Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil; but in the end she is bitter as gall, sharp as a double-edged sword. Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave. She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.”
(Proverbs 5:3-6)

This is true of every temptation Satan offers, Jesus.

Help me always give him one, emphatic, nonnegotiable reply:

“NO!”

Pray this Lazaroo in spiritual sobriety:

“…you have destroyed…cities…”
(Habakkuk 2:8)

The mistake I make, Jesus

(among many others)

is in focusing on the evil that Satan and his minions have done

rather than on the reality of what You will do in response
when the times have reached their fulfillment.

I see too small a section of the puzzle

to be able to fathom how You’re piecing it all together.

So what am I left with, Father?

Trust.
Rock-solid trust.

In the end
You win.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Will not all of them taunt him with…scorn…”
(Habakkuk 2:6)

Scorn is incredibly hard to take, Jesus.

It stings, hurts, belittles.

Filled with malicious anger

it cuts deep to the quick.

Scorn is exactly what awaits the evil person.

At first, it doesn’t look like it.
But that’s what happens in the end.

May I never allow myself to be duped by Satan into that destiny, Father!

but may I take comfort in knowing
nice people don’t finish last.
