Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.”
(Revelation 2:15-16)

These Nicolaitans were a dangerous bunch, Jesus.

They worshiped You…

right alongside false gods.

So, on the surface, it seemed like they were trying to do right

but by polluting their worship of You with evil

they led many astray.

You alone, LORD!

You alone.

Pray this Lazaroo in trembling expectation:

“…you have destroyed lands…”
(Habakkuk 2:8)

The more successful and prosperous we become, Jesus

the more of Your lands we destroy.

We pile our refuse in great, ugly heaps to rot in the sun

sending their stench into Your heavens.

We pipe our poisons into Your lakes, rivers and oceans

thereby polluting Your earth when we water our fields

and drink.

We call this progress.

But there is coming a day when You will arise and declare:

“Enough!”

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.”
(Revelation 2:6)

For good reason, Jesus.

These people polluted Your good news
with teachings taken from false religions.

It might not be a bad idea

for me to hate what You hate –
which raises the question:

What false teachings

are people mixing in along with Your Word today?
Are any of them slipping by me?

Show me LORD!

so I can hate them as passionately as do You.

Take stock, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”
(James 1:27)

Well that clears up a few things, Jesus!

Our list of religious behaviors is longer.

Perhaps because it’s easier to help widows and orphans

than to keep myself unpolluted by the world.

Am I adding to the list

in an attempt to mask my worldly pollution?
