Christ is RISEN! Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.”
(3 John 1:8)

It’s not about merely working together, is it, Jesus?

It’s working together for the truth.

Your Word is truth.

People who don’t honor Your Word

by believing it
by obeying it

have a different agenda
a different purpose for the work they do.

It’s not my responsibility to judge them

nor is it wisdom for me to show them the same hospitality

You reserve for those who follow You.

Pray this Lazaroo from a tender heart:

“turn, my lover…”
(Song of Songs 2:17)

Solomon’s bride wants him to turn toward her and love her, Jesus

just as You call us to turn away
from those things that distract us from loving You.

How can I show You my love today?

Certainly, what I’m doing right now, is one way.
So is reading, studying, obeying Your Word in my life.

But it also includes helping others
and sharing Your good news of salvation with the lost.

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

“If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture…”
(James 2:8)

It’s possible to have one of Your laws in my theology, Jesus

without having it in my life.

How can I say I believe what You say

if I don’t do what You say?

It’s a lie, isn’t it?
If I truly believe it, I’ll do it.

Saying I believe without action
is self-deluded disobedience.

Please show me:

Where am I giving mere lip service to Your Word?

Follow the inner prompting of the Holy Spirit as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Turn aside to the right or to the left…”
(2 Samuel 2:21)

You’ve clearly commanded me Jesus:

Don’t turn aside to the right or the left
when it comes to obeying Your Word.

But Abner was warning Asahel.

When Asahel refused to turn aside
it cost him his life.

So sometimes I should refuse to change course

and at other times I’d better!

How can I recognize the difference?

Only as I follow You
every step of the way.

Pray this Lazaroo, sobered:

“I write to you, fathers…”
(1 John 2:13)

Thank You, Jesus!

because the fathers of our day
need a good writing-to.

Of course, You’ve already written.

But are fathers reading what You’ve given them?
Are they taking it to heart, obeying it?

Some are.

Some are rejecting the Bible entirely.

Others, deluded, are picking and choosing which parts they like

discarding the rest

as though Your Word was a buffet line
where desserts can be eaten

the meat ignored.
