Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Take the Levites for me in place of all the firstborn of the Israelites, and the livestock of the Levites in place of all the firstborn of the livestock of the Israelites. I am the Lord.”
(Numbers 3:41)

Yes, You Are LORD, Jesus!

When You struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, you set apart for Yourself every firstborn in Israel, whether human or animal, declaring them to be Yours –

just as You are the firstborn of all creation.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“Some of the Kohathite clans were given as their territory towns from the tribe of Ephraim.”
(1 Chronicles 6:66)

Of course, the Kohathites were one of the four main divisions among the Levites, Jesus.

They took care of the vessels and objects within Your sanctuary.

As with the other Levites, although You gave them cities within the other tribes of Israel

You didn’t give the Kohathites land of their own.

You were their inheritance –

as You are mine!

Pray this Lazaroo with keen anticipation:

“But many of the older priests and Levites and family heads, who had seen the former temple, wept aloud…
(Ezra 3:12)

Everybody else was shouting with excitement and praise, Jesus.

Why not the older ones, too?

Because it reminded them of what they had lost.

Theirs were tears of remembrance –

the good times they had experienced
having no temple all this time.

I too have wept over what I’ve lost…

but believe I’ll weep again – in grateful joy.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But many of the older priests and Levites and family heads…”
(Ezra 3:12)

The world doesn’t look the same to all of us, does it, Jesus?

My age and level of responsibility
significantly affect how I see what’s happening.

There’s a danger with that, isn’t there?

At each stage of life I’m tempted
to think my perspective is superior to others’.

In some instances, that may be true.

But show me how much of the time
it’s nothing but self-centered delusion.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“The total number of Levites counted at the LORD’s command…”
(Numbers 3:39)

It’s a good thing You’re the one who ordered this, Jesus

because the Levites were not to be counted.

That’s a bit confusing.

First You tell them not to do something
then You order them to do it.

What am I to do with such commands?

Obey them each time!

Don’t do it when You say not to.
Do it when You command it.

Pretty simple, really.

Allow your soul to sound His praise in this Lazaroo:

“the Levites…with cymbals…”
(Ezra 3:10)

These aren’t the crash cymbals used in a modern rock band, are they, Jesus?

The Levites struck two cymbals together
each about 3-4” wide.

One cymbal made the “A” sound
the other the sound of “C”.

Played together, they created a beautiful, ringing, melodic harmony

which, in the Davidic Cypher, equates to Your Name, YAH.

When they sounded their cymbals, they were playing Your Name –

Hallelu-YAH!

O God!

May my life “sound” Your Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“The Merarites were appointed to take care of…all its equipment…”
(Numbers 3:36)

How would it feel to have that assignment, Jesus?

This was no piece of cake job.

The Israelites were homeless in the wilderness.

The moment You told them to move, they had to pack up.

When you told them to stop

it was time to set up all over again…
…and again…and again…

So I’m not surprised to find that my assignment

is no piece of cake either.

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“…all Levites – joined together in supervising…”
(Ezra 3:9)

I’m sure some Levites were awesome supervisors, Jesus

some less so
some not so much

and some totally stunk it up.

At least, based on my experience, that’s my guess.

Anytime everybody in one family does the same thing
some are better than others

and there’s always at least one clunker in the bunch.

For all I know

I’m that clunker in my bunch.

If so…
thanks for including me.
