Try to visualize the moment, as you pray aloud the words of this Lazaroo:

“…the angel who was speaking to me said, ‘Proclaim this word…’”
(Zechariah 1:14)

Wouldn’t that be somethin’, Jesus –

have an angel show up
tell me exactly what to say?

I’d be bursting with confidence after that!

full of wonder
stoked with conviction.

I mean, just the idea of seeing an angel with my own two eyes –

even if he never said a word –
would be enough to change my life.

But to have him give me a message to deliver?

I’d tell everybody.

It wouldn’t be as hard to speak up for You, then.

People would have to believe me!

The moment I explained that an angel appeared to me and told me…

…oh.

Dear God.

They wouldn’t believe me, would they?
Not a word of it.

Guess I’d better not wait on an angel…

to motivate me to speak up for You.

Your Word

is enough.
