Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority.”
(2 Peter 2:9-10)

There are times and circumstances, Jesus

when none of us likes being told what to do.

And of course, there are evil people in authority

whose sinful commands must be disobeyed.

But may I always be wholeheartedly responsive

to the commands of Your Word!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.”
(2 Timothy 2:16)

Show me, Jesus:

Exactly what is godless chatter?

Surely that doesn’t mean that every conversation I have with anyone
has to be about You or what’s in the Bible.

No. That’s not it.

But You don’t want me to engage in the kind of talk

that leads people away from You
that disrespects the principles found in Your Word.

To avoid that

I need to stay connected to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“The tempter came to him and said, ‘If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.’ Jesus answered, ‘It is written: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”’”
(Matthew 3:3-4)

That’s how to deal with Satan’s temptations, isn’t it, Jesus?

Quote Your Word to him
then don’t budge an inch.

Of course, I have to instantly be ready with Your Word

the moment temptation comes.

Maybe I’d better do a little more homework.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“You will be filled with shame instead of glory.”
(Habakkuk 2:16)

No!

That can’t happen, Jesus.
Not if I have anything to say about it.

Well…even more importantly:
Not if I have anything I can do about it.

And I can!

I can repent of my sins and stop committing them –
especially those I’ve been guilty of, again and again.

I can obey You – instantly – when I see in Your Word
what You want me to do.

Glory!

Not shame.

Pray this Lazaroo with attentive dedication:

“…praying in the Holy Spirit…”
(Jude 1:20)

There’s praying in myself, Jesus –

Telling You what I want
letting You know what I’m thinking.

That’s okay.
You understand.

But there’s another level, isn’t there?

It’s asking what You want

listening to Your reply in my heart
listening to Your reply as I study Your Word
listening to Your reply through life events
listening to Your reply through Your servants

all the while measuring everything I’m hearing

by the whole of Scripture.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Do not envy the violent or choose any of their ways. For the Lord detests the perverse but takes the upright into his confidence. The Lord’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous.”
(Proverbs 3:31-33)

From a distance, Jesus…

it’s easy to believe evil people
are getting away with it.

But You’ve given Your Word:

They’re not!

You alone are my hope for a great life on this earth

…and beyond.

(Titus 2:7)

There are a lot of ways to teach, Jesus

even if I don’t consider myself to be a teacher.

The most powerful is by my example, isn’t it?

May everyone who watches my life be able to see that

I live for You
I live according to Your Word
I long to be a true blessing to others
I do not turn from Your Word to the right or to the left.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.”
(Habakkuk 2:14)

That’s pretty good coverage, Jesus! 😉

And oh, how I long for that day!

So much of our world is going the other direction now –

knowing less and less about who You really Are…
turning to the gods of riches, popularity, technology.

While those who do claim Your Name

often ascribe to You false beliefs
because they don’t study Your Word.

(Proverbs 3:24-26)

Such is your promise to those who drink deeply of Your wisdom, Jesus

who seek to know and understand You and Your Word

with the full passion of their inmost being.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intent:

“My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.”
(Proverbs 3:21-23)

Those are amazing promises, Jesus!

But it’s not generic wisdom You’re talking about, is it?

It’s Your wisdom
Your understanding

Gained by saturating my life in Your Word

followed by wholehearted obedience.
