Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’ Make the work harder for the people so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies.”
(Exodus 5:8-9)

But they weren’t lazy, Jesus!

They were obeying You!

May I always remember:

Even when I’m doing exactly what You desire
this can happen to me.

When others judge me harshly

should I quit obeying You?

No!
Never.

Pray this Lazaroo in Spirit-led recognition:

“But require them to make the same number of bricks as before; don’t reduce the quota. They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’ Make the work harder for the people so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies.”
(Exodus 5:8-9)

Pharaoh was 100% wrong about their being lazy, Jesus.

He was wrong about their motivation, too.
They did intend to go sacrifice to You.

But his instincts were right about one thing:

Thanks to Your amazing power
They weren’t about to come back.

Pray this Lazaroo filled with confidence in God’s protection:

“But the eye of their God was watching over the elders of the Jews, and they were not stopped until a report could go to Darius and his written reply be received.”
(Ezra 5:5)

May Your Eye keep watching over me, Jesus!

Keep me working, serving!
Perform Your wonders!

May I never let Satan’s threats deter me from Your mission.

Yes, he has power
but You have all power!

Greater are You in me

than the doomed one who terrorizes the world.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness…”
(James 2:22-23)

How does anyone know I have faith in You, Jesus?

For that matter, how do I know I have faith?

It’s not my talk, is it?
Talk’s cheap.

It’s by my actions!

What I do and don’t do
provide a telling glimpse
into my heart.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Her mother-in-law asked her, ‘Where did you glean today? Where did you work? Blessed be the man who took notice of you! Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the one at whose place she had been working. ‘The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,’ she said. ‘The Lord bless him!’ Naomi said to her daughter-in-law.”
(Ruth 2:19-20)

Totally orchestrated by You, Jesus –

ancestors of Mary and Joseph…

and You!

Gotta love Grandpa Boaz and Grandma Ruth!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep gratitude:

“…my fellow workers.”
(Philemon 1:24)

What would I do without them, Jesus?

Sometimes they’re official –
employees working for the same company.

Sometimes they’re volunteers –
serving alongside me in Your church.

Sometimes they’re family members
helping me tackle a project
too big for me to handle alone.

They might even be a stranger
who helps me change a tire
when they see me on the side of the road.

But of this I’m certain:

every one of them has been sent by You.

(1 Samuel 2:11)

It doesn’t matter what the org chart says, Jesus

I’m always ministering before You.

If I’m serving in a church

I’m ministering before You.

If I’m punching the clock in a factory

I’m ministering before You.

If I’m issuing orders from an all-glass corner office on the 92nd floor

I’m ministering before You.

If I working all by myself at home

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…that day sweeps on like chaff…”
(Zephaniah 2:2)

I’ve had a few days that felt like that, Jesus.

Nothing but chaff –
the sweepings of husks separated from the grain.

Filler…but no nutrition.
Activity…without accomplishment.

But the wild thing is that even on those days

You were with me.
You’re always with me!

And You – Redeemer of Lost Days –

were working, teaching, moving even then –
one more step in Your loving, lifelong plan

to transform me into Your amazing likeness.
