Pray this Lazaroo with total focus:

“This is what the Lord Almighty says…”
(Haggai 1:2)

Those seven words, Jesus

should make every person on the planet come to attention.

We’re sick to death of hearing the opinions of human beings.

We’ve got to hear from You!

Human beings guess…suppose…surmise…assume…speculate.

You Know.

When You explain something

That’s the way it is.

When You say something is going to happen

it does.

When You make a promise

You keep it.

When You say, “You’re forgiven!”

I am.

Tremble in Awe, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…‘as surely as I live,’ declares the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, ‘surely Moab will become like Sodom, the Ammonites like Gomorrah’…”
(Zephaniah 2:9)

When You say, “…as surely as I live,” Jesus

it’s a done deal!

because You are more Alive
than all the rest of us put together.

You’re the Living One!

You’ve Always Been
You Are
You’ll Always Be.

Everything and everyone who draws a breath on this planet –

or anywhere else in Your vast creation

received their life from You.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“So he said to me, ‘This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel:”‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,”’ says the Lord Almighty’.”
(Zechariah 4:6)

Those are Your precious words to me, Jesus!

It’s not how strong I am.
It’s not how smart I am.
It’s not how much money I have.
It’s not how well-connected I am.
It’s not the sophistication of my tools.
It’s not how many degrees I’ve earned..

It’s You!

Always and forever:

It’s You!

Watch it happen! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will leave you no prey on the earth.’”
(Nahum 2:13)

What happens to a carnivore when there’s no longer any prey, Jesus?

If they have nothing to kill

they can’t eat.

If they have nothing to eat

they’ll die.

You’re slow to anger, abounding in love.

But when Your patience is met by unrelenting, vicious behavior

You pronounce sentence.

Pray this Lazaroo with an open heart:

‘In that day each of you will invite your neighbor to sit under your vine and fig tree,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”
(Zechariah 3:10)

That is a day, Jesus! A very special day.

It’s one thing to have enough for my family, my friends and myself.

But it’s a new day
when I have enough to share with my neighbors
some of whom, perhaps, I hardly know.

You love generosity.

But there’s a reason for that:

Unimaginable Generosity is who You Are!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“’…I have chosen you,’ declares the Lord Almighty.’”
(Haggai 2:23)

To be chosen for something good is gratifying, Jesus.

But to be chosen by You?

Priceless.

Before You ever chose me

You knew me
because You made me.

You knew the countless sins I would commit
the mistakes I’d make

and still You chose me!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

No matter what I face

no matter what trials You take me through

may I never forget that eternally life-changing fact!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions.’”
(Nahum 2:13)

The young lions are the future, Jesus.

If You punish a nation by destroying the best of their youth
You doom that country to become increasingly weak

eventually to disappear

which is exactly what happened in 637

to the once great city of Nineveh.

O God!

I beg You: Spare our young lions!

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned wonder:

“‘See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are seven eyes on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,’ says the Lord Almighty, ‘and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day.’”
(Zechariah 3:9)

It was revealed to Joshua that You are that Cornerstone, Jesus!

The seven spirits of Your Father that range throughout the earth

were upon You

as You gave Your life on the cross

to remove the sin of all who believe
in a single day.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“‘On that day,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘I will take you, my servant Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will make you like my signet ring’…”
(Haggai 2:23)

Why were You so pleased with this governor of Judah, Jesus?

It was because He had the courage to obey You!

He delivered Your warning to Your people
even though it was the last thing they wanted to hear.

He valued pleasing You
ahead of pleasing them.

Take sober warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke…’”
(Nahum 2:13)

This is what happens when You’re against someone, isn’t it, Jesus?

You destroy the things they trust.

Why?

Because they’re trusting them instead of You!

They fail to see that their “chariots” – or whatever they’re trusting –

are gifts from Your hand
given to them in love.

But when they make Your gifts their god

they quickly find out:

You will tolerate no gods before You!
