Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice…I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be.”
(1 Kings 3:10-12)

You had already given Solomon enough wisdom to ask for the right thing, Jesus.

He had just enough
to know he needed more.

That’s about how much wisdom I have.

I know for a fact:
I need more!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“Abner said to David, ‘Let me go at once and assemble all Israel for my lord the king, so that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may rule over all that your heart desires.’ So David sent Abner away, and he went in peace.”
(2 Samuel 3:21)

Abner did the right thing for the wrong reason, Jesus.

Soon after speaking these words
it cost him his life.

May I always do what’s right – and for the right reason:

to please You.

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the king summoned Shimei and said to him, ‘Did I not make you swear by the Lord and warn you, “On the day you leave to go anywhere else, you can be sure you will die”? At that time you said to me, ‘What you say is good. I will obey.’”
(1 Kings 2:42)

Solomon set Shimei up for failure, Jesus.

The guy just didn’t have it in himself
to do the right thing for the rest of his life

so his life was cut short.

Got it.

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“…follow along after the girls.”
(Ruth 2:9)

Good advice, Jesus –

so long as the girls are headed in the right direction
so long as they’re doing the right thing.

In this case, they were…and Ruth was safe.

But sometimes the girls – and guys – are headed straight to the pit.
Sometimes what they’re doing is the wrong thing to do.

Which is why when I follow anyone – man or woman –

I’ve got to be doubly…triply
double-dog certain

they’re following You.
