Pray this Lazaroo in trembling awareness:

“The Lord Almighty declares, ‘I will send it out, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of anyone who swears falsely by my name. It will remain in that house and destroy it completely, both its timbers and its stones.’”
(Zechariah 5:4)

Pretty scary, Jesus.

So…what are You going to send out?

That flying scroll that carries a curse.

Is that flying scroll hovering above the earth right now?

…above my country…my family…

…above me?

If so, only this will prevent it from entering:

Repentance and Obedience.

Pray this Lazaroo with passionate gratitude:

“My loved one had a vineyard on a fertile hillside. He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines. He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well. Then he looked for a crop of good grapes, but it yielded only bad fruit.”
(Isaiah 5:1-2)

That’s how beautifully You’ve treated me, Jesus

and how horribly I’ve treated You.

Please forgive me!

I desperately want You to receive full value
for Your loving investment in me!

Pray this Lazaroo, undeterred:

“The king should know that we went to the district of Judah, to the temple of the great God. The people are building it with large stones and placing the timbers in the walls…We questioned the elders and asked them, ‘Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and to finish it?’”
(Ezra 5:8-9)

Every time I launch something for You, Jesus

Satan will raise up someone to question what I’m doing.

Fine. Let them ask away!

…while I keep right on doing what You’ve called me to do.

Pray this Lazaroo to the God who can!

“…Joshua set up at Gilgal the twelve stones they had taken out of the Jordan. He said to the Israelites, ‘In the future when your descendants ask their parents, “What do these stones mean?” tell them, “Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.”’”
(Joshua 4:20-22)

You parted the Red Sea for Moses, Jesus.

You parted the waters of the Jordan for Joshua
as Israel entered the promised land.

You know the waters I have to cross, LORD.

Do it again!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Joshua set up the twelve stones that had been in the middle of the Jordan at the spot where the priests who carried the ark of the covenant had stood. And they are there to this day.”
(Joshua 4:9)

What an awesome reminder of that miracle, Jesus!

We need reminders.

Because too often
we forget.

That usually happens

when we ask You for something that isn’t best
and don’t get it.

Maybe I need to set up some physical reminders

of the things You’ve done for me!

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.

May the Hope of God rise within you, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘What are those feeble Jews doing? Will they restore their wall? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a day? Can they bring the stones back to life from those heaps of rubble—burned as they are?’…’What they are building—even a fox climbing up on it would break down their wall of stones!’”
(Nehemiah 4:2-3)

Maybe those Jews were feeble, Jesus.

Maybe they couldn’t restore the broken down wall of Jerusalem
in a single day.

But how about in 52 days!!!

They stunned the world

because you were with them.

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“In the future, when your children ask you, ‘What do these stones mean?’ tell them that the flow of the Jordan was cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. These stones are to be a memorial to the people of Israel forever.”
(Joshua 4:6-7)

O Jesus!

Help me build into the fabric of my life
memorials to the wonderful times

when You intervened in my life!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Joshua…said to them, ‘Go over before the ark of the Lord your God into the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, to serve as a sign among you.’”
(Joshua 4:4-6)

You had just worked an amazing miracle, Jesus.

They set those stones in the middle of the Jordan
to make certain they would always remember what You did.

What stones do I need to set – and where?

Pray this Lazaroo with unswerving dedication:

“If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work.”
(1 Corinthians 3:12-13)

You know when I’m following You with my whole heart, Jesus.

But when I stay true to you through the fire –

temptations, trials, disasters, heartbreak –

everybody else can see it, too.
