Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“The woman said, ‘The serpent deceived me, and I ate.’”
(Genesis 3:13)

Who among us cannot identify with those words, Jesus?

Not one.

Every human being on earth old enough to know right from wrong

knows what it is to be deceived by Satan
and to give in to temptation.

I’d do well to remember that my soul has an enemy and a name:

Satan!

So that in the strength of Your superior Name

I can tell him:

“NO!”

Pray this Lazaroo…thoughtfully:

“Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles.”
(Galatians 2:12)

If the Apostle Peter can be intimidated by so-called “important” people, Jesus

so can I.

The pressure he felt was so great that he actually sinned against the precious people to whom he had been ministering!

Please, LORD.

Help me keep my eyes so firmly fixed on You
that I will never allow anyone – high or low –

to back me off Your Word.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Woe to him who piles up stolen goods…!”
(Habakkuk 2:6)

That’s another level, isn’t it, Jesus?

To steal one or two things now and then is bad enough.

But to pile up high what’s been stolen

says something about the thief’s heart.

It’s the difference between sometimes losing my battle against temptation

and embracing temptation as a way of life.

Keep me in the good fight, Father!

May what Satan dangles in front of me
never become my master.
