Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened.”
(Jonah 3:10)

That’s what I’ve had to do times beyond counting, Jesus:

turn from my evil ways!

I don’t know why I keep having to do that.

You would think I’d learn by now:

Leaving Your path never pays.

But I marvel at the fact that no matter how many times I have to repent

You are faithful to forgive!

Pray this Lazaroo in Holy Spirit-inspired hope:

“Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.”
(Jonah 3:8-9)

I don’t want to die, Jesus!

At least, not for that reason.

I mean, I know I’m going to die sometime –

unless You return for Your own before I do.

But may I never be so stubborn and pigheaded

that You have to take me out
to rid the earth of me.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger…”
(Jonah 3:8-9)

The king of Ninevah was right, Jesus!

That’s exactly what You did.

How many times have You done that very thing
down through the years?

When I humble myself, turn from my wicked ways

and cast myself on Your mercy

You look into my heart

see the sincerity there

and relent.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence.”
(Jonah 3:8)

Why do we find it so hard, Jesus

to give up the things that break Your heart?

You’re not trying to cheat us out of having a good time!

You’re protecting us from the thoughts, words and behaviors
that will destroy our lives.

Forgive me, LORD

for being so slow to give up
what will take me down.

Pay extremely close attention, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…take an iron pan, place it as an iron wall between you and the city and turn your face toward it…This will be a sign to the people of Israel. Then lie on your left side and put the sin of the people of Israel upon yourself.”
(Ezekiel 4:3-4)

How many times, Jesus

have You called on Your prophets, preachers and pastors
to be a sign to Your sinning people

to repent, change their hearts and their evil ways
before it’s too late?

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.”
(Ezekiel 3:18)

You couldn’t make it any clearer, Jesus.

I can’t quietly stand on the sidelines
thinking it doesn’t concern me
and watch it happen.

I’ve got to speak up!

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They will occupy the fields of Ephraim…”
(Obadiah 1:19)

Ephraim was Joseph’s second son, Jesus.

When Jacob blessed his two grandsons
he put Ephraim ahead of his older brother Manasseh.

His descendants became one of Your 12 tribes of Israel.

But in the Promised Land
they failed to dislodge those worshipping idols
and became idol-worshippers themselves.

Who are those I need to dislodge from my life, Father?

before I follow their evil ways
and lose my fields to others?
