Pray this Lazaroo in happy anticipation:

“So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:23-24)

What a heartbreak, Jesus!

We’ve been mourning that loss ever since.

But in heaven –

for those of us who’ve placed our trust in You –

that longing will be fulfilled!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Do not mortals have hard service on earth? Are not their days like those of hired laborers? Like a slave longing for the evening shadows, or a hired laborer waiting to be paid, so I have been allotted months of futility, and nights of misery have been assigned to me.”
(Job 7:1-3)

Job was telling the truth, Jesus.

That’s exactly how he felt.

He didn’t know it

but that wasn’t how his story would end.

You restored and blessed him with more than before!

No matter what I’m going through now

I trust the beautiful end You have in store for me!

Pray this Lazaroo in patient trust:

“…out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you. For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul, did, again and again…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:17-18)

Sometimes it’s not how badly I want it, is it, Jesus?

I mean…if the Apostle Paul intensely desired something and didn’t get it –

I’m talking about the man
through whom You raised the dead

the man through whom You gave us
more New Testament books than any other –

then, who am I to think I might not have to wait

for Your perfect time.

Mean it all the way to the marrow of your bones, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:17)

Paul really wanted this, Jesus

and You didn’t give it to him!

Through Paul You gave us much of the New Testament!

Through Him You healed the sick and raised the dead!

But when he passionately desired something outside of Your will

You said no.

Just because he thought it was best didn’t mean it was.

So, please, LORD:

Do the same for me.
