Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…these teachers will exploit you…”
(2 Peter 2:3)

That’s not what they’re supposed to do, Jesus

not even teachers who don’t know You
let alone those who claim they do.

Teachers are supposed to dispense information

at the very least enable us to regurgitate it
at best…equip us to lead better, more productive lives

maybe even Godly lives.

So when a teacher sells out to exploit their students?

My guess is:

In Your perfect way and time
You’ll step in.

Pray this Lazaroo with Holy Spirit-led discernment:

“They will secretly introduce destructive heresies…”
(2 Peter 2:2)

That’s the worst kind, Jesus.

A heresy – teaching something contrary to Your Word –
is bad enough.

Some heresies are factual mistakes –

perpetrated by people who mean well
whose scholarship is lacking.

In some cases their error is troubling, but limited.

However, when someone deliberately sets out to deceive Your people

in order to destroy them?

Their Satan-inspired lies will be exposed and sent to hell

along with those who crafted them.

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“You must teach what is in accord with sound doctrine.”
(Titus 2:1)

In other words, Jesus…

whatever I tell others
has to agree with Your Word.

Not just part of the Bible.

All of it.

It would be easy for me to isolate a verse

take it out of context
imply something misleading.

I don’t dare do that!

You want me to stay in Your Word each day
reading it, studying it, absorbing it

living it out every day.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…you…by your teaching have caused many to stumble…”
(Malachi 2:8)

Teachers are so important – to every one of us, Jesus!

But if teachers can’t be trusted…

if they twist the knowledge they share
if they mislead the trusting, the naïve, the ignorant

everyone who sits under them
is at risk.

True, those who blindly follow their teachers share the blame.

But the teacher who deliberately sticks out a foot to trip them
is at the greatest risk of all.

 Pray this Lazaroo with Spirit-led discernment:: 

“And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet…”
(Matthew 2:15)

Thank You for true prophets, Jesus –

all the more because charlatans
still roam the streets.

Perhaps the most dangerous are those who believe they’re truly hearing from You

when in fact, they’re prophesying the delusions of their own minds.

They mislead many, because in their mistaken sincerity
they could pass a lie detector test.

Protect me, Father!

May I never fall under their spell.
