Pray this Lazaroo with attentive dedication:

“…praying in the Holy Spirit…”
(Jude 1:20)

There’s praying in myself, Jesus –

Telling You what I want
letting You know what I’m thinking.

That’s okay.
You understand.

But there’s another level, isn’t there?

It’s asking what You want

listening to Your reply in my heart
listening to Your reply as I study Your Word
listening to Your reply through life events
listening to Your reply through Your servants

all the while measuring everything I’m hearing

by the whole of Scripture.

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.”
(Jude 1:18)

In that case, Jesus…

these must be the last times.

I see both happening:

People making fun of the truths of Your Word

Men and women living blatantly disobedient lives
with no thought of You.

In this environment, taking my stand for You and Your Word is extremely unwelcome.

But that’s okay.

I’m standing.
I’m not gonna budge.
I know how this ends.

Know it! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the palace collapses.”
(Nahum 2:6)

When that happens, Jesus

it leaves people in shock.

These high and mighty leaders with their unimaginable resources

seem untouchable.

But they’re not.

One nudge from Your pinkie finger
one puff of air from your left nostril

is all it takes!

…and down they go –

while those who revere Your Name and trust in You alone

enjoy incomprehensible blessing and protection!

You’ve warned me:

In this world I’ll have trouble.

But that’s okay.

Because You overcome the world!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“They…forded the river…”
(Joshua 2:23)

– the very river the entire army was about to cross on dry land, Jesus!

But this first time
Joshua’s two spies had to get wet to make it across.

No surprise.

You do it both ways, don’t You?

Sometimes You perform a miracle.

But most of the time You supply the strength
for me to accomplish Your tasks the old-fashioned way

requiring me to work, stretch, struggle.

But that’s okay!

Either way…

I win.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“You suffered…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:14)

So have I, Jesus –

oh, not as badly as some of Your people…
but I’ve suffered more than I thought I would.

Not that You didn’t warn me!

You made it clear that as Your child
I’ve got to pick up my cross and follow You.

I just didn’t know it would be this heavy.
I didn’t know I would have to carry it so far

or so long.

But that’s okay –

‘cause You’re worth it.
