Sunday, July 9, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with eyes riveted on Jesus:

“In the middle of the night something startled the man; he turned—and there was a woman lying at his feet!”
(Ruth 3:8)

Ruth had broken protocol, Jesus.

It was not their custom to allow women in the threshing floor.

But Ruth’s mother-in-law Naomi told her to do it

and as far as Ruth was concerned, that trumped their customs.

You honored it!
Naomi was right.

Give me the wisdom to know when to do what’s expected

and when You’ve called me
to take the road less traveled.

Pray this Lazaroo with informed faith:

“I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.”
(Revelation 3:9)

Only You can do something like that, Jesus.

You can make any of us do anything –

anytime You please.

Of course, most of the time You give us information

leaving it up to us to make the right choice.

Get motivated! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Through us, You’re establishing Your kingdom, Jesus

and You don’t want us dragging our feet.

You want us on high alert.
Time’s a-wasting!

People are dying without hearing about You!
Others are on the fence, for lack of good information.

It’s my job to do something about that.

You’ve told me to go tell.
I’d better get with it.

Go and do likewise, after you pray this Lazaroo!

“One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. He said to his servant Gehazi, ‘Call the Shunammite.’ So he called her, and she stood before him. Elisha said to him, ‘Tell her, “You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now what can be done for you?”’”
(2 Kings 4:11-13)

I love that Elisha did that, Jesus.

So do You.

You had prompted this Shunammite woman to be good to Elisha

so he wanted You to do something special for her!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Now a man who was lame from birth…asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, ‘Look at us!’ So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.”
(Acts 3:2-5)

He was about to get something all right, Jesus…

but it wasn’t from Peter and John.

It was from You!

He wanted money, but what he needed was to be healed.

That’s what I desire, Father!

Not what I think I want
but what You know I need.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…the Lord your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as he has now done. The Lord said to me, ‘See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.’”
(Deuteronomy 2:30-31)

When You’re ready to do something, Jesus

You don’t have to wait for a person to cooperate.
You can make them do it.

Great God!

I’m cooperating!

Make me what You want me to be!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“So the Israelites did as Joshua commanded them. They took twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, as the Lord had told Joshua; and they carried them over with them to their camp, where they put them down.”
(Joshua 4:8)

What a powerful symbol and reminder of Your miracle, Jesus!

But there was something even more important that happened on that day:

They did exactly what You told them to do.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep gratitude:

“What about your brother, Aaron the Levite? I know he can speak well…You shall speak to him and put words in his mouth; I will help both of you speak and will teach you what to do. He will speak to the people for you, and it will be as if he were your mouth and as if you were God to him.”
(Exodus 4:14-16)

When I can’t do what You’ve told me to do, Jesus

You always provide someone –

or something –

to help me.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…it is defiled…”
(Micah 2:10)

Someone or something starts out fine, Jesus

and then it’s defiled.

A word or action displeasing to You is all it takes

for it to be defiled.

You give me specific instructions about life

that You intend for me to follow.

When I don’t do it the way You prescribe

I defile the very thing You’ve provided to be a blessing.

How foolish.
What a waste!

May I never, ever defile one of Your gifts!

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit

“Afterward the Israelites will return…”
(Hosea 3:5)

That’s what it usually takes for me to return to You, Jesus…

a sign, a tragedy, an event, a message
something that rocks my world.

Only then do I do what I should have done without any push from You:

Turn around, head in the right direction
all the way back home.

Of course, if we’re talking what I should have done…

I never should have strayed from You to begin with.
