Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“They provoked the LORD to anger because they forsook him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.”
(Judges 2:12-13)

No wonder You were angry, Father!

These were gods of their own creation
gods You had warned them against

gods who had never done anything for them
because as the product of their imaginations

they couldn’t.

The things I create contain the same danger, LORD.

May I keep You first, always, Jesus!
employing what I create

to serve You.

Pray this Lazaroo in utter trust:

“They followed and worshiped various gods of the peoples around them.”
(Judges 2:12)

That’s the danger of hanging around the wrong people, isn’t it, Jesus?

That the gods they worship –

success, fame, money
sex, drugs, alcohol
sport, entertainment, popularity –

might entice me to follow them, rather than You.

Fool move?

Yup.

Their gods are no gods at all.

But the more time I spend in their world of smoke and mirrors

the deeper I sink into the quicksand of their lies.
