Pray this Lazaroo with holy boldness:

“Then the royal officials at the king’s gate asked Mordecai, ‘Why do you disobey the king’s command?’”
(Esther 3:3)

The answer was simple, Jesus:

Haman was a wicked man who did not deserve to be honored.

But that wasn’t even the biggest reason.

Mordecai wasn’t about to bow down to anyone but You.
The fact that it was the king who ordered it was irrelevant

even though it might cost Mordecai his life.

May that kind of holy courage be mine!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“As Your Majesty was lying there, your mind turned to things to come, and the revealer of mysteries showed you what is going to happen.”
(Daniel 2:29)

You Are the Revealer of Mysteries, Jesus!

You revealed Your mysteries to Daniel
so he could reveal them to the king.

I have no idea why You wanted King Nebuchadnezzar to know these things.

But I can guess at why You revealed them to Daniel:

He’s one of your all-time favorites!

…as I long to be.

“Elisha said to the king of Israel, ‘Why do you want to involve me? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother.’ ‘No,’ the king of Israel answered, ‘because it was the Lord who called us three kings together to deliver us into the hands of Moab.’”
(2 Kings 3:13)

Israel’s king was unfaithful to You, Jesus.

Only when he’s in trouble does He turn to You.

Many people do the same!

May I never be one of them.

Stand corrected, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“It is decreed…”
(Nahum 2:7)

I can issue decrees all day long, Jesus –

as can every king, president, prime minister, chairman
judge, commissioner, CEO, leader and person on earth.

But not one blessed thing will happen

unless YOU decree it!

Sometimes we get pretty full of ourselves

carried away by our titles, positions, responsibilities
all too often forgetting to Whom we’re responsible:

You.

When we fail to check in with the Boss of all bosses

our puny decrees fall flatter than a flitter.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Adonijah shall be put to death today!”
(1 Kings 2:24)

He just couldn’t leave it alone, could he, Jesus?

Adonijah wanted to be king.
He was the son of David.

As far as he was concerned
Absalom’s death meant he was next in line.

There was just one problem with his plan:

You had chosen Solomon to be king.

The way I reason everything out has no bearing whatsoever, does it?

Your wise, all-knowing will is the only thing that matters.

Pray this Lazaroo…overwhelmed:

“He will give strength to his king…”
(1 Samuel 2:10)

That’s a great promise, Jesus

I’m really happy for the kings You’ve chosen.
They certainly need Your strength.

If only I were a king!

Wait a minute…

I am!

You’ve elevated me way above my station.

You’ve made it clear: I will reign in Your kingdom!

Oh, not on my own.
In and through You.

You’ve promised:

If I endure, I’ll reign with You –

not temporarily –

but forever and ever.

Keep your eyes wide open as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Abner son of Ner, together with the men of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, left Mahanaim and went to Gibeon.”
(2 Samuel 2:12)

The problem wasn’t with Abner’s battle plan, Jesus.

The thing that was about to get his army defeated and him killed

was that he was backing the wrong king.

That’s the only thing that can get the people I love defeated and me killed, Father

it we cave in to Satan’s temptation
and back the wrong king.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…she won his favor and approval…”
(Esther 2:17)

There’s no doubt about it, Jesus –

Esther was beautiful.
Beautiful people win favor and approval more easily than others.

But that’s not why this king was so attracted to her.

You made it happen.

You positioned her in the crucially important role

You designed her to carry out.

If I’m obedient, You’ll grant me the favor and approval I need

to carry out every task and role You’ve designed for me.
