Pray this Lazaroo in heartbroken realization:

“…even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.”
(1 John 2:18)

It’s true, Jesus.

The number of people who reject You is growing exponentially.

There was a time when people who committed evil acts were ashamed.

They hid what they did and when confronted
either denied it or repented.

No more.

Increasingly, they flaunt Your Word and openly celebrate their sin.

Only You know whether this is the last hour

or the last minute.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“The LORD will…again choose Jerusalem.”
(Zechariah 2:12)

It’s devastating to be rejected by You, Jesus!

Of course, that only happens
when we’ve first rejected You.

Justice demands that our rejection of You

should result in our permanent rejection.

But Your mercy triumphs over justice!

When we have been humbled
when we have repented
when we have returned to You with all our hearts

after You have disciplined us less than our sins deserve

oh, hallelujah! You’ll choose us again!

Pray this Lazaroo in pure trust:

“The Ninevites believed God.”
(Jonah 3:5)

Every time I take You at Your Word, Jesus…

every time I decide to act on it
every time I follow through with 100% obedience

good things happen!

Well…they don’t just “happen.”

YOU make them happen!

In this case, You sent Jonah to tell the Ninevites that You were going to destroy their city because of their many sins.

When they believed You and repented, however,
You spared them.

O God!
Spare me!

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“He proclaimed, ‘Forty more days and Ninevah will be overturned.’”
(Jonah 3:4)

Finally, Jonah obeyed You, Jesus.

First, he ran away
hopped a ship in the opposite direction.

Stupid decision.
No one can run away from You.

You sent a storm so bad the sailors threw him overboard
had a great fish swallow him until he repented, then spit him out.

Now, he’s preaching like You told him to.

How much better
when I obey You the first time!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.”
(John 1:44)

The Jewish people living there witnessed Your amazing miracles, Jesus

but many refused to believe –
even though three of Your disciples were from there!

You told them if the pagans living in Tyre and Sidon had seen those same miracles

they would have repented and believed.

You don’t need to do anything more than You already have, Father

for me – with all my heart – to believe.

Take warning as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The metal on the chariots flashes…”
(Nahum 2:3)

It’s happening in broad daylight, Jesus

and there’s not one thing the Ninevites can do about it.
This punishment is from You.

Why?

It was their cruelty, wasn’t it?
their witchcraft and prostitution.

You sent your prophet Jonah to warn them.

They listened! Repented!
You relented.

But after You showed them kindness

they went right back to it.

O God!

May I never repeat their mistake
in response to Your grace.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Salvation comes from the LORD.”
(Jonah 2:9)

Okay, Jesus…that’s true!

But not exactly a news flash.
That’s pretty much Your specialty.

But this statement comes from the mouth of the runaway prophet Jonah

from inside the belly of a great fish
who had swallowed him
and was trying to digest him.

So this was a statement of pure faith!

I love that You give those who run from You
the chance to repent, turn around
and run back.
