Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“I urge, then, first of all, that…prayers…be made for…kings…”
(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

At first blush, this can seem a bit…

irritating, Jesus.

Why would You command even the poorest subjects to pray for their king?

Here they are, powerless, struggling just to make ends meet

while kings can do pretty much whatever they want
and live in jaw-dropping luxury.

Maybe that’s why –

so kings will exercise their power for the good of their people
and become willing to share the wealth.

 Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith: 

“Abner…made him king…”
(2 Samuel 2:8-9)

What happens when one man kings another, Jesus?

Not much.
Not for long.
Not for good.

You…are the kingmaker.

What You say, goes.
Whom You anoint, reigns.

Everyone else is a pretender, a wannabee.

Those who believe they can make it happen
are asking to be taught a lesson

by You.

Whoever attempts to promote someone without first checking for the unmistakable signs of Your approval

is setting himself up for a rude awakening.

 Stand in awe of God as you pray this Lazaroo: 

“Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever…he sets up kings …”
(Daniel 2:20-21)

Just one more reminder, Jesus:

You…Are All-Powerful.

Kings are the most powerful people on earth.

They answer to no one.
They are mind-blowingly wealthy.
If they want something, they get it.
On a whim, they can spare or end someone’s life.
Not only are they above the law…they are the law.

But no one gets to be a king

unless You say so.
