Pray this Lazaroo with deepened, determined understanding:

“…was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.”
(James 2:25-26)

I have faith in You, Jesus. I do.

Because that’s true
my actions will show it.

But if there is no behavior to back up my faith

the reality of my faith
can be called into question.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“When they left…”
(Joshua 2:22)

Joshua’s spies left when they had to, Jesus.

Otherwise, they would have failed in Your purpose.

There’s a time for me to leave, too.

Jobs…relationships…homes…churches…cities…countries –

any of those and plenty else –

are up for grabs.

But sometimes You call me to stay in them for now…

or for the duration.

So the reason for me to leave anything, anyone, anywhere

is not because it’s hard, boring, dangerous, painful

but only because You say so.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…she tied the scarlet cord in the window.”
(Joshua 2:21)

And by that scarlet cord, Jesus

Rahab the prostitute saved hers and her family’s lives
when Joshua destroyed the city of Jericho.

I’m thinking of another scarlet cord, Father –

the blood of Your Son, shed on the cross
paying for the sins of all who believe.

Even less deserving than Rahab

I’m tying that scarlet cord in my window
for You to see when You come for Your own!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“‘Agreed,’ she replied. ‘Let it be as you say.’”
(Joshua 2:21)

Giving my word is no small thing, Jesus.

In this case, Rahab was making a promise
that would save hers and her family’s lives…

but only if she kept her word.

The stakes may not be that high for me, Father –

at least, not so far as I know –

but they’re huge, nonetheless.

If I’m a person of integrity people will trust me

when I point them to You.
