Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Solomon made an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt and married his daughter. He brought her to the City of David until he finished building his palace and the temple of the Lord, and the wall around Jerusalem. The people, however, were still sacrificing at the high places…”
(1 Kings 3:1-2)

And so it starts to unravel, Jesus…

Solomon enters a forbidden marriage
the people worshiping where they shouldn’t.

The more disobedience I incorporate in my life

the more swiftly my downfall arrives.

Be duly warned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“If anyone sins and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, even though they do not know it, they are guilty and will be held responsible. They are to bring to the priest as a guilt offering a ram from the flock, one without defect and of the proper value…and they will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 5:17-18)

This answers one of my questions, Jesus:

Ignorance of Your Law is no excuse.

If I refuse to study Your Word to learn Your commands

I will pay the consequences.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.”
(1 Timothy 2:14)

Eve’s sin was bad, Jesus

but Adam’s was worse.

Adam wasn’t deceived. He knew better and ate the forbidden fruit anyway.

His wife handed him the fruit
so he accepted it and ate it.

Pleasing his wife was more important to him than pleasing You

making her humankind’s first idol.

May I never put anyone or anything ahead of You!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I came to the exiles who lived at Tel Aviv near the Kebar River. And there, where they were living, I sat among them for seven days—overwhelmed.”
(Ezekiel 3:15)

That’s how bad Ezekiel’s countrymen had become, Jesus.

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing!

Your people doing detestable things – things forbidden in Your Law.
Most of all – unthinkably! – Your people worshiping other gods.

Once they forsook you
the vile behavior soon followed.

O Jesus!

Keep me close to You!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The foundation Solomon laid for building the temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide…”
(2 Chronicles 3:3)

There’s never been another temple like it, Jesus –

but that makes me think:

What kind of foundation am I building?

Solomon did a great job laying the foundation for Your physical temple

but his spiritual foundation didn’t hold.

It all started when he disobeyed you in seemingly small ways

first this…then that.

But there’s nothing small about disobedience.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…knowing good and evil.”
(Genesis 3:5)

It’s one thing to know what’s good and what’s evil, Jesus

quite another to do one
and refuse the other.

Sure, there are some sins I might accidentally commit

some good deeds I inadvertently overlook.

But how can I claim ignorance as my excuse for any of those

when I refuse to obey even one of Your clear commands

or deliberately engage in an activity

that I know full well You have expressly forbidden?
