Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“This company of Israelite exiles…will possess the land…”
(Obadiah 1:20)

That’s not usually how it works, Jesus…

until You step in and work it!

Normally, exiles have no power, no leverage to make anything significant happen.

They’re outsiders. Most of them merely subsist.

But when You rise up in the heart of the weak to do great and mighty things

who can stop them?

Rise up within me, LORD!

In Your love, wisdom and power
rise up within me.

Ready yourself for battle, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Abner looked behind him and asked, ‘Is that you, Asahel?’ ‘It is,’ he answered.”
(2 Samuel 2:20)

This was a death-chase, Jesus.

A war was raging.
Asahel was intent on killing Abner.

I, too, am in a war – a holy war – the war of the ages.

The forces of good against the forces of evil.
Angels and believers against demons and God-haters.
My Christian self against my sinful human nature.

O God! Rise up within me in power!

Help me win.

Pray this Lazaroo with focused intent:

“…on behalf of Christ…”
(Philippians 1:29)

That’s how I intend to live my life, Jesus –

on behalf of You.

I want everything I think, say and do

to be for You.

If that truly is my heart, my plan, my goal, my purpose –

how can I go wrong?

There’s no higher reason for living

no greater way to move singlemindedly through each day.

Rise up within me in power, Holy Spirit!

so that my intent

will be fulfilled in action.
