Wednesday, April 6, 2022

 

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…the king sent for Shimei and said…‘The day you leave and cross the Kidron Valley, you can be sure you will die; your blood will be on your own head.’ Shimei answered the king, ‘What you say is good. Your servant will do as my lord the king has said.’”
(1 Kings 2:36-38)

King David told Solomon to execute Shimei, Jesus.

But in Your wisdom
Solomon gave Shimei
one way to save his life.

Oh, how I need Your amazing wisdom!

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh:”
(Jonah 3:7)

Unbelievably powerful, Jesus.

An unrighteous king hears a message from You
recognizes the error of his ways
repents of his sin

and here’s the part that nails it:

he makes it public!

As a result, the whole nation repents!

Great God!
Give us leaders of such great courage today.
I beg You!

because that just may be what it takes

to rescue my country and all the nations
from the coming disaster we deserve.

Pray this Lazaroo with grateful thanksgiving:

“…Palal son of Uzai worked opposite the angle and the tower projecting from the upper palace near the court of the guard. Next to him, Pedaiah son of Parosh and the temple servants living on the hill of Ophel made repairs up to a point opposite the Water Gate toward the east and the projecting tower.”
(Nehemiah 3:25-26)

The projecting tower was the king’s last refuge in case of danger.

Jesus, You are not only my last refuge

You are also my first refuge–
my hiding place at all times!

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Rehum the commanding officer and Shimshai the secretary wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king…”
(Ezra 4:8)

I don’t care who wrote such a letter, Jesus.

Whether it’s the president of the United States
one of the 43 kings who reign over countries today
or the high potentate of all high potentates on earth

Nobody – but nobody! –

had dare take a stand against Jerusalem
the holy place You chose above everywhere on earth

for Your Name to dwell.

Go to school as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The king put Benaiah son of Jehoiada over the army in Joab’s position and replaced Abiathar with Zadok the priest. Then the king sent for Shimei and said to him, ‘Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and live there, but do not go anywhere else.’”
(1 Kings 2:35-36)

Solomon was just following his daddy’s orders, Jesus.

King David knew what was necessary
to firmly establish his son’s throne.

I’m ready and willing to follow Your orders, Father!

Command me.
I’ll obey.

Take warning! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He has swallowed up all her palaces and destroyed her strongholds. He has multiplied mourning and lamentation for Daughter Judah. He has laid waste his dwelling like a garden; he has destroyed his place of meeting. The Lord has made Zion forget her appointed festivals and her Sabbaths; in his fierce anger he has spurned both king and priest.”
(Lamentations 2:5-6)

You’re longsuffering, Jesus.

But may I never persist in my sin

because I’m terrified to incur Your wrath!

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed hope:

“The One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their King will pass through before them, the Lord at their head.”
(Micah 2:13)

Wow, Jesus.

What a promise to Your people!
That’s what I need!

There are areas in my life where I’m not making the progress I believe I should.

Go before me!
Break through the gate!
Lead me out!

You’re the only one who can.

Pray this Lazaroo with personal introspection:

“When the news reached the king of Ninevah, he rose from his throne…”
(Jonah 3:6)

That’s rare, isn’t it, Jesus?

Kings don’t usually rise from their thrones
when someone shows up with news.

But this news threatened his city and his own life.

Of course, he could have remained seated
waving it off as preposterous.

But when he heard Ninevah had only 40 days
before You were going to punish their wickedness

down deep, he knew:

They had it coming.

Take each step of your life in faith-filled trust, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“So Benaiah entered the tent of the Lord and said to Joab, ‘The king says, “Come out!”’ But he answered, ‘No, I will die here.’”
(1 Kings 2:30)

Joab deserved to die, Jesus.

But so do I!
We’ve all sinned against You.

Joab wanted to die in Your tent.

So do I, LORD –
to be ushered into heaven in Your Presence!

I’m not afraid to die.

Just hold me real close
during whatever method You choose to get me there.

Be energized, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When the news reached the king of Ninevah…”
(Jonah 3:6)

For the average person

it’s almost impossible to get a message to a big country’s leader, Jesus.

Even if it affects a huge number of people

telling them what they need to hear seems hopeless.

But it isn’t!

Not for You!

If the message on my heart for that leader comes from You

show me how to send it in the most effective way!

I’ll trust You to deliver it.
