Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“As soon as the copy of the letter of King Artaxerxes was read…they went immediately to the Jews in Jerusalem and compelled them by force to stop. Thus the work on the house of God in Jerusalem came to a standstill…”
(Ezra 4:23-24)

That doesn’t seem right, Jesus!

All because of a letter?

No.

You’re in Total Control.
You’re Sovereign!

Never let me forget that when something happens or doesn’t happen

it’s because You caused it
or allowed it.

Pray this Lazaroo with rock-solid confidence:

“Jerusalem has had powerful kings ruling over the whole of Trans-Euphrates, and taxes, tribute and duty were paid to them. Now issue an order to these men to stop work, so that this city will not be rebuilt until I so order…Why let this threat grow, to the detriment of the royal interests?”
(Ezra 4:20-22)

The men who wrote this letter were Your enemies, Jesus.

They knew exactly how to get the king to halt the rebuilding of Your temple.

Paused? Yes.
Stopped? Never!

Pray this Lazaroo with keen anticipation:

“The letter you sent us has been read and translated in my presence. I issued an order and a search was made, and it was found that this city has a long history of revolt against kings and has been a place of rebellion and sedition.”
(Ezra 4:18-19)

They found what they looked for, Jesus.

If I’m looking for something bad in someone

I’ll probably find it.

If I’m looking for something good in the same person

there it will be.

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.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. Such confidence we have through Christ before God.”
(2 Corinthians 3:3-4)

That’s the letter of recommendation I desire, Jesus!

I’m not asking for a piece of paper.

All I need to see

is that through me

You continue to transform lives!

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:15)

It didn’t make any difference, Jesus –

whether it was something Paul wrote
or what they heard him say.

Their job was to stand firm and hold fast!

I didn’t get to hear what Paul said.

But I’m pretty sure it sounded a whole lot like what he wrote. 😉
