Pray this Lazaroo – overwhelmed with gratitude:

“…all the ungodly acts they have done…”
(Jude 1:15)

They say the Internet never forgets, Jesus –

that once I post something
it’s out there, somewhere in the ether, forever.

That used to be the case with my ungodly acts, didn’t it?

But no more.

In sorrow and repentance I’ve confessed my sins to You.

You’ve forgiven me.
Forever.

You’ve permanently, irrevocably blotted them out of Your mind

completely removing them –
as far as the east is from the west.

Pray this Lazaroo with rock-solid confidence:

“Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.”
(Ezekiel 3:9)

When anyone else tells me not to be terrified

they’re wasting their breath, Jesus.

Fear is an automatic response to such people.

But when You tell me not to be afraid of them, that’s different.
You’re telling me You will protect me.

The better I know You, the more clearly I understand:

There’s absolutely no reason for me to be afraid.

Pray this Lazaroo with undying love:

“…what you are doing for the brothers and sisters…”
(3 John 1:5)

Of course, ultimately, it’s for You, Jesus…

but this is one of the best ways to touch Your heart.

When I’ve done anything – even something small! –

for one of the least of Your children

as far as You’re concerned
I’ve done it for You.

I need to remember this

because it’s hard to “help You out” with anything
seeing as how You can do it all
by Yourself.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled zeal:

“I have been most rebellious.”
(Lamentations 1:20)

That’s quite a confession, Jesus…

especially because of who’s making it.

This is no rapist, murderer, pillager, criminal.

The great prophet Jeremiah is speaking!

He’s the one who faithfully obeyed You throughout his life –

and suffered greatly for it.

He’s the one You appointed over nations and kingdoms –

to tear down, destroy, build and plant.

If he could be this humble and self-aware of his sins

who am I to be less?

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…to find some of your children walking in the truth…”
(2 John 1:4)

One of the great finds of all time, Jesus!

There are so many people who aren’t committed to the truth
still others who have no regard for the truth
and a distressing number who hate the truth.

But there’s another level, isn’t there?

It’s one thing to claim to love the truth
another thing entirely to walk in it –

which is who I’m determined to be.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Also, the men of Memphis and Tahpanhes have cracked your skull.”
(Jeremiah 2:16)

Total humiliation, Jesus.

It was not as though all of Egypt had attacked Israel.

All it took was a couple of cities
to bring Your chosen ones to their knees.

You broke Egypt to set Your people free

but because those You rescued
enslaved themselves to idols

the vanquished became conquerors.

Which is precisely what happens to me

when I choose anything or anyone over You.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…you have known him who is from the beginning.”
(1 John 2:14)

That would be You, Jesus.

Yes, You came to this earth as a baby
born of a virgin.

You grew, lived, loved, taught, worked miracles
died, rose from the dead, returned to heaven.

But before Abraham was born

You Are.

You created the heavens and the earth

every plant, animal and human – all of it.

Now You’ve given me the privilege of 1on1 time with You?

Mind-blowing.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Their land is full of idols…”
(Isaiah 2:8)

So is mine, Jesus.

Some obvious.
Others less so.

If an idol is anything that so captures my devotion

that when forced to choose

I prefer that person, place, thing or activity to You

then my city, state, nation and world
are overrun by idols.

Of course, that’s not the big question I need to answer:

Are there any idols in my life?

Please help me smash them

before You have to.

Pray this Lazaroo with Holy Spirit-led discernment:

“They will secretly introduce destructive heresies…”
(2 Peter 2:2)

That’s the worst kind, Jesus.

A heresy – teaching something contrary to Your Word –
is bad enough.

Some heresies are factual mistakes –

perpetrated by people who mean well
whose scholarship is lacking.

In some cases their error is troubling, but limited.

However, when someone deliberately sets out to deceive Your people

in order to destroy them?

Their Satan-inspired lies will be exposed and sent to hell

along with those who crafted them.
