Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“Anyone who…does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God…”
(2 John 1:9)

That explains a lot, Jesus!

I often wonder how in the world someone who

attended church
served in ministries
donated to causes
seemed to be a Christian brother or sister

could suddenly abandon everything they supposedly stood for.

Now I know:

They had religion
but they didn’t have You.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…Satan blocked our way.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:18)

That’s not supposed to happen, Jesus –

not to Your people
especially not to the likes of the Apostle Paul.

What’s going on, here?

You’re infinitely more powerful than Satan!
How in the world could he ever –

Oh. Right.

Satan can never block my way
unless You let him

because You didn’t want me to go there to begin with!

So when I can’t get where I want to go, I don’t need to worry.

You’ve got a better plan.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…the exiles…will possess the towns…”
(Obadiah 1:20)

Exiles are supposed to have zero rights, Jesus.

How in the world could they possess entire towns?

The answer is clear and startling:

The world didn’t do this for them!

You did.

This has Your Signature all over it.

You absolutely love to lift up
the broken, the fallen, the marginalized

those who are laughed at, disrespected
tossed to the curb

displaying in them Your love and mercy
for all the world to see.
