Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others…”
(2 Peter 2:5)

Those seven others, Jesus!

His wife.
His three sons.
His sons’ three wives.

A countless number of people drowned in the flood.

You saved only them.

They were the only ones
who repented at Noah’s preaching.

It’s not how many reject You, is it?

Those who’ll survive
are those who believe.

Pray this Lazaroo with lights out determination!

“…if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah…”
(2 Peter 2:5)

Now, why would You do that, Jesus?

Well, let’s see:

Noah was a righteous man.
He was blameless among the people of his time.
He walked with You.

Wow. No wonder he found favor in Your eyes!

I can either shake my head, admitting I’m no Noah…

or I can ask You to rise up within me in total transformation.

Pray this Lazaroo with antennae up:

“…if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people…”
(2 Peter 2:5)

I think I can see where this is going, Jesus.

You’re pointing out the punishment
You were forced to mete out years ago

to remind me that You’re the same
yesterday, today and forever.

Yes, You’re slow to anger.

But if I mistake Your loving patience for weakness

I will discover to my sorrow
that my sins will find me out.
