Be forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The Amorites who lived in those hills came out against you; they chased you like a swarm of bees and beat you down from Seir all the way to Hormah. You came back and wept before the Lord, but he paid no attention to your weeping and turned a deaf ear to you.”
(Deuteronomy 1:44-45)

You’re longsuffering, Jesus

but there comes a day when I will ignore You for the last time.

And then…God help me!

You’ll ignore me.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable persistence:

“So I told you, but you would not listen. You rebelled against the Lord’s command and in your arrogance you marched up into the hill country.”
(Deuteronomy 1:43)

I know how Moses feels, Jesus

well…just a little.

I’ve shared warnings You’ve shared with me

only to have people ignore me

and even worse, ignore You!

But just when I start to climb up on my soap box of holier-than-thou

You remind me of times

when I’ve ignored Your warning.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed faith:

“Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘An enemy will overrun your land, pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses.’”
(Amos 3:11)

When we keep sinning and sinning and sinning, Jesus…

when we continually ignore Your Voice, calling us to return to You…

there’s always a “therefore,” isn’t there?

I dare not mistake your patience for powerlessness.

I don’t want enemies to overrun my land
pull down my strongholds
plunder my fortresses.

I’ve got to repent and turn it around.

Now.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…what ought not to be done.”
(Romans 1:28)

I don’t like to think about this, Jesus.

It reminds me of all the times
I’ve been guilty of this very thing.

It’s bad enough when I make an innocent mistake
when I’m guilty of an unintended error in judgment

far worse when I know the good I ought to do
and don’t do it

when I know the evil I dare not do
and do it anyway.

Heal me, Father!
