Pray this Lazaroo with mounting faith:

“When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble?”
(Amos 3:6)

Well, no, Jesus.

Not much anymore. At least, not in my city.

When a trumpet plays taps at a funeral

we’re usually sad…but seldom tremble.

These days, trumpets are happy instruments

bringing bright, brassy sounds to bands, orchestras, concerts.

But back in the day, the sound of a trumpet in the city

meant the enemy was attacking.

And one day Your trumpet

will melt hearts.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“…they will set it on fire and consume it.”
(Obadiah 1:18)

To have who I am and everything I stand for set on fire would be bad enough, Jesus

but to be consumed?

to have it all destroyed, leaving no trace?

Heartbreak.
Irredeemable tragedy.

That is the unavoidable, inescapable, certain future

for everyone who rejects You.

Not me, LORD!

I accept, trust, believe in, embrace and adore You!

which means my future is as bright

as Your amazing promises.
