Pray this Lazaroo in sobered recognition:

“In the last times there will be scoffers…”
(Jude 1:17)

As long as Satan has been doing his dirty work, Jesus

there have been scoffers –

ugly-spirited, detestable people who ridicule truth
who jeer, mock and treat with contempt
those who trust in Your Name.

But in the last times, their numbers will multiply.

They will be found everywhere –

in the streets, universities, entertainment, marketplace
in the highest offices of the land.

Just guessing…

but we might be in the last times.

Pray this Lazaroo with a fervent spirit

“The river gates are thrown open…”
(Nahum 2:6)

When Ninevah’s river gates were opened, Jesus

their city was flooded.

The very thing that had been a blessing to them

became their undoing.

Are there areas in my life that carry that risk, Father?

People, work, sports, foods, entertainment, behaviors –

given to me as blessings from You

that I might misuse, turning them into self-inflicted harm?

Absolutely.
Every one of them.

Help me enjoy Your blessings in the right way!

Be forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up.”
(2 Peter 2:3)

A made-up story can be enjoyable, Jesus –

as a fairy tale told to children
when a gifted novelist spins an intriguing adventure.

But when made-up stories are used to manipulate Your people and lead them astray

they’re not entertainment.
They’re a lie.

Satan is the father of lies.

His every intent is to steer people away from the truth

that always points to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in utter trust:

“They followed and worshiped various gods of the peoples around them.”
(Judges 2:12)

That’s the danger of hanging around the wrong people, isn’t it, Jesus?

That the gods they worship –

success, fame, money
sex, drugs, alcohol
sport, entertainment, popularity –

might entice me to follow them, rather than You.

Fool move?

Yup.

Their gods are no gods at all.

But the more time I spend in their world of smoke and mirrors

the deeper I sink into the quicksand of their lies.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“…their minds…are corrupted.”
(Titus 1:15)

I can’t imagine anything much worse than this, Jesus.

If my mind is corrupted
it affects everything I think, say and do

who I am.

Other than a miracle, there would be no escape

because a corrupted mind wouldn’t see the need.

How might I end up with a corrupt mind?

It’s by focusing on that which is corrupt, isn’t it?
Making corruption my entertainment.

Help me rip away, LORD!

while I still can.

Pray this Lazaroo in Godly desire:

“…that we may live peaceful…lives…”
(1 Timothy 2:2)

Some people seem to enjoy constant drama, Jesus.

If it’s not happening around them, they’re bored.

If things become too quiet for their taste, they’ll stir the pot themselves

goading others into a reaction, good or bad.

They don’t care, so long as everything’s hopping.

Turmoil…is their entertainment.

Please rescue me from these people, LORD!

Never permit me to become one of their number.

Make me…

a lover of peace.
