Pray this Lazaroo with full-on ardor:

“Repent…”
(Revelation 2:5)

One word, Jesus

the only hope this repeat offender has.

Words are cheap.

I can say I’m sorry and mean it.

But I’ve got to hate what I did
not just hate the fact that I got caught.

I’ve got to turn it around
make amends
do something different.

And the next time that same temptation shows up at my door selling its filthy wares

I’ve got to spit in its face
and slam the door.

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered awe::

“…he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under…”
(Matthew 2:16)

No wonder You destroyed this man, Jesus!

He ordered the slaughter of innocents
in an attempt to keep Himself from being overthrown

by You.

To no avail.

When his time came, You took him down
in a manner befitting the ugliness of his evil soul.

As You will do to all evildoers

who fail to sincerely repent.

 Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion: 

“…nothing escapes them.”
(Joel 2:3)

This is bone-chilling, Jesus.

When You send punishment
nothing escapes.

You don’t do a half-way, hit-or-miss job.
It gets done.

Punishment delivered…
in full.

But all You need is my, sincere, heartfelt apology

coupled with genuine repentance –
an about-face in my actions

to deliver me from Your wrath.

You look straight into my heart.
You see whether or not I fully intend to follow You.

That’s all it takes
for You to give me another chance.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow…”
(Philippians 1:26)

I long to have that effect on others, Jesus!

to be the bearer of good news
to be used by You to draw others close to You.

Ironically, that sometimes requires me to start with the bad news

that they – like I – are sinners who need to repent
that refusal to repent and believe in Your

death
burial
resurrection

will land them eternally in hell.
