Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“…the royal secretaries…wrote out in the script of each province and in the language of each people all Haman’s orders to the king’s satraps, the governors of the various provinces and the nobles of the various peoples. These were written in the name of King Xerxes himself and sealed with his own ring.”
(Esther 3:12)

What an immense amount of harm this king allowed, Jesus

all because he trusted the wrong man.

Give me supernatural discernment, Holy Spirit!

My trust is in You alone.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.”
(1 Timothy 2:15)

Oh, what a solemn, sacred trust, Jesus!

Help me to come to Your Word with an open mind and heart!

May I never approach with my own agenda
seeking to proof-text what I already believe.

Instead, may I open my Bible in true humility
eager to be taught.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.”
(2 Peter 2:9)

You’re not one-sided, Jesus.

You do good to those who put their trust in You.

But You also hold punishment in store
for those who defy You.

You are pure love.

But that means You hate evil
because evil is the enemy of love.

If love is to triumph – and it will –

evil must be smashed.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“For in Scripture it says: ‘See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.’”
(1 Peter 2:6)

You’ve made that promise directly to me, Jesus.

Hallelujah!

I will never be put to shame
because I trust in You!

You’re my Only Hope
because You’re all I need.

On You, my Solid Rock I stand.
All other ground is sinking sand.

Pray this Lazaroo in wisdom, self-control and total trust:

“…forfeiting your life.”
(Habakkuk 2:10)

That seems incomprehensible, Jesus!

Why would anyone forfeit his life?
Why would she throw away something so precious?

But people do it all the time. Why?

Because Your gracious gift of life can become soiled, feel ruined

by sin…pain…sickness…fear…hatred…loss.

And in the darkness that our emotions and Satan himself brings

people can lose hope
abandon perspective
think irrationally

act hastily…foolishly.

But You’re the Giver of life!

My life is not my own to take.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding…”
(Proverbs 3:5)

It’s impossible to trust You with all my heart, Jesus…

while leaning on my own understanding.

My understanding trips me up because it’s woefully incomplete.

I don’t have the whole picture.
My brain’s not that big.

One day in heaven I’ll be like You.
Maybe then I’ll see it for what it is.

But that day is not yet.

Help me trust!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your being:

“…to escape the clutches of ruin!”
(Habakkuk 2:9)

That’s certainly what I desire, Jesus!

Disappointments, losses, hard times and setbacks are one thing.
Ruin…hangs around a little longer.

However: Anyone who foolishly attempts to escape the clutches of ruin in their own strength

is cursed, marked, doomed to failure –

not only on this earth
but eternally.

There is only one way to escape the clutches of utter, total, permanent ruin:

Trust in You.
Trust in You.
Trust in You.

Pray this Lazaroo in spiritual sobriety:

“…you have destroyed…cities…”
(Habakkuk 2:8)

The mistake I make, Jesus

(among many others)

is in focusing on the evil that Satan and his minions have done

rather than on the reality of what You will do in response
when the times have reached their fulfillment.

I see too small a section of the puzzle

to be able to fathom how You’re piecing it all together.

So what am I left with, Father?

Trust.
Rock-solid trust.

In the end
You win.

Pray this Lazaroo in determined belief:

“…she continued to follow Mordecai’s instructions as she had done when he was bringing her up.”
(Esther 2:20)

But she was now queen, Jesus!

She didn’t have to do what Mordecai said.

Besides, he was only her cousin who took her in after the death of her parents.

But she had lived long enough under Mordecai’s care
to see that he was a true man of God.

O LORD!

May I be such a light for those around me!

Allow your excitement to build, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“… the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”
(Revelation 2:7)

Because Adam and Eve sinned, Jesus

You banished them from the Garden of Eden.

Our sin became so great that You caused a flood to destroy the earth

and with it, the Garden of Eden.

Oh, but that paradise and tree of life on earth

was only a copy of the one in heaven!

reserved for all
who put their faith, hope and trust
in You.
