Pray this Lazaroo in growing wisdom:

“…the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me. Then I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, ‘The work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall. Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!’”
(Nehemiah 4:18-21)

 

Nehemiah knew what to let go of, Jesus

and what to keep close.

The trumpeter was key!

With so much at stake

No way was Nehemiah going to send him
to somebody else!

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.”
(Colossians 2:4)

As hard as it is to imagine, Jesus

there are so many people out there
who enjoy deceiving others.

That’s the work of Satan, isn’t it?

They don’t believe in You.
They couldn’t!

If they believed in a God who sees and hears and knows all

there’s no way in this world
they would practice this kind of deceit.

I’m begging You, Father:

Protect me!

Pray this Lazaroo with sincere humility:

“…Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us.”
(3 John 1:9)

Well, no, Jesus.

There was no way on earth
that Diotrephes would welcome John.

If he did, he’d no longer be first!

By comparison to the famous Apostle John
Diotrephes would appear to be a nobody.

He’d rather miss out on John’s incomparable teaching

than give up his position of self-importance.

May I never miss out on your best

because of my pigheaded desire to be a big shot.

May God fulfill every dream He gives you in this brand-new year!

“Are you able to tell me what I saw in my dream and interpret it?”
(Daniel 2:26)

The king’s astrologers were terrified by this question, Jesus.

Interpret the dream? Sure. They could make something up.
But tell the king what he had actually dreamed? No way!
Why…why…that would take a miracle!

So does accurately interpreting somebody’s dream.
The king knew that…and they were busted.

Daniel, however, could do both, because You revealed them to him.

In 2020, Great God –
Be my Revealer!

Pray this Lazaroo in deep repentance:

“Let all their wickedness come before you…”
(Lamentations 1:22)

I’ve been angry enough at someone to pray that prayer of Jeremiah’s Jesus…

but I’m not going to do it.

No way.

You’ve made it clear:

What goes around, comes around.

I don’t want all my wickedness to come before You!

There’s way too much of it.
Still.

My prayer is the one You prayed on the cross:

“Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
