Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“These were the descendants of Ehud, who were heads of families of those living in Geba and were deported to Manahath…”
(1 Chronicles 8:6)

The old rule of warfare, Jesus –

decapitate the enemy’s leaders
replace them with Your own leaders
to maintain control over the people.

But that never works against Your people

even when we’re invaded
even when it looks as though we’re completely conquered.

No matter who they take away

we always have our Powerful Leader:

You.

Pray this Lazaroo with absolute sincerity:

“Rend your heart and not your garments.”
(Joel 2:13)

That had become the custom, hadn’t it, Jesus –

tearing their clothes upon hearing of something disastrous.

When that custom first began, it was no doubt powerful

because it came straight from the heart.

But over the years, people began doing it because it was expected

even when it didn’t truly touch their hearts.

O God! I know what You want!

Not merely my outward behavior.

In repentance…

You want my heart.
