Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Not satisfied with that…”
(3 John 1:10)

This guy Diotrephes was a real piece of work, Jesus.

He wasn’t satisfied with causing a little bit of trouble.
He wanted to create a lot –

which is why Paul called him out on it.

But that raises an interesting question:

Am I satisfied with doing a little bit of good, now and then?

Or am I not satisfied

until I am fully, completely, wholeheartedly
fulfilling Your highest plan for my life!

Pray this Lazaroo in no-excuses assessment:

“…if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless…”
(2 Peter 2:6-7)

That raises an important question, Jesus:

Did You rescue Lot – at least in part –
because he hated the sin of his city?

And if so…

do I hate the depraved conduct of mine?

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…every man stopped when he came to the place where Asahel had fallen and died.”
(2 Samuel 2:23)

There’s death everywhere on the battlefield, Jesus.

Why stop over Asahel’s body?
Because he was General Joab’s brother.

Not only the prominent – but everyone’s death matters to You!

It should to me

especially because it raises the most important question of all:

“Did they go to heaven or hell?”

The answer? Heaven –

but only if they had put their trust in You.

Pray this Lazaroo with full-on caution:

“In their greed…”
(2 Peter 2:3)

People do a lot of shameful things, Jesus…

in their greed.

What is there about me that wants more than I need?

Why do I sometimes fail to consider that what I take for myself
could rob someone else of what they require?

But that raises the bigger question, doesn’t it?

Why do I act like it’s all about me?
Where do I get off behaving with this detestable attitude of –

“Me first?”
