Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“When all the work Solomon had done for the temple of the Lord was finished, he brought in the things his father David had dedicated—the silver and gold and all the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of God’s temple.”
(2 Chronicles 5:1)

Father and son working together, Jesus

to honor You.

Although that’s beautiful

it doesn’t always happen.

But You’re my Father

and I’m Your child.

What do you say let’s work together
to bring glory to Your holy Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“The king also said to Shimei, ‘You know in your heart all the wrong you did to my father David. Now the Lord will repay you for your wrongdoing. But King Solomon will be blessed, and David’s throne will remain secure before the Lord forever.’”
(1 Kings 2:44-45)

For a long time, it looked like Shimei would get away with his detestable behavior, Jesus.

But You saw to it:

He didn’t.

Those who refuse to trust in You

never do.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“All the objects that Huram-Abi made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan…All these things…amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze could not be calculated.”
(2 Chronicles 4:16-18)

Whatever I do for You, spend for You, sacrifice for You, Jesus

is never enough!

But oh, the joy of giving my all

knowing my all

is all You require!

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.

Never forget! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…Shimei stayed in Jerusalem for a long time. But three years later, two of Shimei’s slaves ran off…At this, he saddled his donkey and went…in search of his slaves.”
(1 Kings 2:38-40)

Solomon warned Shimei not to leave the city, Jesus!

After three years, the warning had faded in his mind…

but not in Solomon’s.

Shimei’s faded memory cost him his life.

It doesn’t matter how long ago You tell me something, does it, Father?

Your Word still stands.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“Daughters of Jerusalem, come out, and look, you daughters of Zion. Look on King Solomon wearing a crown, the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding, the day his heart rejoiced.”
(Song of Songs 3:10-11)

Is she referring to Solomon’s first wedding, Jesus?

Because in disobedience to You
he took many wives – 700 in all.

Many of them were idol worshipers, who in time turned his heart from You.

Remind me, Jesus!
More…isn’t always best.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate commitment:

“King Solomon made for himself the carriage; he made it of wood from Lebanon. Its posts he made of silver, its base of gold. Its seat was upholstered with purple, its interior inlaid with love.”
(Song of Songs 3:9-10)

What was the costliest ingredient in Solomon’s carriage, Jesus?

It wasn’t the wood, silver, purple or gold, was it?

It was the love.

May the interior of my life – the heart of me – my very being!

always be inlaid with love.

Go to school as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The king put Benaiah son of Jehoiada over the army in Joab’s position and replaced Abiathar with Zadok the priest. Then the king sent for Shimei and said to him, ‘Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and live there, but do not go anywhere else.’”
(1 Kings 2:35-36)

Solomon was just following his daddy’s orders, Jesus.

King David knew what was necessary
to firmly establish his son’s throne.

I’m ready and willing to follow Your orders, Father!

Command me.
I’ll obey.

Pray this Lazaroo in awed anticipation:

“Who is this coming up from the wilderness like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and incense made from all the spices of the merchant? Look! It is Solomon’s carriage, escorted by sixty warriors, the noblest of Israel, all of them wearing the sword, all experienced in battle, each with his sword at his side, prepared for the terrors of the night.”
(Song of Songs 3:6-8)

What an amazing sight, Jesus!

But a far better one is coming

when I follow You on Your great white horse

into end-time battle!

Pray this Lazaroo with profound gratitude:

“Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.”
(Song of Songs 3:5)

It sounds like Solomon’s wife may have learned the hard way, Jesus:

Don’t force it.

Or even better:

You can’t force it!

True love is a choice.

Which is why I’m thrilled to realize:

You chose to love me!

which is why with all my heart:

I choose to love You!
