Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. ‘If you are the Son of God,’ he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: ‘’He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
(Matthew 4:5-6)

Help me never forget, Jesus:

When the devil quotes Scripture

it’s always twisted out of context
always for an evil purpose.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“To those who sold doves he said, ‘Get those out of here! How dare you turn my Father’s house into a market!’ His disciples remembered that it is written: ‘Zeal for your house will consume me.’”
(John 2:16-17)

Does zeal for Your house consume me, Jesus?

It should.
I know it should.

I should care more about the place You have provided for me to worship

than I do about the house where I live.

You first.
Everything else second.

Always.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“The tempter came to him and said, ‘If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.’ Jesus answered, ‘It is written: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”’”
(Matthew 3:3-4)

That’s how to deal with Satan’s temptations, isn’t it, Jesus?

Quote Your Word to him
then don’t budge an inch.

Of course, I have to instantly be ready with Your Word

the moment temptation comes.

Maybe I’d better do a little more homework.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“However, as it is written…”
(1 Corinthians 2:9)

“However,” indeed, Jesus.

If I move out on my own
pull me back to You with:

“…as it is written.”

Every time I’m with people who are about to do wrong
give me the courage to take a stand for:

“…as it is written.”

Your Word is a lamp to my feet, a light on my path.

Make me willing to break away from those
who have no Light of dawn.
