Pray this Lazaroo in unwavering trust:

“On the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the palace, in front of the king’s hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the hall, facing the entrance. When he saw Queen Esther standing in the court, he was pleased with her…”
(Esther 5:1-2)

Help me follow Esther’s example, Jesus.

Before You required her to break the rules and ask for an exception

she followed Your rules religiously

planting the good seed
one day
she would need to reap.

Pray this Lazaroo in shocked sobriety:

“Ehud then approached him while he was sitting alone in the upper room of his palace and said, ‘I have a message from God for you.’ As the king rose from his seat, Ehud reached with his left hand, drew the sword from his right thigh and plunged it into the king’s belly.”
(Judges 3:20-21)

May I never need to receive a message like that from You, Jesus!

Help me heed Your Word and obey it completely

the first time.

Pray this Lazaroo with responsive faith:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

No more sitting down, Jesus!

Sure, there’s a time to kick back and relax

But there comes a day when that time ends

when it’s time to get back to work.

Not my work.
Yours.

Which time am I in, Holy Spirit?

Show me!

I don’t want to be standing when You’ve told me to sit
nor sitting when You’ve told me to “Rise!”
