Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

Her leaders judge for a bribe, her priests teach for a price, and her prophets tell fortunes for money. Yet they look for the Lord’s support and say, ‘Is not the Lord among us? No disaster will come upon us.’”
(Micah 3:11)

There’s a difference, isn’t there, Jesus –

between leaders who have a heart
to do Your work

and those who refuse to do Your work
unless they’re paid.

Give us leaders whose sole motivation

is to please You!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Hear this, you priests! Pay attention, you Israelites! Listen, royal house! This judgment is against you: You have been a snare at Mizpah, a net spread out on Tabor. The rebels are knee-deep in slaughter. I will discipline all of them.”
(Hosea 5:1-2)

What we think is hidden, Jesus

isn’t.

What we think we do in secret

is fully known by You.

So when we hide things and do them in secret

may they only be good and not evil

to be showered with blessings from above!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe, and tell them to take up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, from right where the priests are standing, and carry them over with you and put them down at the place where you stay tonight.”
(Joshua 4:2-3)

You wanted to make certain they remembered this miracle, didn’t You, Jesus?

May I never, never, never forget all You have done for me

…even if I have to erect a pile of stones somewhere!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate entreaty:

“Let the priests, who minister before the Lord, weep between the portico and the altar. Let them say, ‘Spare your people, Lord. Do not make your inheritance an object of scorn, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, “Where is their God?”’”
(Joel 2:17)

You’re telling us how to pray, Jesus!

that is…if we want You to hear us:

with sincere, heartfelt, passionate weeping
with deep concern for the honor of Your Great Name.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Above the Horse Gate, the priests made repairs, each in front of his own house. Next to them, Zadok son of Immer made repairs opposite his house.”
(Nehemiah 3:28-29)

It’s great to help others, Jesus

but You expect me to take care of my own business too.

True, I’m to put others ahead of myself.

But if I neglect my own responsibilities

I cease being a blessing
and become a burden.

It’s kind of tricky, isn’t it?

Please help me navigate it properly!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away…while the water flowing down to the…Dead Sea was completely cut off.”
(Joshua 3:15-16)

You did this for at least two reasons, Jesus:

1. To rescue your people
2. To show us forevermore that if You can do this…

You can do anything!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He then made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. In them the things to be used for the burnt offerings were rinsed, but the Sea was to be used by the priests for washing.”
(2 Chronicles 4:6)

So even back then, Jesus

You were demanding clean offerings

clean hands.

But only You

can purify these flawed, imperfect gifts
I offer up to You.

Only You

can cleanse these hands of mine
that have done so much sinning!

Pray this Lazaroo with unwavering trust:

“…as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the Lord—the Lord of all the earth—set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream will be cut off and stand up in a heap. So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant went ahead of them.”
(Joshua 3:13-14)

It’s that first step of obedience, isn’t it, Jesus!

It’s hard – especially when it’s counterintuitive

politically incorrect.

But if by faith I take that step

amazing things will happen!

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“Next to him, Meremoth son of Uriah, the son of Hakkoz, repaired another section, from the entrance of Eliashib’s house to the end of it. The repairs next to him were made by the priests from the surrounding region.”
(Nehemiah 3:21-22)

That was so kind of Meremoth, Jesus –

repairing a section of the wall in front of someone else’s house
the priests from the surrounding regions doing the same.

O God!

Please help me set aside self-care
long enough to care for others.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Do not run until your feet are bare and your throat is dry. But you said, ‘It’s no use! I love foreign gods, and I must go after them.’ As a thief is disgraced when he is caught, so the people of Israel are disgraced—they, their kings and their officials, their priests and their prophets.”
(Jeremiah 2:25-26)

I don’t have to sin, Jesus!

No matter how many times I’ve caved in to Satan’s temptation

Your power is still mine

to say NO!
