Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“Who knows? God may yet relent…”
(Jonah 3:9)

Even after the prophet Jonah delivered Your declaration of doom, Jesus

Ninevah’s king rallied his people with the hope of Your mercy.

For good reason:
Your mercy is legendary!

Yes, You punish willful, stubbornly repetitive sin.

But it breaks Your heart when You have to do it.
You give us chance after chance after chance to repent.

Even after You pronounce judgment

there’s always hope that You will relent
if we change our wicked ways.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Pray this Lazaroo freed of illusion:

“My lover is mine…”
(Song of Songs 2:16)

What a desperate declaration for Solomon’s wife to make, Jesus

in light of the fact that she was only one of 700 –
not to mention Solomon’s 300 concubines.

The less we human beings possess, Father

the more we pretend to have.

It’s easy for me to see that in this woman’s behavior

but where am I exhibiting the same thing in my own?

Nothing I have is mine.
All is Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo in complete awe:

“Have we not all one Father?”
(Malachi 2:10)

Yes, Jesus.

You proclaimed it through Moses 3,400 years ago:

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.”

You reaffirmed it more than 1400 years later to a crowd of stunned Jews:

“I and the Father Are One.”

The Holy Spirit Who indwells every believer

is You

which explains Your enigmatic declaration in the very beginning:

“Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness…”
