Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“’You will overthrow every fortified city and every major town. You will cut down every good tree, stop up all the springs, and ruin every good field with stones.’ The next morning, about the time for offering the sacrifice, there it was—water flowing from the direction of Edom! And the land was filled with water.”
(2 Kings 3:19-20)

That didn’t make sense, Jesus!

Water? They hadn’t asked for water!

But water was exactly what they needed.

Like I, so often…

they just didn’t know it.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…they will take possession of it.”
(Deuteronomy 1:39)

This was a brutally hard thing for Your people to hear, Jesus.

The thing they had worked so hard to accomplish
the land they had journeyed so long to enter

was not to be theirs.

Instead, it was their children who would enjoy it.

Their sin had robbed them of Your promise.

May that not be true of me!

But may all those who come after me

indeed possess what You have promised!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…the unfaithful will be torn from it.”
(Proverbs 2:22)

Torn from what, Jesus?

Well, specifically, the land they live on.

But that could have broader meaning, couldn’t it?

Not everyone is a landowner.

But we all have something or someone that represents home to us.

That’s what the unfaithful will be torn from, isn’t it?
the very thing that means the most to them.

I need to stop applying this to other people, don’t I?

Help me be faithful!
