Pray this Lazaroo in sudden realization:

“‘I demand one thing of you: Do not come into my presence unless you bring Michal daughter of Saul when you come to see me.’ Then David sent messengers to Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, demanding, ‘Give me my wife Michal, whom I betrothed to myself for the price of a hundred Philistine foreskins.’”
(2 Samuel 3:13-14)

David refused to abandon his wife, for whom he risked his life, Jesus

just as You refuse to abandon me
for whom You paid with Your life!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“When the king of Moab saw that the battle had gone against him, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed. Then he took his firstborn son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall.”
(2 Kings 3:26-27)

Desperate people who don’t worship You

end up doing terrible, unthinkable things, Jesus!

May my faith be in You alone

causing me to do only what is good!

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.”
(Proverbs 3:11-12)

I don’t like to be disciplined, Jesus.

It’s upsetting to realize You’re disappointed in me!

As a result, my immaturity is showing, isn’t it?

I should welcome Your correction.
It’s a chance to learn, grow, improve.

It’s evidence that You love me –
that in me You find delight!

Allow yourself to be overwhelmed with gratitude as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the LORD has a charge to bring against you…”
(Hosea 4:1)

Could there be anything more chilling, Jesus –

than, seated at the defendant’s table,
to look over at the other table and recognize with a shock:

You’re the Prosecutor.

You’re also the Jury of Father, Son, Holy Spirit

and Judge.

What would be my chances of an acquittal?

Zero. You don’t bring a charge unless it’s true.

…until I see my  Defender seated next to me

and it’s You.

Pray this Lazaroo in jaw-dropping awe:

“He built the Most Holy Place…twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.”
(2 Chronicles 3:8)

It was also twenty cubits high, Jesus.

Wow.

That has to mean something.

You’re the Creator of Everything, the Ultimate Designer.

You could have given any shape You wanted to Your Most Holy Place

and You chose a perfect cube.

Why?

Well, it was copy and shadow of what’s in heaven –

the symbol of Your Presence among Your people.

Father…Son…Holy Spirit
Length…Width…Height
Different…Equal…

One.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“This is my name forever, the name you shall call me from generation to generation.”
(Exodus 3:15)

It’s not the only Name we call You, Jesus…Yeshua…Messiah…Savior…

Abba…Adonai…Creator…El Shaddai…Alpha and Omega…
Father…Son…Holy Spirit…LORD…God –

but it’s the one that says it all:

I AM.

You’re…Always.

Without beginning.
Without end.

No wonder I worship You!

No wonder I praise You for everything good
call on You when I’m in distress!

No wonder I desire deep, daily, moment-by-moment, 1on1 relationship with You!

You ARE.

Pray this Lazaroo in sudden awareness:

“…refusing to be comforted…”
(Matthew 2:18)

When the pain is that great, Jesus…

only then does someone refuse to be comforted.

It’s hard on their friends and family, who desperately want to help.

But far harder on the one who grieves.

The words, gestures, offers to “let me know if you need anything”

are not only useless

they’re offensive –

as if such things could somehow lessen the agony.

Is that how You felt, Father

when they crucified Your Son?

Pray this Lazaroo in unfettered worship:

“…Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son…”
(2 John 1:3)

That pretty much says it all, Jesus.

That’s what makes You different
raises You above the rest.

All the rest.

You’re not just the wisest person to ever live

not only the greatest prophet
not merely a stunning miracle-worker.

You’re The One.

The One to whom all the other (true) prophets pointed.
The One who makes demons tremble.

Alpha, Omega, Yahweh, Adonai, Creator, Abba

The only One who can save

me.
