Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“The war between the house of Saul and the house of David lasted a long time. David grew stronger and stronger, while the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker. During the war between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner had been strengthening his own position in the house of Saul.”
(2 Samuel 3:1,6)

Thank You for this reminder, Jesus!

Even while I’m enjoying Your favor
the enemy of my soul is plotting his next attack.

Keep me ever vigilant!

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed resolve:

“Warn them before God against quarreling about words…”
(2 Timothy 2:14)

Why do we do that, Jesus?

Why do we fight and argue and quarrel at all?

Afterwards, it doesn’t make any of us feel good.

It has the potential to damage relationships.

Besides, when I quarrel with another person about some key word in the Bible

all I do is give the enemy of my soul

something else to dissuade the lost

from putting their trust in You.

Be empowered! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The LORD said to Satan, ‘The LORD rebuke you, Satan! The LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you!’”
(Zechariah 3:2)

Satan was accusing Joshua, Jesus.

Then Your angel, speaking in Your behalf,
showed me and everyone who reads these words

how to respond to Satan’s accusations.

I don’t have the clout to rebuke Satan and shut his mouth.

But You do.

It is by Your Name and in Your power
that I take my stand against the enemy of my soul!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“The woman said, ‘The serpent deceived me, and I ate.’”
(Genesis 3:13)

Who among us cannot identify with those words, Jesus?

Not one.

Every human being on earth old enough to know right from wrong

knows what it is to be deceived by Satan
and to give in to temptation.

I’d do well to remember that my soul has an enemy and a name:

Satan!

So that in the strength of Your superior Name

I can tell him:

“NO!”

Be filled with confidence, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“These are the words of him who has the sharp, double-edged sword.”
(Revelation 2:12)

The members of Your church in Pergamum –

now the city of Bergama, Turkey –

had to hear these words with great joy, Jesus!

Back then, it was a powerful, rich city in Mysia, Greece –

where Satan had his throne.

You were reminding these stalwart followers of Yours

of the same thing You’re telling me:

I will protect you!

Great God!

Wield Your double-edged sword
against the enemy of my soul.

Pray this Lazaroo in staunch confidence:

“…the same things those churches suffered…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:14)

Same old devil, Jesus

same beautiful Church.

Of course, when churches leave the foundation of Your Word

Satan is happy, leaves them alone –
except when he attends

…’cause he’s quite comfortable there.

But the more a church obeys You

the more the enemy of our souls attacks
because he’s scared to death.

He’s fully aware of Your promise –

that the gates of hell will not prevail against such a church.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“Whenever Israel went out to fight…”
(Judges 2:15)

It’s tempting to think this is merely a history lesson, Jesus.

I’d like to think:

“I’m so glad I don’t have to go out to fight!”

But that would be self-deception.

The truth is, I’m in the fight of my life.

The moment I put all my trust in You as my Savior

I picked up in Satan
the fiercest, most powerful enemy imaginable

who can’t hold a candle to You.
