Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast hope:

“I came to you in weakness…”
(1 Corinthians 2:3)

That’s not how Paul wanted to show up, Jesus.

I don’t want to meet a new group of people that way, either.

But that’s the hand Paul was dealt

so he soldiered on, putting all his trust in You.

There have been times when You’ve put me in that same position, Father

perhaps for the same reason:

to teach me to soldier on
putting all my trust in You.

Pray this Lazaroo in breakthrough insight:

“No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs…”
(2 Timothy 2:4)

I’m Your soldier, Jesus, at Your command.

Am I getting involved in anything that’s none of my business?

If so, please show me!

I don’t want to mess it up.

Nor do I want to be distracted
from the awesome mission You’ve assigned to me.

Besides…

people tend to meddle in the affairs of others
when they don’t know what to do with their own.

Strap on your armor as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”
(2 Timothy 2:3)

So much for pacifism, huh, Jesus?

You haven’t called me to join a country club.
You’ve called me to serve in Your army.

This life is a battle.

If I want to win, I can’t sit back and watch.
I’ve got to fight.

Confession?

Sometimes I get battle-weary.
I want to call “Time out!”

But that’s not gonna happen, is it?

The moment I let down my guard
I lose.
