“What can I do with you, Ephraim? What can I do with you, Judah? Your love is like the morning mist, like the early dew that disappears. Therefore I cut you in pieces with my prophets, I killed you with the words of my mouth—then my judgments go forth like the sun.”
(Hosea 6:4-5)

I’ve been loved with that same disappearing love Jesus.

It’s awful.

Love never fails.
Their love was a lie from the beginning.

No wonder You respond to its duplicity

with warning words
followed by blazing judgment.

Pray this Lazaroo with your eyes fixed on Jesus:

“Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil…”
(3 John 1:11)

At first glance, Jesus

that seems like a no-brainer
like something You wouldn’t have to say.

Sadly, there’s a reason You have to say it –

a very sad, disgraceful, inexcusably awful reason:

We keep imitating what’s evil.
Monkey see…monkey do.

What are we thinking?

Maybe we’re thinking they got away with it…

so can I.

But they’re not going to get away with it!

Nor will I.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“If someone brings a lamb as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect. They are to lay their hand on its head and slaughter it for a sin offering at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered.”
(Leviticus 4:32-33)

What an awful and powerful reminder

of the seriousness of my sin, Jesus!

That an innocent little lamb had to die because of what I did!

Especially because I don’t have to sin.

Great God Almighty!

Help me stop it!
