Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the One who’s in charge:

“I saw that all who lived and walked under the sun followed the youth, the king’s successor. There was no end to all the people who were before them. But those who came later were not pleased with the successor.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:15-16)

And that’s how it goes, doesn’t it, Jesus?

None of us is on top forever.
Some of us are on top

never.

People are fickle.
Times change.

But You never do!

I am so thankful that it’s not the crowd
that decides my fate.

It’s You!

Thank God, it’s You.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Thirty-eight years passed from the time we left Kadesh Barnea until we crossed the Zered Valley. By then, that entire generation of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the Lord had sworn to them. The Lord’s hand was against them until he had completely eliminated them from the camp.”
(Deuteronomy 2:14-15)

To say You’re not pleased when Your people refuse to obey You, Jesus

is putting it mildly.

When You tell me to jump, I’m asking only one question:

“How high?”

 Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul: 

“Meanwhile, Abner…had taken…”
(2 Samuel 2:8)

There’s always a “meanwhile,” isn’t there, Jesus?

No matter how many victories You give me

somebody isn’t pleased
was fervently hoping I’d lose

while Satan is always there
plotting to take back the ground I won.

It’s good to celebrate every victory, praising Your great Name

but I never want to take it to the point where I brag and gloat

because there’s always a “meanwhile”
lurking just around the corner.
