Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“All Israel…were taken captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness.”
(1 Chronicles 9:1)

That’s where unfaithfulness leads, isn’t it, Jesus?

Captivity.

Ironic. The reason anyone disobeys You

is to get out from under Your commands
opting for freedom to go their own way

not realizing that Your laws
are safeguards.

Once “free” of the umbrella of protection Your statutes afford

they become sitting ducks
for everything Satan wants to do to them

hastening the day
when they’ll be manacled
staring hopelessly through bars.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“Until now…”
(Haggai 2:19)

The “until now” of the past tries to hold us captive, Jesus

But You came to change that.

In You –

what I used to be, used to do, the way I used to think –

are irrelevant.

My future is as bright as Your promises –

which are dazzlingly brilliant!

I’m no longer required to drive forward while looking in my rearview mirror.

In You, I can look ahead

and see unfolding before my eyes

new possibilities!
