Passionately call on God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Hear us, our God, for we are despised. Turn their insults back on their own heads. Give them over as plunder in a land of captivity. Do not cover up their guilt or blot out their sins from your sight, for they have thrown insults in the face of the builders.”
(Nehemiah 4:4-5)

You hear the prayer of Your desperate followers who are doing Your will, Jesus!

I qualify as desperate.

Now I just need to make sure I’m following You

and doing exactly what You’ve called me to do.

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.
