Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…the God of…Isaac…”
(Exodus 3:16)

It helps to see who You’re willing to be associated with, Jesus.

Isaac was born when his dad Abraham was 100 years old
and his mother Sarah was 90!

Abraham almost sacrificed him
because that’s what he thought You wanted.

No, Isaac wasn’t perfect.

He lied about his wife.
Played favorites with his children.

But You accomplished great things through this flawed man.

Please, LORD!

Accomplish great things through even more deeply flawed

me.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful recognition:

“…as prescribed by David king of Israel.”
(Ezra 3:10)

It takes somebody to prescribe things, Jesus.

If there’s nobody to do that…

…chaos.

That’s why You provide these people to us.

Sometime we’re grateful
sometimes not.

Our problem is that no matter who You provide

they’re not perfect.
They make mistakes.

We think to ourselves, “I could do better.”

Maybe we’re right.

But if You appointed us to the job

there would be people thinking

“I could do better.”

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…you will walk in the ways of the good…”
(Proverbs 2:20)

That’s my desire, Jesus!

to walk in the ways of the good.

There are a lot of evil people out there

the worst of whom only pretend to be good.

But You’ve always had men, women, young people

who love You with all their hearts
who want with everything in them to please You.

They aren’t perfect.

Neither am I.

But in Your strength

we’re giving it all we’ve got.
