Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“Now the priests who carried the ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything the Lord had commanded Joshua was done by the people, just as Moses had directed Joshua. The people hurried over…”
(Joshua 4:10)

It’s incredibly hard to stand still, Jesus –

especially when everybody else is hurrying past
under the shadow of a towering wall of water!

But may I move when You say move

and stay put when You so command.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything…”
(Titus 2:9)

This isn’t a pro-slavery command, Jesus

it’s a pro-obedience command.

The law required slaves to obey their masters.

You were telling them to obey the law.

Yes, you told slaves to obtain their freedom when possible

but while they remained slaves
You wanted the slaves who bore Your Name
to be the best slaves possible

in order to win their masters and everyone else
to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in chastened awareness:

“…Jesus asked them, ‘Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?’ But they remained silent. He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, Stretch out your hand.’ He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored.”
(Mark 3:4-5)

That’s how You work nearly every miracle, Jesus –

in spite of our animosity, doubt and outright disbelief.

True, some miracles are granted to those who have faith

which comes directly from You

as a gift.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah.”
(2 Kings 3:11)

Humble beginnings, Jesus.

Elisha started out as a servant to the great prophet Elijah
a step-and-fetch-it, a do-whatever-I’m-told.

He remained in that role until You called his master home.

And then he demonstrated that he had been paying attention:
He asked for a double portion of Elijah’s spirit.

Wow. Where did that come from?

And You granted his request!

You really love to reward the humble.
