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 with white-hot fervor:

“But when [they] heard that the repairs to Jerusalem’s walls had gone ahead…they were very angry. They all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and stir up trouble against it. But we prayed to our God and posted a guard day and night to meet this threat.”
(Nehemiah 4:7-9)

This is what I need to do, when the forces of evil come against me, Jesus:

Pray my head off.
Take every action You show me to take.
Trust You for the outcome.

Pray this Lazaroo with desperate desire:

“He has overthrown you without pity, he has let the enemy gloat over you, he has exalted the horn of your foes. The hearts of the people cry out to the Lord. You walls of Daughter Zion, let your tears flow like a river day and night; give yourself no relief, your eyes no rest.”
(Lamentations 2:17-18)

It’s hard to see You like this, Jesus

but absolutely essential.

You’re giving me a clear picture of the horror of sin.

May I hate and reject the sin in my life
as much as You do.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“The Lord…did not withhold his hand from destroying. He made ramparts and walls lament; together they wasted away. Her gates have sunk into the ground; their bars he has broken and destroyed.”
(Lamentations 2:8-9)

It’s easy to have a false idea of who You are, Jesus

believing You would never do such a thing.

Are You the Creator – the very embodiment – of love?

Yes! Absolutely! Hallelujah!

But maybe I’d better get a firmer grasp

on how much You hate sin!

Let realization dawn, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The stones of the wall will cry out…”
(Habakkuk 2:11)

I’m guessing this is poetic language, Jesus

though if anyone can get stones to talk
and understand their language

it’s You!

Still…I’ve entered places for the first time

and felt something I couldn’t define.

Each home, each building has a certain feel, doesn’t it?

Maybe its stones, bricks, plaster, shiplap
are crying out!

If the walls of my home could talk, Father

what would they say about me?

Pray this Lazaroo in humble awareness:

“He overlaid the ceiling beams, doorframes, walls and doors of the temple with gold…”
(2 Chronicles 3:7)

Well…not exactly, Jesus.

Solomon ordered the work done.
It wouldn’t have happened without him.

But he didn’t personally overlay anything.
It was the workers who performed that golden task.

Leaders are essential…

…but so are workers.

Neither can succeed without the other.

Sometimes I’m the leader
sometimes I’m a worker.

But in whichever role I serve You

remind me to respect the other.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“I struck all the work of your hands with…mildew…”
(Haggai 2:17)

I hate mildew, Jesus –

that smelly, fungal invasion that leaches onto
my clothing, leather, paper – even the ceilings, walls and floors
of my home.

Mildew forms in dank, dark places, hidden away from fresh air and sunlight.

O God! Bring the fresh air of Your Word into my life.

And may the cleansing radiance of Your sun shine

…on every pocket of infestation
that needs to be eradicated.
