Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Hear this, you leaders of Jacob, you rulers of Israel, who despise justice and distort all that is right; who build Zion with bloodshed, and Jerusalem with wickedness.”
(Micah 3:9-10)

It’s the leaders You hold most accountable, isn’t it, Jesus?

You expect them to set the standard for their followers

to love justice and do what’s right
But with honesty, integrity and hard work –

not by crushing the innocent.

Pray this Lazaroo…with transparency:

“I wrote you out of great distress…”
(2 Corinthians 2:4)

So much for the “super Christians” who say that no matter what happens

I should never become upset, Jesus.

As though my lack of concern is an indication of faith

and my emotional upset means I don’t trust You.

Not true!

If there ever was a “super Christian,” Paul was it
and he had no problem admitting that he was in “great distress.”

Perhaps “super Christianity”

begins with honesty.

Be inspired to greatness as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…nothing false was found on his lips.”
(Malachi 2:6)

High praise, Jesus.

In fact, behavior supposedly that amazing is almost always overstated
unless – as in this case – the declaration comes from You.

Which means Levi was quite a guy.

It’s tough to pull off flawless honesty in public

nearly impossible to maintain it in private.

But You saw him 24/7

at his worst, at his best
and watched him pass every test.

Make me another Levi, LORD!

Starting now.
