Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Let their intrigues be their downfall.”
(Psalms 5:10)

So fitting, Jesus!

to witness people who plot against others –

especially when it’s against those who trusted them –

finally be taken down in their own trap!

But somehow, when it happens…

I can’t rejoice.

I’m no better than they.

I deserve the same punishment.

My sins may not be identical to theirs

but they are every bit as heinous.

Forgive them, LORD!

as You have so completely, graciously, undeservedly

forgiven me.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Declare them guilty, O God!”
(Psalms 5:10)

David didn’t pray this prayer over people who’ve merely slipped, Jesus.

When I run into one of those, I beg You to forgive them,
pick them up, teach them, give them another chance.

After all…that’s what You keep doing for me.

But David has run into a few pathological liars

whose souls are wicked to the core.

He knows the heartbreak, ugliness and devastation that bunch can cause

…and so do You.
