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 with burning emotion:

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition…”
(Philippians 2:3)

That’s a tall order, Jesus!

Oh, not because I don’t agree.
But because selfish ambition is so hard to recognize.

Oh, not all that hard to recognize in others.
But devilishly hard to recognize in myself.

I used the right word, didn’t I?

Selfish ambition comes straight from the pits of hell.

O God!

Forgive me for every self-centered thought and act!

Purify my ambition!
May I desire Your will

and Your will alone.

Cry out to God! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…they are…ruthless.”
(Romans 1:31)

How can anyone stand against the ruthless, Jesus?

If they’re more powerful, they can and will
smash us into the ground.

They don’t seem to have the ability to empathize

to feel another person’s pain.

They’re possessed by a desire to pillage, harm and destroy.

“Possessed” is the right word, isn’t it?
Their ruthlessness comes straight from the pits of hell.

End their reign, LORD God Almighty!

Rescue Your humble, hurting people from their clutches.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled awareness:

“Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith…?”
(James 2:5)

Wow. Why would that be, Jesus?

Atheists might suggest that the poor are undereducated.

But any education that points away from You

originates in the fiery pits of hell.

Perhaps their lack of money is a clue, however.

Those not blinded by the false hope of riches
are among the first to recognize:

You are our only Hope.
