Pray this Lazaroo in broken repentance:

“‘If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him and marries another man, should he return to her again? Would not the land be completely defiled? But you have lived as a prostitute with many lovers—would you now return to me?’ declares the Lord.”
(Jeremiah 3:1)

Once again, You’re teaching on two levels, Jesus –

on marriage
on my relationship with You.

But the answer to Your question is yes!

If I have strayed

I will return to You forever – with all my heart!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“‘Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards, destroying them with blight and mildew. Locusts devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you have not returned to me,’ declares the Lord.”
(Amos 4:9)

When our hearts are stubborn and unrepentant, Jesus

this is what it comes to.

Because Your loving kindness doesn’t compel us

all that’s left is pain.

O God!

May I respond to Your love
Your generosity to me
Your goodness, mercy and forgiveness!

May I never bring upon myself

Your wrath.

Pray this Lazaroo with perceptive faith:

 

“’I gave you empty stomachs in every city and lack of bread in every town, yet you have not returned to me,’ declares the Lord. ‘I also withheld rain from you when the harvest was still three months away.’”
(Amos 4:6-7)

I really need to pay attention, don’t I, Jesus?

When bad things happen to me
I need to ask, “Why?”

Not because I think I don’t deserve it

but because I know for a fact I do.

Be comforted – and forewarned – as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The Sovereign Lord has sworn by his holiness: ‘The time will surely come when you will be taken away with hooks, the last of you with fishhooks. You will each go straight out through breaches in the wall, and you will be cast out toward Harmon,’ declares the Lord.”
(Amos 4:2-3)

People sin and nothing happens, Jesus.

They think they got away with it

that You didn’t notice.

They think they can keep sinning without consequences.

They’re wrong.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“‘Where then are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them come if they can save you when you are in trouble! For you, Judah, have as many gods as you have towns. Why do you bring charges against me? You have all rebelled against me,’ declares the Lord.”
(Jeremiah 2:28-29)

We play with our idols until they get us in trouble, Jesus…

then we cry out to You for help

and wonder why You don’t respond to us.

Pray this Lazaroo with an open, generous heart!

“‘I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses adorned with ivory will be destroyed and the mansions will be demolished, declares the Lord. Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria, you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy and say to your husbands, ‘Bring us some drinks!’”
(Amos 3:15-4:1)

You’re hardest on those to whom You’ve given much, Jesus

when they repay You with oh, so little!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“‘Hear this and testify against the descendants of Jacob,’ declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.”
(Amos 3:13)

Some things are hard to hear, Jesus

so we plug our ears
making noises with our mouths
engaging in frenetic activity

trying to keep Your warnings of doom
from penetrating all the way to our hearts
forcing us to repent.

But it’s the hardest messages from You

that I most need to hear, isn’t it?

Forgive me, LORD!
I’m listening.

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“‘Even now,’ declares the Lord, ‘return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.’”
(Joel 2:12)

You’re saying it’s not too late, Jesus!

Not as long as I have breath in my lungs
and a heart open to You.

But I’ve got to I understand:

You’re not saying, “It’s never too late.”

Because for those who repeatedly reject You
allowing their hearts to become hard over the years?

The day of no return will come.
