Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies…”
(Psalms 5:8)

I don’t know, Jesus –

Is it easier to live a righteous life while my enemies are attacking
or when it appears they’re giving me a break?

While under attack

I might lean hard on You…
or get discouraged and sin.

When free from attack

I might worship You in gratitude…
or grow complacent and stray.

Please, LORD!

In trouble or not
lead me all the time.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“He assigns our fields to traitors.”
(Micah 2:4)

If you took from me what I had worked so hard for, Jesus

and gave it to my enemies?

I’d be crushed.

But if You gave my most treasured possessions to people I thought were my friends

only to discover they were

deceiving
lying
conniving traitors?

I’d be stunned speechless.

Something tells me I never want to cross You

never want to offend You
never want to get on Your wrong side.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled transparency:

“My people have committed two sins…”
(Jeremiah 2:13)

If only two sins

were all I’ve committed. Jesus

Mine are innumerable.

I can’t count them
and I’m the one who committed them.

If I really wanted a closer count

I’m sure my enemies would help me out.

One reason I can’t count all of them –

other than my bad memory –

is that I’m really good at justifying them

when in reality there is never any excuse
for sinning against You.

 Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul: 

“Meanwhile, Abner…had taken…”
(2 Samuel 2:8)

There’s always a “meanwhile,” isn’t there, Jesus?

No matter how many victories You give me

somebody isn’t pleased
was fervently hoping I’d lose

while Satan is always there
plotting to take back the ground I won.

It’s good to celebrate every victory, praising Your great Name

but I never want to take it to the point where I brag and gloat

because there’s always a “meanwhile”
lurking just around the corner.
