Ask God to do it again, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But even before the fat was burned, the priest’s servant would come and say to the person who was sacrificing, ‘Give the priest some meat to roast; he won’t accept boiled meat from you, but only raw.’”
(1 Samuel 2:15)

That was in blatant disregard to Your command, Jesus!

The people knew it…but they couldn’t do anything about it.

So You removed those who were abusing their power

and replaced them with Samuel
who obeyed You with all his heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with outrageous adoration:

“Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. “
(1 Timothy 2:5-6)

Those last two words, Jesus:

“all people.”

Not merely the rich, famous or powerful.

“all people.”

Not just deacons, elders and pastors.

“all people.”

Not only the beautiful, talented and likable.

“all people.”

You gave Yourself as a ransom

for poor people, nobodies and powerless
waiters, stockbrokers and nurses
ugly people, clumsy and obnoxious

and for me! – the least deserving of

“all people.”

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“…walk in the truth.”
(3 John 1:3)

That’s the only thing worthy of the truth, isn’t it, Jesus?

To walk in it.

Knowing the truth isn’t enough

neither is reading the truth
thinking about the truth

talking the truth
preaching the truth
recommending the truth.

In fact, there’s a sense in which it isn’t the truth

until I walk in it.

Before then, it’s powerless to help me.

Only after I walk in it

does its joy
come alive.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Will not all of them taunt him with ridicule…”
(Habakkuk 2:6)

No one likes to be made fun of, Jesus

especially when the accusations are true.

Most people do it behind the person’s back.

But when they taunt them to their face
they not only think the person is incompetent
but powerless.

In my own strength I’m both, Father:

incompetent and powerless.

Which is why I choose to live my life

in Your ability
fueled by Your incomparable power.
