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 with deep reverence:

“What advantage, then, is there in being a Jew, or what value is there in circumcision? Much in every way! First of all, the Jews have been entrusted with the very words of God. What if some were unfaithful? Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness? Not at all! Let God be true, and every human being a liar.”
(Romans 3:1-4)

You made some promises to Abraham, Moses and David, Jesus.

You intend to keep them.

You’ve made promises to me, too

all of which You will fulfill.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.”
(1 John 2:22)

You’re the Promised One, Jesus!

The Christ.
The Messiah.
The Savior of all who believe.

All who reject this truth are not only liars, but they’re the antichrist.

To deny You is to deny the Father
because You and the Father are One!

There’s a place for compromise.

This isn’t it.

Pray this Lazaroo with eyes wide open:

“Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ.”
(1 John 2:22)

That clears up a few things, Jesus.

The atheist is a liar.

So when the atheist marshals their arguments against You

underneath every statement, every carefully-chosen fact
is hidden a deeply ugly secret:

The atheist isn’t seeking truth.

The atheist is desperately searching for a way
to escape Your authority over their life.

But their attempts are futile.

For one day soon they will stand before You

condemned.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned recognition:

“…no lie comes from the truth.”
(1 John 2:21)

What a powerful reminder, Jesus!

Every lie comes from the pits of hell

from the father of lies:

Satan.

If I tell a lie, that’s where I went to get it.

That’s who I consorted with to produce it.

If someone else lies to me, they pulled it right out of the flames.

They buddied up with Satan – if only a moment –

to receive it from his dirty, filthy, deceiving

smelly, evil hands.

Kinda makes me wanna stick to the truth.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“‘In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.’ These are the people who divide you…”
(Jude 1:18-19)

These people like to divide and conquer, don’t they, Jesus?

They’ll tell any lie
twist any truth
to secure an advantage.

They delight in turning one person against another

leaving them in the driver’s seat with both.

Help me see through them, Holy Spirit!

May I strive for unity
with all who wholeheartedly follow You.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed faithfulness:

“If a liar and deceiver comes and says, ‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’ that would be just the prophet for this people!”
(Micah 2:11)

We’ve got a problem, Jesus.

We tend to listen to people who tell us what we want to hear
rather than people who faithfully listen to You
and tell us what we need to hear.

I don’t want to be that person!

May I heed only what comes from You!

Pray this Lazaroo with rock-solid confidence:

“So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets…”
(Matthew 2:23)

Always, Jesus.

Always, always, always.
You always keep Your Word.

In this world of

“I was going to…”
“I meant to…”
“Something came up…”
“I may have been mistaken…”
“I hope this is good enough…”
“I have no idea what happened…”
“Oops!”

…and outright liars

the utter reliability of Your Word is the only thing I can trust

because You are the only one I can trust.

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

“…the God of…Jacob…”
(Exodus 3:16)

When You identify Yourself as a specific person’s God

You’re telling me something important, Jesus.

Jacob was a liar, a cheat, a conniver and a thief.

He loved one of his wives and not the other.
He had an excuse for that…but not before You.

And oh, yeah…

he was the grandson of Abraham
and father of 12 sons who became the 12 tribes of Israel.

Which – among other things – means:

You’ll use anybody.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“I am not lying…”
(1 Timothy 2:7)

I feel for the Apostle Paul, Jesus.

These people thought so little of him
that he had to defend his own honor as a truthful man.

The worst part about it is that the moment you have to protest:

“I’m not lying!”

…it sounds like you are.

I know. I’ve been there.

The moment those words left my mouth
I felt how unbelievable they sounded.

But You know.
The truth will come out.
