Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“…the women are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers…”
(1 Timothy 3:11)

Amen, Jesus.

If there’s one thing that can ruin the harmony in Your Church
it’s a group of women who are malicious talkers.

Of course, there’s a second thing that can ruin the harmony in Your Church:

a group of men who are malicious talkers.

Even one man.
Even one woman.

That’s all it takes to create incalculable harm.

May I never be guilty of this disruptive sin!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“When all the work Solomon had done for the temple of the Lord was finished, he brought in the things his father David had dedicated—the silver and gold and all the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of God’s temple.”
(2 Chronicles 5:1)

Father and son working together, Jesus

to honor You.

Although that’s beautiful

it doesn’t always happen.

But You’re my Father

and I’m Your child.

What do you say let’s work together
to bring glory to Your holy Name!

Pray this Lazaroo in utter gratitude:

“…Joab and Abishai pursued Abner, and as the sun was setting, they came to the hill of Ammah…Then the men of Benjamin rallied behind Abner. They formed themselves into a group and took their stand…”
(2 Samuel 2:24-25)

Sometimes it takes getting chased, picked on, attacked Jesus

before a person can get a little help.

At other times the help disappears

when people come after me.

O thank God!

that whether or not I have helpers

I always have You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel…”
(Galatians 2:14)

That’s when I’m forced to speak up, isn’t it, Jesus?

In a company, nation, church, community, project, group of friends

the first steps may seem right

but if over time there’s a blatant departure –

or a subtle one –

I can’t remain mute.

I have to speak up:

wisely, humbly, respectfully…
but firmly.

If I’m ignored, I have to keep trying

or get out.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group.”
(Galatians 2:12)

There’s always some group, isn’t there, Jesus?

In fact, they run in groups.

They’re the in-group – the ones who seem to be in power.

They’re the ones who think they’re better than others
who get most of us to believe it.

But that’s a lie!

They’re not better.

The reason they’re in a group

is because they don’t have the courage to stand alone

with You.
