Pray this Lazaroo in compassionate urgency:

“…these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.”
(2 Peter 2:12-13)

My country’s disobedience has reached this very level, Jesus.

The God-defiant are gathering in large numbers
carousing in broad daylight.

Your judgment is on its way.

Please help me rescue as many as possible
before it’s too late.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep, wholehearted repentance:

“Look, Lord, and consider: Whom have you ever treated like this? Should women eat their offspring, the children they have cared for? Should priest and prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?…You have slain them in the day of your anger; you have slaughtered them without pity.”
(Lamentations 2:20-21)

There’s a price for rejecting You, Jesus

severe penalties await those
who knowingly, deliberately, callously
flaunt their disobedience.

These serve as my examples.

I want no part of it!

Awake! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“In that day seven women will take hold of one man and say, ‘We will eat our own food and provide our own clothes; only let us be called by your name. Take away our disgrace!’”
(Isaiah 4:1)

Sin doesn’t end in triumph, Jesus

but in humiliation.

Satan packs all his pleasures into the first moments of my disobedience

then leaves me hurting, disgraced, bankrupt.

How many times do I have to see this outcome of temptation

before I reject it?

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise, let us go against her for battle…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

You’re stirring up the nations against us, Jesus?

No. Not us.
Against our pride-filled, sinning brothers.

I’m sorry for them…

but thankful that we’re not the ones under Your wrath.

Except…this is a warning, isn’t it?

If you’re taking our brothers to the woodshed
we’ll be next –

if we follow their example of disobedience.

Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then the Lord was jealous for his land…”
(Joel 2:18)

“Then,” Jesus?

When?

What turns Your heart toward us, though we have sinned

though we deserve nothing but wrath?

What makes You jealous for this land we have so defiled by our disobedience?

It’s when we cry out to You in repentance, isn’t it –

begging for Your mercy –
which by very definition we don’t deserve.

It’s when we call on You to honor Your great Name we have so besmirched.

Pray this Lazaroo with inexpressible gratitude:

“There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.”
(Hebrews 4:9-11)

I rest, Jesus –

from my futile work of attempting to earn my salvation.

I can’t – no matter how hard I try.

I confess that my faith in You –

Your death, burial and resurrection –

is my only hope for eternal life!

Pray this Lazaroo in solemn self-appraisal:

“My eyes fail from weeping, I am in torment within; my heart is poured out on the ground because my people are destroyed…”
(Lamentations 2:11)

I could say the same about the people in my country, Jesus!

They’re racing down a steep slope of disobedience
heading straight for a cliff that will plunge them to their death.

But do my eyes fail from weeping
Am I in torment within?
Is my heart poured out on the ground?

We desperately need revival

but how much do I really care?

Pray this Lazaroo with solemn determination:

“…since those who formerly had the good news proclaimed to them did not go in because of their disobedience…God again set a certain day, calling it ‘Today.’ This he did when a long time later he spoke through David… ‘Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.’”
(Hebrews 4:6-7)

A hard heart can cost me everything, Jesus!

It can ruin the relationships I desire with my friends and family

and cripple my relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“…with nothing to fear…The lion killed enough for his cubs and strangled the prey for his mate, filling his lairs with the kill and his dens with the prey.”
(Nahum 2:11-12)

This is imagery, Jesus.

You’re not really talking about lions.

You’re rebuking a sinful nation
who once acted like the king of beasts

but who now, because of their disobedience
have lost their fangs.

Do I live in such a country, Father?

Among a people once righteous and strong
who have forsaken You?

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“The sun will set for the prophets, and the day will go dark for them. The seers will be ashamed and the diviners disgraced. They will all cover their faces because there is no answer from God.”
(Micah 3:6-7)

That’s the price of disobedience, isn’t it, Jesus?

The miracles disappear.
The true prophets come up empty.

All that’s left are false prophets
who prophesy the delusions of their own minds.

O LORD!

Send a revival!
Send a revival!
Send a revival!
