Pray this Lazaroo in heart-pounding love:

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.”
(1 Peter 2:13-14)

It’s a spiritual crime, Jesus

to disobey those You’ve placed over me.

That’s a game-changer!

I will do my best to obey those in authority

who are obeying You.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“This is what the Lord says: ‘As for the prophets who lead my people astray, if one feeds them, they proclaim “peace”…’”
(Micah 3:5)

False prophecy is disgusting, Jesus.

Lying to the people who feed them
pandering to them, reassuring them

in spite of the fact
that they were sent by You
to warn them.

Question:

Do I ever tell people what they want to hear

instead of what they need to hear

because I want them to like me?

Pray this Lazaroo with deep gratitude:

“…my fellow workers.”
(Philemon 1:24)

What would I do without them, Jesus?

Sometimes they’re official –
employees working for the same company.

Sometimes they’re volunteers –
serving alongside me in Your church.

Sometimes they’re family members
helping me tackle a project
too big for me to handle alone.

They might even be a stranger
who helps me change a tire
when they see me on the side of the road.

But of this I’m certain:

every one of them has been sent by You.
