Pray this Lazaroo in Godly determination:

“The priests, who were heads of families, numbered 1,760. They were able men, responsible for ministering in the house of God.”
(1 Chronicles 9:13)

Make me like these, Jesus –

able…and responsible –
ministering in Your house.

Only You – the Giver of every good gift –

can make me competent to do Your Work!

Help me be truly responsible –

fulfilling my duties day after day, without fail.

And no matter where You place me in Your Church –

from the front to the back pew –

use me to minister to Your precious people!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Deliverers will go up…”
(Obadiah 1:21)

Oh, how we need that to happen, Jesus!

Please! Bring it to pass!

Raise up deliverers for our entire world

for our nation
for our churches
for our families
for me.

Oh, now, wait a minute.

Do You desire to use me as one of Your deliverers?

Will You call me to go up in behalf of others

even as others are going up in behalf of me?

Now, that is a surprise!

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…called, ‘uncircumcised’ by those who call themselves ‘the circumcision’…”
(Ephesians 2:11)

There’s something about being one of the “haves,” Jesus

that Satan can twist to make us want to exclude

the “have nots.”

But that’s not who You Are!

You’ve called us who have so much
to be generous with those who have so little.

You despise the exclusive clique mentality!

You urge us to include everyone

who trusts and obeys You.

Use me
to lift others up!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Many nations will be joined with the LORD in that day…”
(Zechariah 2:11)

What a glorious day that will be, Jesus.

I can’t wait!

The golden vision of nation after nation

willingly aligning themselves with You as their God?

Breathtaking.

At the very least –

I long to see with my own eyes
my nation join herself to You.

That…would take a miracle.

But if it pleases You to do so
use me to help bring it to pass.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed determination:

“This is the gospel that you heard…”
(Colossians 1:23)

Your gospel, Jesus!

The good news that You Are God
that You came to this earth as a baby
grew to be a man who taught truth, worked miracles
who died on the cross for the sins of all who believe
who will return to take Your followers to heaven forever.

Everybody’s got to hear your gospel!

Please use me however You wish, Father
to bring that miracle to pass.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast hope:

“…the God of Abraham…”
(Exodus 3:16)

Abraham had flaws, Jesus.

He argued with You.

He was so afraid You wouldn’t protect him

that He told everyone his beautiful wife was his sister
and allowed her to be taken by another man to be his wife.

Twice.

But You chose him anyway

to be the founding father of Your great nation of Israel.

Like Abraham, I too am flawed, Father!

But You’ve chosen me anyway.
Use me for Your glory!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“I will surely raise my hand against them…”
(Zechariah 2:9)

Don’t want to ever hear that, Jesus!

Not as it pertains to me.

I need Your hand to

save me
comfort me
sustain me
strengthen me
guide me
protect me
show me
cover me
lift me
help me.

But dear God!

May Your hand never be raised against me.

Against my enemies, though?

Tempting.
But You’ve told me to pray for them.

Nah. Don’t.
Go ahead and bless them.
