Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“…free those…held in slavery…”
(Hebrews 2:15)

That’s what You’re all about, isn’t it, Jesus?

You love to free slaves.

Yes! – people who are enslaved because of the color of their skin!
But there are other kinds of slavery, too:

financial slavery to crushing debt
the stronger over the weaker
governmental abuse
sex slavery.

But because of its eternal consequences

the worst slavery of all is slavery to sin

Thank God!

Freedom from that slavery
is Your absolute specialty.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…he…takes captive all the peoples.”
(Habakkuk 2:5)

I have no interest in being an evil person’s captive, Jesus.

I detest the very thought.
Freedom is precious to me.

Not freedom from You, though!

Rather, freedom to become everything You’ve created me to be.
Every other pursuit is jail, captivity, bondage.

Of course, that’s not how the tempter presents it.

The bars of his cage are cleverly disguised
the rusty padlock hidden from sight
his key to open it

nonexistent.
