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

“…encourage the young men to be self-controlled.”
(Titus 2:6)

Of course, all of us need to be self-controlled, Jesus

not just young men

but also young women, older women, older men.

Perhaps that’s because it’s harder for a young man to learn…

not to mention so very important.

I love the word, “encourage,” though!

Not simply a gruff command

but using words that explain
offer helpful examples
give incentive
inspire hope

letting these young men know:

They can do this!

…and so can I.

Pray this Lazaroo freed of illusion:

“My lover is mine…”
(Song of Songs 2:16)

What a desperate declaration for Solomon’s wife to make, Jesus

in light of the fact that she was only one of 700 –
not to mention Solomon’s 300 concubines.

The less we human beings possess, Father

the more we pretend to have.

It’s easy for me to see that in this woman’s behavior

but where am I exhibiting the same thing in my own?

Nothing I have is mine.
All is Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“His mercy extends to those who fear him…”
(Luke 1:50)

How ironic, Jesus!

If I fear You
I have no reason to be afraid.

But if I don’t fear You
I have every reason to be afraid.

When I fear disappointing You –

not to mention defying You –

I live a better, cleaner, happier life.

But if it didn’t bother me at all to disobey You

that would demonstrate my lack of belief in You

and bring down Your wrath.

Wise up! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Many will follow their shameful ways…”
(2 Peter 2:2)

When “everybody’s doing it,” Jesus

it’s tempting to do it with them.
It feels safer.

But not when the crowd is opposed to You!

‘cause that whole crowd is marching right over the cliff.

Is it tough to stand alone?

Sometimes, yes.

But I’m not alone, am I?

I have You –

not to mention untold millions of my brother and sister Christians.

Because Satan’s a liar.
Everybody’s not “doing it.”

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…not to mention…”
(Philemon 1:19)

Why do I say things like that, Jesus?

Yes, You gave those words to Paul
to gently chide those meeting in Philemon’s home.

Knowing You, it got their attention –

just as I hope it will when I use similar statements.

Sometimes the “one more thing”

is actually the whole point!

Please help me be attentive when others use such words with me, Father

so I don’t miss what You’re saying to me
through them.
