Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening; my heart began to pound for him. I arose to open for my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with flowing myrrh, on the handles of the bolt.”
(Song of Songs 5:4-5)

May I always be that excited to spend time with You, Jesus!

I confess that’s not always the case.

Sometimes I close my eyes in prayer perfunctorily.

Sometimes I open my Bible out of obligation.

In those moments, I’ve forgotten with Whom I’m about to spend time:

The King of kings!
The LORD of lords!

May my heart pound within me!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
(Colossians 1:27)

Absolutely, Jesus!

A rich, glorious, glory-anticipating total mystery
that I gladly embrace with all my heart

to the very marrow of my bones:

You!

The Creator of the universe and everything in it
King of kings and LORD of lords
Savior of everyone in the world who believes

living in me!

Oh, HALLELUJAH!

Pray this Lazaroo with bulldog faith:

“…they run along the wall.”
(Joel 2:9)

What a terrifying sight, Jesus!

It’s bad enough to see my enemies coming in the distance.

But when they’re here, scaling my wall?

Huh-uh.
It’s over.

Except it’s not.

Humanly speaking, yes.
But it’s never too late with You.

Is anything too hard for the King of kings and LORD of lords?
Nope.

By every appearance it can look like all is lost.

But You’re the God who can disappear every appearance.

Pray this Lazaroo with joy:

“He proclaimed a holiday…”
(Esther 2:18)

Well good for him, Jesus!

Kings have the power to do that.

I, on the other hand, can’t just up and declare one of those

no matter how badly I need it.

Wait a minute.

You’re King of kings and LORD of lords.

I’m more than a subject in Your kingdom
I’m Your dearly loved child.

So when You see that I really need a holiday

I know somehow, someway
You’ll proclaim it.
