Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He then made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. In them the things to be used for the burnt offerings were rinsed, but the Sea was to be used by the priests for washing.”
(2 Chronicles 4:6)

So even back then, Jesus

You were demanding clean offerings

clean hands.

But only You

can purify these flawed, imperfect gifts
I offer up to You.

Only You

can cleanse these hands of mine
that have done so much sinning!

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.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…how…blameless…we were among you…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:10)

People have called me many names over the years, Jesus

but no one has ever called me, “blameless.”

And even if they did

You wouldn’t.

Except…

You said if I’d confess my sins
You’d cleanse me from every one of them

Because I’ve put my trust in You alone

You’ve removed my sins from me
as far as the east is from the west

Wow.

So in the only Eyes that matter
I’m blameless.

 Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal: 

“Jerusalem has become an unclean thing…”
(Lamentations 1:17)

That’s the last thing I want to happen, Jesus…

but because of my sin

it has –

too many times to count.

I beg You for Your help.

I’m sincere. I mean it to the bone.

Then, when tempted

too often I push Your help aside
and plunge into the cesspool

for another putrid dip.

What am I thinking, Father?

Obviously, I’m not.

Cleanse me! Purify me! Rescue me!

…once again.
