Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Cain said to the Lord, ‘My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.’ But the Lord said to him, ‘Not so; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.’”
(Genesis 4:13-15)

You are stunningly good to the worst of us, Jesus!

…which explains why You are so good to me.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“As I listened, he said to the others, ‘Follow him through the city and kill, without showing pity or compassion. Slaughter the old men, the young men and women, the mothers and children, but do not touch anyone who has the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.’”
(Ezekiel 9:5-6)

Such violent, merciless punishment violates our modern sensibilities, Jesus.

But we fail to recognize the depth of idolatry’s evil
and the rapidity with which it infects those it touches.

At some point I have to decide:

Do I trust my LORD and Savior to do only what’s right?

Tuesday, January 30, 2024

 

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I am glad and rejoice with all of you. So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.”
(Philippians 2:17-18)

That sounds reasonable, Jesus…

until I realize Paul was referring to his coming martyrdom
for sharing his faith.

Paul had made such an impact for You

that Your enemies wanted to kill him for it.

There are many places in this sin-sick world where that can still happen.

If those were my stakes
would I be willing to take that risk for You?

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Meanwhile, the people in Judah said, ‘The strength of the laborers is giving out, and there is so much rubble that we cannot rebuild the wall.’ Also our enemies said, ‘Before they know it or see us, we will be right there among them and will kill them and put an end to the work.’”
(Nehemiah 4:10-11)

Lies, Jesus. All lies.

That’s who Satan is:

a liar.

May I never allow the false words of my friends or enemies

to hinder my service to You!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians how they might kill Jesus. Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake, and a large crowd from Galilee followed. When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him…”
(Mark 3:6-8)

In the face of these threats, Jesus

You didn’t stay and fight.
You simply went somewhere else and stayed on mission.

Please show me when that is exactly the response

You want me to have.

Pray this Lazaroo in the holy fear of the LORD:

“…the Lord met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. ‘Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,’ she said…referring to circumcision.”
(Exodus 4:24-26)

Had Moses refused to obey You because of his wife, Jesus?

Putting anyone or anything ahead of you is idolatry.
You weren’t about to send an idolater to Egypt to free your people!

Is there anything or anyone with whom I’m committing idolatry, Holy Spirit?

If You were that tough on Moses…

Pray this Lazaroo in chastened awareness:

“…Jesus asked them, ‘Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?’ But they remained silent. He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, Stretch out your hand.’ He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored.”
(Mark 3:4-5)

That’s how You work nearly every miracle, Jesus –

in spite of our animosity, doubt and outright disbelief.

True, some miracles are granted to those who have faith

which comes directly from You

as a gift.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble trust:

“I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. Then say to Pharaoh, ‘This is what the Lord says: Israel is my firstborn son, and I told you, “Let my son go, so he may worship me.” But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.’”
(Exodus 4:21-23)

To us, this seems unjust, Jesus

But no!
You are Just!

This side of heaven, we don’t have the ability to grasp

the mind-bogglingly vast number of factors
that inform Your righteous actions.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the Levites took up the ark…and the tent of meeting and all the sacred furnishings in it…and King Solomon and the entire assembly of Israel that had gathered about him were before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted.”
(2 Chronicles 5:4-6)

Oh, Jesus.

I’m so glad I don’t have to kill a bunch of animals
to worship You.

You sacrificed Yourself for me!

In grateful devotion for the rest of my days
I sacrifice myself in passionate service for You.

Watch it happen! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will leave you no prey on the earth.’”
(Nahum 2:13)

What happens to a carnivore when there’s no longer any prey, Jesus?

If they have nothing to kill

they can’t eat.

If they have nothing to eat

they’ll die.

You’re slow to anger, abounding in love.

But when Your patience is met by unrelenting, vicious behavior

You pronounce sentence.
