Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Joab…sent messengers after Abner…But David did not know it. Now when Abner returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into an inner chamber, as if to speak with him privately. And there, to avenge the blood of his brother Asahel, Joab stabbed him in the stomach, and he died.”
(2 Samuel 3:26-27)

Joab was a mighty warrior and general, Jesus

but he had an ugly, murderous streak.

Rid me of everything You find in me

that would bring dishonor to Your Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“The time is coming when I will cut short your strength and the strength of your priestly house, so that no one in it will reach old age, and you will see distress in my dwelling. Although good will be done to Israel, no one in your family line will ever reach old age.”
(1 Samuel 2:31-32)

Eli honored his sinning sons over You, Jesus.

Bad mistake.

You’ve commanded me to care for my family

but never if it dishonors You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“You who preach against stealing, do you steal? You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? As it is written: ‘God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.’”
(Romans 2:21-24)

O Holy Spirit!

Is there anything I’m doing – or not doing –

that causes unbelievers to think less of You?

If so, I beg You to show me!

In Your Holy Name, dear Jesus!

Amen!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Now since we are under obligation to the palace and it is not proper for us to see the king dishonored, we are sending this message to inform the king…”
(Ezra 4:14)

King Artaxerxes had to smell the stench from this heaping pile of garbage from a mile away, Jesus!

These two wicked, jealous yahoos were tattling
because Your chosen servant
was rattling their cages
by obeying You.

Great God!

Help me be a cage-rattler
instead of a garbage-pusher.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Oh, that I might have my request…that God would be willing to…cut off my life! Then I would still have this consolation—my joy in unrelenting pain—that I had not denied the words of the Holy One.”
(Job 6:8-10)

Job was afraid he’d dishonor You, Jesus

So he was saying:

“Just kill me now!”

But that wasn’t Your plan, was it?

You put Job through this to prove something to Satan
and teach Job a thing or two!

Message received and recorded.

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered assessment:

“…he has not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger. Without pity the Lord has swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob; in his wrath he has torn down the strongholds of Daughter Judah. He has brought her kingdom and its princes down to the ground in dishonor.”
(Lamentations 2:1-2)

There’s a line I don’t want to cross, isn’t there, Jesus?

You treat us so well, so lovingly
with such mercy and forgiveness

that we forget…

out there somewhere…

that line is there.

Pray this Lazaroo with full-on ardor:

“Do not refuse me.”
(1 Kings 2:20)

Depending on the person who says it, Jesus

this is either an easy request
or a hard one.

If it’s someone I like, respect or trust

I’m going to want to honor it.

If it’s someone I dislike and don’t trust

I’m going to be very suspicious.

Ultimately, however, it doesn’t come down to what I think of them.

The only thing that matters
is what You want me to do.
