Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Do not mortals have hard service on earth? Are not their days like those of hired laborers? Like a slave longing for the evening shadows, or a hired laborer waiting to be paid, so I have been allotted months of futility, and nights of misery have been assigned to me.”
(Job 7:1-3)

Job was telling the truth, Jesus.

That’s exactly how he felt.

He didn’t know it

but that wasn’t how his story would end.

You restored and blessed him with more than before!

No matter what I’m going through now

I trust the beautiful end You have in store for me!

Pray this Lazaroo with undying love:

“Is Israel a servant, a slave by birth?”
(Jeremiah 2:14)

Well…yes and no, Jesus.

Certainly, Your people are called to serve You
urged to serve one another.

But not in this sense.

You’re reminding us that we’re royalty
destined to rule and reign with You!

Of course, those of us who regard ourselves as Your slaves

waiting on You hand and foot
sensitive to Your every whim

are the ones in heaven
who will be the greatest of all.

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“…free those…held in slavery…”
(Hebrews 2:15)

That’s what You’re all about, isn’t it, Jesus?

You love to free slaves.

Yes! – people who are enslaved because of the color of their skin!
But there are other kinds of slavery, too:

financial slavery to crushing debt
the stronger over the weaker
governmental abuse
sex slavery.

But because of its eternal consequences

the worst slavery of all is slavery to sin

Thank God!

Freedom from that slavery
is Your absolute specialty.
