Pray this Lazaroo with clear-eyed resolve:

“He did evil in the eyes of the LORD…”
(2 Kings 3:2)

When it comes to doing good or evil, Jesus

Yours are the only eyes that matter.

My culture applauds behaviors You call sin.
My culture decries actions You command me to carry out.

Without question, my culture exerts a lot of pressure on me to conform.

But last time I checked…

at the end of my life I will stand before You
and not my culture.

 Pray this Lazaroo…on high alert: 

“‘You will not surely die,’ the serpent said to the woman…”
(Genesis 3:4)

You called Satan a liar, Jesus.

The problem is, he seldom identifies himself when he lies to me!

He speaks through my unwitting friends and family
weaves his web of falsehood through my culture.

But his most insidious disguise

is when he masquerades as me

deceiving me into believing his thoughts…are mine.

Help me measure every idea that pops into my mind
by the straightedge of Your Word.
