Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Joshua said to the Israelites, ‘Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. This is how you will know that the living God is among you and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites.”
(Joshua 3:9-10)

You don’t have to prove to me that You’ll do what You say, Jesus.

But You do.
Time and time again.

Thank You, LORD!
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Set your heart for rapid response as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then you replied, ‘We have sinned against the Lord. We will go up and fight, as the Lord our God commanded us.’”
(Deuteronomy 1:41)

They changed their minds too late, Jesus!

Their opportunity came and went.

True, You’re a forgiving God.

You give us chance after chance
over and over again.

But there’s a time for everything.

Sometimes, my refusal to obey the first time
causes me to miss my window of opportunity.

Instant obedience

is the only wise way, isn’t it?

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But when the judge died, the people returned to ways even more corrupt than those of their fathers…”
(Judges 2:19)

It’s clear, Jesus.

Righteous leadership is essential!

Left to ourselves, we stray.

We don’t like to think of ourselves as sheep
but history proves it over and over again:

We need a shepherd.

You Are the Great Shepherd!

We are Your sheep, the precious people of Your flock.

But please, LORD:

Give us holy, pure, wise, faithful, Godly undershepherds.

Pray this Lazaroo with undying certainty:

“…through the…enduring word of God.”
(1 Peter 1:23)

A lot of things come and go, Jesus

but Your Word stays.

With every passing year

the words of most become increasingly irrelevant.

But with every passing millennium

Your Word is proven perfect
over and over again.

Since by faith in You I’m going to live forever

I may as well live by the only Word
that does the same.

The grass withers and the flowers fall

but Your Word endures forever.

Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“Therefore, remember…”
(Ephesians 2:11)

Every day of my life You’re teaching me, Holy Spirit.

Every day of my life You’re guiding me, Father –

through the things that make life sweet
through the challenges that make life hard
through the daily grind that makes up most of life.

I don’t want You to have to repeat Yourself over and over again.

I want to squeeze every ounce of lesson
You pack into every moment of my life, Jesus

and never forget.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed determination:

“…he brought him to Jesus.”
(John 1:42)

May that be said of me, Jesus –

over and over and over and over and over and over
and over and over and over and over and over again!

Satan wants to shut my mouth.

I’m ashamed to admit he’s won that battle countless times.

But I don’t want him to have the last laugh!

Give me the wisdom, courage and compassion
to bring to You two precious souls

for each one I’ve missed.
