Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“‘Hear this and testify against the descendants of Jacob,’ declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.”
(Amos 3:13)

Some things are hard to hear, Jesus

so we plug our ears
making noises with our mouths
engaging in frenetic activity

trying to keep Your warnings of doom
from penetrating all the way to our hearts
forcing us to repent.

But it’s the hardest messages from You

that I most need to hear, isn’t it?

Forgive me, LORD!
I’m listening.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“…turning neither to the right nor to the left…”
(2 Samuel 2:19)

That can be a wonderful trait, Jesus

when I’m headed in the right direction.

No detours. No distractions. No time outs.

Straight for the righteous goal.

But it’s a terrible quality when I’m rushing down the wrong path

stubbornly refusing to listen to anyone
who warns me of the danger.

God grant me the wisdom to know when to listen

and when to plug my ears.
