Sunday, June 20, 2021

 

Pray this Lazaroo in listening obedience:

“Its slave girls…beat upon their breasts.”
(Nahum 2:7)

When men do that, Jesus

they do so in triumph
boasting of their strength.

When women do that

they’re in agony!

How do I respond when I see someone gripped by intense suffering, Father?

Do I have compassion?

Do I check with You
to see if there’s something You want me to do?

True, I can’t bear every burden, fix every problem.

But when You prompt me to act, Holy Spirit

in Your strength, I’ve got to try.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed hope:

“The One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their King will pass through before them, the Lord at their head.”
(Micah 2:13)

Wow, Jesus.

What a promise to Your people!
That’s what I need!

There are areas in my life where I’m not making the progress I believe I should.

Go before me!
Break through the gate!
Lead me out!

You’re the only one who can.

Pray this Lazaroo with personal introspection:

“When the news reached the king of Ninevah, he rose from his throne…”
(Jonah 3:6)

That’s rare, isn’t it, Jesus?

Kings don’t usually rise from their thrones
when someone shows up with news.

But this news threatened his city and his own life.

Of course, he could have remained seated
waving it off as preposterous.

But when he heard Ninevah had only 40 days
before You were going to punish their wickedness

down deep, he knew:

They had it coming.

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-thumping anticipation:

“Deliverers will go up on Mount Zion to govern the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom will be the LORD’s.”
(Obadiah 1:21)

Of course, all the kingdoms of the earth belong to You, Jesus.

And if there are any kingdoms elsewhere in the cosmos
those are Yours, too.

But You’re talking about what happens on our end, aren’t You?

It’s when we make You our LORD
and obey You with all our hearts

that our kingdom
becomes wholly Yours.

Take the words of this Lazaroo as a personal warning:

“On the day I punish Israel for her sins, I will destroy the altars of Bethel; the horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground.”
(Amos 3:14)

You have to be pretty angry to destroy your own altar, Jesus!

But it was because Your people had made a mockery of it.

They kept going through the motions of worshiping You

but their sinful lives made it clear:

Their devoted words
were nothing but lies.

Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Return to the LORD your God…”
(Joel 2:13)

Why would any of us ever leave You, Jesus?

You’re loving, kind, merciful, forgiving, all-wise, all-powerful –

the Only God!

How could any of us who has touched Your greatness

stray from Your loving arms?

But we do.

There’s no excuse. None.

My only hope when I commit the unthinkable
and cave in to Satan’s temptation

is to repent with every fiber of my being
and return to You with all my heart!

Pray this Lazaroo in Godly humility:

“But let no one bring a charge, let no one accuse another, for your people are like those who bring charges against a priest. You stumble day and night, and the prophets stumble with you. So I will destroy your mother—my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.”
(Hosea 4:4-6)

When they ignorantly accused one another Jesus

they weren’t all that unlike us
when we judge our fellow believers.

Like them…

we don’t know what we’re talking about.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.”
(Revelation 2:15-16)

These Nicolaitans were a dangerous bunch, Jesus.

They worshiped You…

right alongside false gods.

So, on the surface, it seemed like they were trying to do right

but by polluting their worship of You with evil

they led many astray.

You alone, LORD!

You alone.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful amazement:

“Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.”
(Daniel 2:31-33)

You told Daniel exactly what King Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream, Jesus!

And no wonder.
You’re the one who gave the dream –

not for him alone
but also for us.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“‘In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.’ These are the people who divide you…”
(Jude 1:18-19)

These people like to divide and conquer, don’t they, Jesus?

They’ll tell any lie
twist any truth
to secure an advantage.

They delight in turning one person against another

leaving them in the driver’s seat with both.

Help me see through them, Holy Spirit!

May I strive for unity
with all who wholeheartedly follow You.
