Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.”
(Daniel 2:42-43)

That’s what sin does to me, isn’t it, Jesus?

It’s the clay mixed with Your holy iron

that makes me fragile and brittle.

I long for all of me

to be filled with You!

Pray this Lazaroo in desperate need:

“…rid yourselves of…all deceit…”
(1 Peter 2:1)

I hate being deceived, Jesus!

I long to take people at their word.

It’s so much work to study their body language
and facial giveaways.

I fervently wish I lived in a “what-you-see-is-what-you-get” world.

But I don’t.

So that means I have to be a good evaluator, doesn’t it?

Except…some people are really good deceivers.

Looks like I need to tap into one of Your priceless treasures –

the supernatural gift of discernment.

Pray this Lazaroo in desperate, wholehearted adoration:

“…keep my commands in your heart, for they will…bring you prosperity.”
(Proverbs 3:1-2)

I do want to prosper, Jesus.

But not the way I used to think.

Prosperity – true prosperity – isn’t about money or fame.

As precious as these are
it isn’t even about health, friends, family.

The prosperity for which I long is whatever comes

with being in the absolute center of Your will.

Not one centimeter to the right.
Not one centimeter to the left.

That’s it.
