Pray this Lazaroo in humble trust:

“Sisera, meanwhile, fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because there was an alliance between Jabin king of Hazor and the family of Heber the Kenite. Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, ‘Come, my lord, come right in. Don’t be afraid.’ So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.”
(Judges 4:17-18)

Yes, she did, Jesus –

right before she drove a tent peg through his head.

What I think I know won’t save me.

Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“‘If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him so that another man has sexual relations with her, and this is hidden from her husband and her impurity is undetected…and if feelings of jealousy come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure—or if he…suspects her even though she is not impure—then he is to take his wife to the priest.”
(Numbers 5:11-15)

Such things have to be settled, Jesus.

Sometimes by You through us
sometimes by You alone

in Your Way
in Your Time.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“’Who are you?’ he asked. ‘I am your servant Ruth,’ she said. ‘Spread the corner of your garment over me, since you are a guardian-redeemer of our family.’”
(Ruth 3:9)

Ruth took a huge chance, Jesus.

She entered the place where women never went

to offer herself to become the wife
of a man who hadn’t asked her to marry him.

But this was Your doing!

When You tell me to do something unusual or impossible

rules no longer apply.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. [Friends]: Eat, friends, and drink; drink your fill of love.”
(Song of Songs 5:1)

You’ve placed the Song of Songs in the middle of our Bibles, Jesus

to remind us You’re the Creator of sexual love

and when it’s kept between a husband and wife

it’s beautiful and holy!

Rejoice! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Because he had nine hundred chariots fitted with iron and had cruelly oppressed the Israelites for twenty years, they cried to the Lord for help. Now Deborah, a prophet, the wife of Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that time. She held court under the Palm of Deborah…and the Israelites went up to her to have their disputes decided.”
(Judges 4:3-5)

Jabin’s army commander Sisera didn’t know it yet, Jesus

but his nine hundred iron chariots were like straw before You.

May I never forget:

The Power is with me
when I’m with You!

Pray this Lazaroo in the holy fear of the LORD:

“…the Lord met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. ‘Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,’ she said…referring to circumcision.”
(Exodus 4:24-26)

Had Moses refused to obey You because of his wife, Jesus?

Putting anyone or anything ahead of you is idolatry.
You weren’t about to send an idolater to Egypt to free your people!

Is there anything or anyone with whom I’m committing idolatry, Holy Spirit?

If You were that tough on Moses…

Pray this Lazaroo in mounting anticipation:

“Adam made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, ‘With the help of the Lord I have brought forth a man.’ Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil.”
(Genesis 4:1-2)

And so the stage is set, Jesus.

It begins with joy
and ends with tragedy.

Two very different boys
two very different outcomes.

Only You know why life sometimes works this way

but one day, You’ll explain it all!

Pray this Lazaroo in gratitude and awe:

“When Boaz had finished eating and drinking and was in good spirits, he went over to lie down at the far end of the grain pile.”
(Ruth 3:7)

If Boaz thought he was in good spirits then, Jesus

You were about to take him to a whole ‘nuther level!

He was about to get a new wife and a new life.

Moreover, You were adding him to the bloodline
from which You would one day be born –

and by Your blood shed on the cross
I’ve been born again!

Lean heavily on God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now the overseer… must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)
(1 Timothy 3:2,4-5)

What a challenge for this man You’ve called into Your service, Jesus!

You know how Satan attacks him, his wife
and every member of his family.

Protect them, LORD!

Pray this Lazaroo – overwhelmed with gratitude:

“Moses took his wife and sons, put them on a donkey and started back to Egypt. And he took the staff of God in his hand. The Lord said to Moses, ‘When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do.’”
(Exodus 4:20-21)

You not only sent Moses on a mission, Jesus

but You equipped him with everything he needed to succeed –

just as You’ve done for me.
