Take stock, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They declared a fast, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth.”
(Jonah 3:5)

The people of the great city of Ninevah did this, Jesus

in response to Your warning through the prophet Jonah.

Through him, You told them their city would be overturned in 40 days.

Just wondering…

If You sent a prophet with a similar warning to my city

would anyone fast?
would anyone remove their fine clothing

and start wearing sackcloth?

Pray this Lazaroo with a fervent spirit:

“They declared a fast…”
(Jonah 3:5)

These days, Jesus

people seldom declare a fast
unless their serious.

We go without food only when we want something really badly

or when we’ve had the living tar scared out of us.

That was pretty much what happened to the Ninevites

after Jonah showed up and warned them
that You were going to destroy their city in 40 days.

May I always remember:

Because they got serious and got serious fast

You relented.
