Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted acceptance:

“…it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.”
(1 Peter 2:15-17)

You know how hard it is to obey those last three words, Jesus!

Especially when I despise their words and actions.

But You have Your reasons.

Bottom line?
That’s good enough for me.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“…the women are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers…”
(1 Timothy 3:11)

Amen, Jesus.

If there’s one thing that can ruin the harmony in Your Church
it’s a group of women who are malicious talkers.

Of course, there’s a second thing that can ruin the harmony in Your Church:

a group of men who are malicious talkers.

Even one man.
Even one woman.

That’s all it takes to create incalculable harm.

May I never be guilty of this disruptive sin!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them, and not to steal from them…”
(Titus 2:9-10)

From the moment I said yes to You, Jesus

I became Your slave –

which means that’s how I, too, should live.

No matter how someone lords it over me

You want me to treat them with respect
and act honorably toward them

because they’ve been created in Your Image
and I represent You!

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…women are to be worthy of respect…”
(1 Timothy 3:11)

So are the men, Jesus.

We’re not merely to demand respect.
You expect us to earn it.

How?

By the way we speak
by the way we act.

by the way we live our lives wholeheartedly for You – 

staying in Your Word
praying through the day
loving and encouraging Your people

sharing Your Good News
with those who don’t know You

showing others the same mercy
we ourselves have received from You.

Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“In the same way, deacons are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain. They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.”
(1 Timothy 3:8-10)

All these things really matter to You, don’t they, Jesus?

That’s why they matter to me.

May I live out each day
the holy life to which I’m called!

Be humbly forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from the Lord.”
(2 Peter 2:10-11)

What a lesson, Jesus!

Even though You command me to resist the demonic work
of those powerful angels who followed Satan

because You created them
I’m to treat them with respect

as I do my earth-bound enemies.

Lean heavily on God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now the overseer… must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)
(1 Timothy 3:2,4-5)

What a challenge for this man You’ve called into Your service, Jesus!

You know how Satan attacks him, his wife
and every member of his family.

Protect them, LORD!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“‘It is you who have ruined my vineyard; the plunder from the poor is in your houses. What do you mean by crushing my people and grinding the faces of the poor?’ declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.”
(Isaiah 3:14-15)

May you never say that of me, Jesus!

I know You love and care for the poor.

That means I had better love and care for them, too –

offering them the wholehearted respect
due everyone created in Your Image.

Pray this Lazaroo with Golden Rule Godliness:

“How painful are honest words!”
(Job 6:25)

That’s so true, Jesus.

Honest words can be incredibly painful –

Especially when I’m telling someone
something they don’t want to hear
but need to hear.

Help me be honest with everyone!

But also…

help me be kind.

There’s a way to tell a hard truth
using soft, encouraging, uplifting, hope-filled words

and to do so with a humble spirit
in mutual respect

telling others the truth
the way I want it told to me.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble obedience:

“They are to take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand that is for light, together with its lamps, its wick trimmers and trays, and all its jars for the olive oil used to supply it. Then they are to wrap it and all its accessories in a covering of the durable leather and put it on a carrying frame.”
(Numbers 4:9-10)

Oh, the care You want us to take

with the things we use to worship You, Jesus!

in holy respect.
