Pray this Lazaroo in Godly humility:

“…some of the priests took care of mixing the spices. A Levite named Mattithiah, the firstborn son of Shallum the Korahite, was entrusted with the responsibility for baking the offering bread. Some of the Kohathites, their fellow Levites, were in charge of preparing for every Sabbath the bread set out on the table.”
(1 Chronicles 9:30-32)

Are these tasks too mundane for a priest, Jesus?

Not at all!

No matter how small

whatever I do for You is holy and significant.

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!

Pray this Lazaroo with wholehearted adoration:

“And so you stayed in Kadesh many days – all the time you spent there. Then we turned back and set out toward the wilderness along the route to the Red Sea, as the Lord had directed me. For a long time we made our way around the hill country of Seir.”
(Deuteronomy 1:46-2:1)

Wherever You lead, LORD

whenever You say.

I’m sticking with You

no matter how long it takes.

My life-goal is simple:

Stay in lock-step with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…turn around and set out toward the desert…”
(Deuteronomy 1:40)

That was a hard instruction to hear, Jesus.

Your people had been headed toward the Promised Land.
But their spies convinced the majority they couldn’t succeed.

So You told them to do an about face
and head back into the desert.

I, too, have encountered a few of Your instructions that are hard to hear.

But O God! Hard or no –

may there be none I’m unwilling to obey.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out…”
(Joshua 3:1)

That’s a good time to set out, isn’t it, Jesus?

An early start can lead to an earlier finish!

Of course, due to health issues, family dynamics or work schedule

not everyone can.

You know that and make it up to them.

However, there are those who can and should rise early

but are too lazy to do so.

May I never be counted in their number.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“So at that time King Joram set out from Samaria and mobilized all Israel.”
(2 Kings 3:6)

King Joram was right to set out, Jesus

and You gave him the victory he sought.

However, people sometimes set out for the wrong reasons.

Because they don’t have Your help
they experience defeat.

It’s exciting to set out, Father!

but not unless I’m absolutely certain it’s what You want me to do.

Apart from Your favor

there is no victory.
