Take warning as you pray this Lazaroo:

“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.”
(2 John 1:10-11)

I’m no innocent bystander, am I, Jesus?

Even though  I claim to belong to You

while welcoming and befriending
buddying up and hanging out

with people who deny Your Name
with those who reject Your Word

I’m in the same boat with them

which is going to sink.

Be encouraged! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames.”
(1 Corinthians 3:14-15)

You are stunningly good to Your chosen people, Jesus!

Even if we blow it again and again
making bad choice after bad choice after bad choice

if with all our hearts we claim You

You claim us.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“‘On that day,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘I will take you, my servant Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will make you like my signet ring’…”
(Haggai 2:23)

Why were You so pleased with this governor of Judah, Jesus?

It was because He had the courage to obey You!

He delivered Your warning to Your people
even though it was the last thing they wanted to hear.

He valued pleasing You
ahead of pleasing them.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…you see something dreadful and are afraid. Have I ever said, ‘Give something on my behalf, pay a ransom for me from your wealth, deliver me from the hand of the enemy, rescue me from the clutches of the ruthless’? Teach me, and I will be quiet; show me where I have been wrong.’”
(Job 6:21-24)

Job had no clue that You were proving his greatness to Satan, Jesus.

Help me trust You, LORD!

even when to me
what’s happening makes no sense.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I want you to know how hard I am contending for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me personally.”
(Colossians 2:1)

Paul’s talking to me, Jesus

‘cause I’ve not met him personally. 😉

But I like this about him:

He wanted me to know how hard he was contending for me
even though he didn’t know me personally.

He’s setting a good example, isn’t he?

One with Your help
I fully intend to follow.
