Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ Then Samuel said, ‘Speak, for your servant is listening.’ And the Lord said to Samuel: ‘See, I am about to do something in Israel that will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle.’”
(1 Samuel 3:10-11)

When You call, Jesus

I’m ready to listen.

Something tells me that whatever You have to say

will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, ‘Here I am; you called me.’ Then Eli realized that the Lord was calling the boy. So Eli told Samuel, ‘Go and lie down, and if he calls you, say, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”’ So Samuel went and lay down in his place.”
(1 Samuel 3:8-9)

I haven’t heard Your Voice calling me by name in the night, Jesus.

So let me begin the conversation:

“Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”

Beg God for deliverance, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Arise, cry out in the night, as the watches of the night begin; pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint from hunger at every street corner.”
(Lamentations 2:19)

If You see we won’t obey You for our own sakes, Jesus

you motivate us to obey You
for the sake of our children

knowing full well that when we’re listening to Satan
even that may not be enough.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen.”
(1 Timothy 2:14)

In the midst of my heated discussions it’s easy to forget, Jesus:

there can be collateral damage.

I may be able to walk away from an argument no worse for the wear.

But what about the other person?
What about those listening in?
What about those who hear about it?

Yup.

Gotta stop quarreling with other Christians about words.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“‘Hear this and testify against the descendants of Jacob,’ declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.”
(Amos 3:13)

Some things are hard to hear, Jesus

so we plug our ears
making noises with our mouths
engaging in frenetic activity

trying to keep Your warnings of doom
from penetrating all the way to our hearts
forcing us to repent.

But it’s the hardest messages from You

that I most need to hear, isn’t it?

Forgive me, LORD!
I’m listening.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“The elders of Israel will listen to you.
(Exodus 3:18)

That had to greatly encourage Moses, Jesus!

After all, he had been gone from Egypt 40 years.

When he left, he was fleeing for his life
having killed an Egyptian for beating a fellow Israelite.

Of course, when he showed up at the age of 80

no one would recognize him, no one would believe him

unless You made them.

Intervene in my life like that, Father!

Stay on the edge of your seat as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘We have found the Messiah’ (that is, the Christ).”
(John 1:41)

Did they find You, Jesus…

…or did you find them?

Maybe You helped them find You

because they were looking for You.

That’s who I want to be!

Constantly watching for You, listening for You
eyes wide open, antennae all the way up
hanging on Your every Word.

I don’t want to miss a thing You’re doing

in this world
for those I love
in, through and for me.

Pray this Lazaroo in trusting obedience:

“Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.”
(Ezekiel 3:6)

So I’ve got to ask, Jesus –

Why didn’t you send Ezekiel to people who would listen?

I ask this because I have a little experience with trying to communicate

with people who don’t listen

not because they can’t hear
but because they refuse to.

It’s frustrating!

Even so…

…if You want me to share Your truth with people like that

I’ll do it.
