Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come. In fact, no one can enter a strong man’s house without first tying him up. Then he can plunder the strong man’s house.”
(Mark 3:25-27)

In the midst of defending Yourself against their false accusations, Jesus

You gave us this principle that has guided us for all time.

May my house never be divided!

But if that happens
work through me to restore it.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“But if you will seek God earnestly and plead with the Almighty, if you are pure and upright, even now he will rouse himself on your behalf and restore you to your prosperous state. Your beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous will your future be.”
(Job 8:5-7)

Bildad’s prediction in Job’s behalf came true, Jesus.

I don’t know what my future holds.

But this I believe:

If I seek You earnestly
if with Your help I remain pure and upright

I won’t have to worry.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.”
(Hosea 6:1-2)

I deserve the one, Jesus

but not the other.

My own sins have torn me to pieces.

But healing, revival, restoration?

Those come only
from Your heart
of amazing love!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful anticipation:

“The Lord their God…will restore their fortunes.”
(Zephaniah 2:7)

When things were going well for me, Jesus, I loved it.

I thought it was always going to be that way.

Then I discovered:

It wasn’t.

My sins caused some of it – maybe all of it.

But it might have simply been
that You needed me to fight some of Your battles.

If my suffering is caused by sin, I’ve got to repent!

Either way, I long to live once more

under the spout
where Your glory comes out!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Surely he has done great things! Do not be afraid, land of Judah; be glad and rejoice. Surely the Lord has done great things! Do not be afraid, you wild animals, for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green. The trees are bearing their fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.”
(Joel 2:20-22)

It’s all about You, Jesus

not my circumstances.

It doesn’t matter that my present landscape is barren.

You’re faithful.
You’re on Your way.

As I keep my eyes fixed on You

my desert will blossom!

Never give up! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“All who pass your way clap their hands at you; they scoff and shake their heads at Daughter Jerusalem: ‘Is this the city that was called the perfection of beauty, the joy of the whole earth?’”
(Lamentations 2:15)

People love to attack a fallen hero, Jesus.

Why is that?

Were they jealous of the blessings You bestowed on them?
Are they delighted, now that Your discipline
has brought them down to their level?

What a shock it will be

when You restore the blessings
of Your repentant loved ones!

May the Hope of God rise within you, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘What are those feeble Jews doing? Will they restore their wall? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a day? Can they bring the stones back to life from those heaps of rubble—burned as they are?’…’What they are building—even a fox climbing up on it would break down their wall of stones!’”
(Nehemiah 4:2-3)

Maybe those Jews were feeble, Jesus.

Maybe they couldn’t restore the broken down wall of Jerusalem
in a single day.

But how about in 52 days!!!

They stunned the world

because you were with them.

Pray this Lazaroo with a full heart:

“I hope to be restored to you…”
(Philemon 1:22)

That’s so good, Jesus.

Paul isn’t focused on restoration for his own sake.

His desire is to be restored to his friend and fellow worker.

He knows Philemon has been praying for that very thing.

When I’m down sick or unavailable

who needs my restoration?

Help me get my focus off of myself

and onto You for Your wisdom and strength
so I can be a blessing to others.

Be filled with hope as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I hope to be restored…”
(Philemon 1:22)

Paul was talking about being restored to the church that met in his friends’ home, Jesus.

But those first five words can be prayed by all of us

including me.

You made it clear that following You is not only a joy…

but also requires me to bear a cross – of one kind or another.

Cross-bearing has to be done…but tears me down, Father.

In Your way and time:

Restore me!
