Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“You have wearied the Lord with your words. ‘How have we wearied him?’ you ask. By saying, ‘All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord’…”
(Malachi 3:17)

That’s like saying You don’t care, Jesus!

…that Your Word doesn’t matter
that we can live any old way we like

while You shrug with a half-smile on Your face
and say, “Oh, well, that’s cool.”

But it isn’t.

For those who deliberately flaunt Your loving laws

one day they will discover to their horror:

it’s very, very hot.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…Satan blocked our way.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:18)

That’s not supposed to happen, Jesus –

not to Your people
especially not to the likes of the Apostle Paul.

What’s going on, here?

You’re infinitely more powerful than Satan!
How in the world could he ever –

Oh. Right.

Satan can never block my way
unless You let him

because You didn’t want me to go there to begin with!

So when I can’t get where I want to go, I don’t need to worry.

You’ve got a better plan.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But when they cried out to the Lord, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, who saved them. The Spirit of the Lord came on him, so that he became Israel’s judge…So the land had peace for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died.”
(Judges 3:9-11)

It takes a leader, doesn’t it, Jesus?

One who is totally committed to You.

Raise up for us those leaders, Father!

Oh, how we need them.

Pray this Lazaroo with, “Now, I get it!” faith:

“…God…has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days to come.”
(Daniel 2:28)

I know You’re always right, just and fair, Jesus!

So why did you show the future to a heathen king?
There are a whole lot of righteous people who don’t get a peek!

Hmmm.

Is it to demonstrate that everyone belongs to You –
the good, bad and ugly?

Oh. Wait a minute!

Through Daniel and this sketchy king
You’re revealing the future to all of us!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“I have promised to bring you up out of your misery…”
(Exodus 3:17)

I’m not in misery all the time, Jesus…

but when I’m in it…oh, do I want to get out of it!

The thing is, I don’t have the control I like to think I have.

When I’m really hurting, I can’t think clearly.
Sometimes what I try to stop the pain

makes it worse.

I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You!
