Pray this Lazaroo with eyes wide open:

“‘Stand in the doorway of the tent,’ he told her. ‘If someone comes by and asks you, “Is anyone in there?” say “No.”’” But Jael, Heber’s wife, picked up a tent peg and a hammer and went quietly to him while he lay fast asleep, exhausted. She drove the peg through his temple into the ground, and he died.”
(Judges 4:20-21)

Jael did this for You, Jesus.

But the principle is clear:

If I don’t know for a fact someone is trustworthy
never let down my guard.

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered humility:

“Wisdom will save you…from the wayward wife…who has left the partner of her youth…”
(Proverbs 2:12, 16-17)

There’s not a man alive who doesn’t need that wisdom, Jesus

not a wife who doesn’t need Your help
to keep from becoming that woman.

The more conscientious the person

the less worried they are it will happen to them
the more vulnerable they become to Satan’s trap.

Better people than I have fallen!

Don’t allow me
to let down my guard.

Strap on your armor as you pray this Lazaroo: 

“…like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”
(2 Timothy 2:3)

So much for pacifism, huh, Jesus?

You haven’t called me to join a country club.
You’ve called me to serve in Your army.

This life is a battle.

If I want to win, I can’t sit back and watch.
I’ve got to fight.

Confession?

Sometimes I get battle-weary.
I want to call “Time out!”

But that’s not gonna happen, is it?

The moment I let down my guard
I lose.
