Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Jerusalem staggers, Judah is falling; their words and deeds are against the Lord, defying his glorious presence. The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.”
(Isaiah 3:8-9)

This is terrifying, Jesus.

You’ve just described what is happening now
before my very eyes.

Sins that people used to commit in shame and darkness
they now proudly display in broad daylight
urging others to join them.

No!

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The Lord has rejected his altar and abandoned his sanctuary. He has given the walls of her palaces into the hands of the enemy; they have raised a shout in the house of the Lord as on the day of an appointed festival. The Lord determined to tear down the wall around Daughter Zion.”
(Lamentations 2:7-8)

You discipline Your own, Jesus!

If we deliberately defy You
we can expect You to destroy
the blessings You’ve bestowed on us.

May I never do such an ugly, foolish thing, LORD!

Never. Never. Never.

Pray this Lazaroo in Holy Fear:

“…you said, ‘I will not serve you!’”
(Jeremiah 2:20)

What a foolhardy, terrifying declaration, Jesus.
Most of us aren’t that blatant with our defiance.

We give you lip service that makes us sound righteous
until our disobedient actions reveal our words to be lies.

That’s not my intent, LORD!

I know I’ve overpromised and underperformed.
But every time I promise You something I mean it.

Please help me overcome my weakness!
I so long to obey You.
Every time.
