Take a deep breath, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…all will be condemned who have not believed the truth…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:12)

Pretty plain, Jesus.

Thanks for laying it out there

Those who refuse to believe the truth are not merely disciplined, punished.

You don’t simply give them a stern talking-to
put them in time out.

They’re condemned.

Last time I checked
that means hell.

Not just for a visit.
Forever.

Makes me develop a whole new appreciation

for the truth…the whole truth…
and nothing but the truth.

Pray this Lazaroo with fiery determination:

“…and tell him…”
(John 1:41)

That’s what I’ve got to do, Jesus –

tell somebody about You.

The news is too good to keep to myself!

the consequence too great for those who don’t understand

or hear.

How dare I worship with Your saints, rejoicing in Your salvation

without thought for those who’ve never heard Your Name?

O God!

Help me tell all those around me about Your salvation
and proclaim to the four corners of the earth:

Jesus saves!

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“God…was also at work in my ministry as an apostle to the Gentiles.”
(Galatians 2:8)

You chose the Jews, Jesus.

There’s no argument about that.
They’re Yours.

But Hallelujah! You didn’t stop there!

You chose the rest of us, too –
everyone who calls on Your Name.

The Jews who reject You will miss heaven

as will all the Gentiles – the non-Jews –
who fail to put their hope in You.

But I’ll join every believing Jew and Gentile

in heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“Escape…”
(Zechariah 2:7)

Sounds, good, Jesus.

There are some things I’m determined to escape:

error
ignorance
meaningless pain
disgrace
lack of focus
foolishness – mine and others’
inefficiency
wasted time
irrelevance
disobedience
unforgiveness
weakness
every attack of Satan

hell

Pray this Lazaroo with bulldog faith:

“…and they will say, ‘You are my God.’”
(Hosea 2:23)

Is there any greater joy, Jesus?

than to share You with a friend, neighbor,
family member, coworker, stranger

and discover You’ve used me to draw them to Yourself?

to have them unashamedly declare in grateful worship:

“You are my God!”?

No matter how pleasurable, meaningful or important

nothing holds greater weight
none has deeper significance

because eternal life in heaven
eternal suffering in hell

were hanging in the balance.

Pray this Lazaroo with Spirit-led vision:

“…my people have exchanged their Glory for worthless idols.”
(Jeremiah 2:11)

You are my Glory, Jesus.

Anything good in me
comes from You.

How could I ever exchange You

for that which brings

shame
disgrace
loss
failure
hatred
fear
anger
disappointment
emptiness
darkness
despair

hell?

The problem, of course, is that Satan doesn’t mention those things
when he tempts me to sell my priceless birthright

for that which glitters
but is not gold.

Open my eyes, LORD!

Open my eyes.

 Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart: 

“…they will be completely destroyed.”
(Nahum 1:15)

That’s the future of the wicked, Jesus:

eternal destruction in the lake of fire
with the devil and his angels.

But only You know who they are.

Though I sometimes think I can tell
I’m not that smart.

Some of those who look like lost causes today

tomorrow could become Your heroes.

And some who at this time appear to be saints

are in truth sly hypocrites
under the control of Satan.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow…”
(Philippians 1:26)

I long to have that effect on others, Jesus!

to be the bearer of good news
to be used by You to draw others close to You.

Ironically, that sometimes requires me to start with the bad news

that they – like I – are sinners who need to repent
that refusal to repent and believe in Your

death
burial
resurrection

will land them eternally in hell.
