Category Archives: Idol

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Their land is full of idols…”
(Isaiah 2:8)

So is mine, Jesus.

Some obvious.
Others less so.

If an idol is anything that so captures my devotion

that when forced to choose

I prefer that person, place, thing or activity to You

then my city, state, nation and world
are overrun by idols.

Of course, that’s not the big question I need to answer:

Are there any idols in my life?

Please help me smash them

before You have to.

Open your eyes, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.”
(Hosea 3:1)

Satan knows these false gods he parades in front of people

are no gods at all, Jesus.

So he always finds a way to sweeten his lies, to make them easier to swallow –

sometimes with sacred raisin cakes
at other times with drugs, drunkenness, adultery.

But there’s a catch.

As with all poisons
there’s a lethal aftertaste.

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace…”
(Jonah 2:8)

You are so good to me, Jesus!

You’re beyond good to every person
who draws a breath on this planet.

You don’t treat us as our sins deserve!

Over and over and over again
You forgive us times beyond counting.

You do, that is…

if we look to You as our God.

But those who trust some god instead of You

turn their backs
on their only hope.
