Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not? Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have begun to reign—and that without us!”
(1 Corinthians 4:7-8)

My stupid, blind, unreasoning pride, Jesus!

Where does it come from?

Certainly not from You.

I do believe

it has the sulfurous smell from the fiery pits of hell
all over it.

Feel God’s pain to the bone, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“During the reign of King Josiah, the Lord said to me, ‘Have you seen what faithless Israel has done? She has gone up on every high hill and under every spreading tree and has committed adultery there. I thought that after she had done all this she would return to me but she did not, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw it.”
(Jeremiah 3:6-7)

When we turn to other gods, Jesus –

anything or anyone we value ahead of You –

in Your eyes
it’s adultery

and Your eyes are the only eyes that matter.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Rehum the commanding officer and Shimshai the secretary wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king…”
(Ezra 4:8)

I don’t care who wrote such a letter, Jesus.

Whether it’s the president of the United States
one of the 43 kings who reign over countries today
or the high potentate of all high potentates on earth

Nobody – but nobody! –

had dare take a stand against Jerusalem
the holy place You chose above everywhere on earth

for Your Name to dwell.

Shake your head in disbelief, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“At the beginning of the reign of Xerxes, they lodged an accusation against the people of Judah and Jerusalem. And in the days of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel and the rest of his associates wrote a letter to Artaxerxes. The letter was written in Aramaic script and in the Aramaic language.
(Ezra 4:6-7)

Anyone who lodges a complaint against Your people, Jesus

is hurling an accusation against You.

Last time I checked

that’s not an especially good idea.

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“Then the peoples around them set out to discourage the people of Judah and make them afraid to go on building. They bribed officials to work against them and frustrate their plans during the entire reign of Cyrus king of Persia and down to the reign of Darius king of Persia.”
(Ezra 4:4-5)

It’s hard to believe there are people like this, Jesus

until one of them comes after me.

What would I do, if I didn’t have You!

You alone are my Protector and Deliverer!

Monday, January 20, 2020

 

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“He has brought down rulers from their thrones…”
(Luke 1:52)

Yes, You have, Jesus –

far more times than any of us can imagine.

In fact, every ruler whose reign has ever ended

has been brought down by You.

You raise ‘em up
You set ‘em down.

But the reverse is also true:

No one can take down someone You’ve set up:
not by vote, assassination, impeachment or coup.

No ruler is perfect.

But each is perfect
for Your plan.

Pray this Lazaroo…overwhelmed:

“He will give strength to his king…”
(1 Samuel 2:10)

That’s a great promise, Jesus

I’m really happy for the kings You’ve chosen.
They certainly need Your strength.

If only I were a king!

Wait a minute…

I am!

You’ve elevated me way above my station.

You’ve made it clear: I will reign in Your kingdom!

Oh, not on my own.
In and through You.

You’ve promised:

If I endure, I’ll reign with You –

not temporarily –

but forever and ever.

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…in the seventh year of his reign.”
(Esther 2:16)

That’s the thing about reigns, Jesus…

I know how long I’ve been doing this
but have no idea how much longer it’ll last.

Well…that’s not exactly accurate.

I may have an idea, all right
but my idea may be flat-out wrong.

I may think this is a temp job

and do it the rest of my life.

I may think I’ve got job security

and be on the street tonight.

Pray this Lazaroo in complete submission:

“Ish-Bosheth son of Saul…reigned two years.”
(2 Samuel 2:10)

Wasn’t much of a reign, was it, Jesus?

You had given the kingdom to David, not him.

As is always the case when a pretender ascends to the throne

his days were numbered.

You’re the one who raises one person to power and sets aside another.

No one can thwart Your sovereign will!

How long will I reign over my little kingdom, LORD?

Not one day longer than You say.
