Check the mirror, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry. He prayed to the Lord, ‘Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home?’”
(Jonah 4:1-2)

First, Jonah runs from You, Jesus.

After he spends three days in the belly of a fish

he repents.

But when his obedience doesn’t go the way he likes

he justifies why he ran from You to begin with.

It’s a good thing I don’t ever do anything like that, Father.

Right…?

Right…?

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh:”
(Jonah 3:7)

Unbelievably powerful, Jesus.

An unrighteous king hears a message from You
recognizes the error of his ways
repents of his sin

and here’s the part that nails it:

he makes it public!

As a result, the whole nation repents!

Great God!
Give us leaders of such great courage today.
I beg You!

because that just may be what it takes

to rescue my country and all the nations
from the coming disaster we deserve.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned gratitude:

“Woe to him who…establishes a town by crime!”
(Habakkuk 2:12)

I can’t even begin to imagine how many towns have been established by crime, Jesus.

It has to be a huge number.

But the point is this:

It didn’t pay off.
Not for the people who did it.

Oh, they may have appeared to prosper in the beginning
but the end is what matters –

and that was a different story.

Well…unless they repented!

In that case
You turn our woe…into “Woah!”

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 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.

Friday, June 30, 2017

 

Pray this Lazaroo in triumphant humility:

“…he has…sent me against the nations that have plundered you…”
(Zechariah 2:8)

That’s all I need to know, Jesus.

There will come a day when You will send Your mighty angel

to right the wrongs
to pay back evildoers
to make sure justice is served
to avenge me of my adversaries.

Of course, I don’t want that angel to visit me!

So I need to be sure that whatever wrongs I’ve committed
are confessed, repented of, forsaken, under Your blood.
