Pray this Lazaroo in stunned realization:

“…they have rebelled against you.”
(Psalms 5:10)

Some people rebel against You defiantly and openly, Jesus.

Others do so while outwardly professing their faith in You.

If all sin is a form of rebellion then I shamefully confess:

I’ve rebelled against You.

No, I’ve not rejected You as my Savior

but every time I do what I know I shouldn’t
I’ve rebelled against You as my LORD.

How dare I – Your soldier in Heaven’s army –

disobey my Commanding Officer?

Pray this Lazaroo in lesson-learning horror:

“Why then has he become plunder?”
(Jeremiah 2:14)

Before I try to answer that question, Jesus

I need to ponder what it is to be plunder.

It’s what raiders get when they destroy a city

looting whatever’s left after killing all its inhabitants
having burned it to the ground.

I don’t want to be my enemies’ stolen goods, Father!

To avoid that, it’s essential that I obey You.

I long to remain Your child, Your treasured possession

now…and forever.

Take warning as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…every face turns pale.”
(Joel 2:6)

Some faces turn pale over the smallest thing, Jesus.

But when every face turns pale
we’re talking about something truly terrifying.

You are so kind, so loving – even longsuffering.

It takes repeated, calloused, uncaring disobedience
to force You into doling out this kind of punishment
on the people You love with all Your heart.

But that’s what love does

when nothing else works

when the one You deeply cherish

no longer pays attention.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“…places under the authority of the governor…”
(Nehemiah 3:7)

You tell me to respect those in authority, Jesus

and I try.

Sometimes it’s hard, when I know their lives don’t measure up to the offices they hold.

You tell me to obey them anyway.

Well…unless what they tell me to do is contrary to Your Word.

Then – making certain that I understand what You desire
knowing the price I may have to pay –

I will joyfully, wholeheartedly, follow You.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was…desirable for gaining wisdom…”
(Genesis 3:6)

Most of us want to know more than we do, Jesus

at least about some things.

But that’s not what Satan was marketing to Eve.

He claimed that all she had to do was disobey God
to become wiser.

And she did.

Shortly after she and her husband were expelled from the garden
she learned that she’d have been wiser

to disobey Satan.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…what ought not to be done.”
(Romans 1:28)

I don’t like to think about this, Jesus.

It reminds me of all the times
I’ve been guilty of this very thing.

It’s bad enough when I make an innocent mistake
when I’m guilty of an unintended error in judgment

far worse when I know the good I ought to do
and don’t do it

when I know the evil I dare not do
and do it anyway.

Heal me, Father!
