Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Though you, Israel, commit adultery, do not let Judah become guilty.”
(Hosea 4:15)

A command like that is hard to obey, Jesus.

Certainly, a person caught in sin might wish for better
for someone they truly love.

But it’s incredibly hard to tell someone:

“Don’t do as I’ve done.
Do as I say.”

A bad example is a tall, tall mountain to climb.

From this moment forward, help me set a good example

for everyone I want to see live for You!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.”
(Daniel 2:42-43)

That’s what sin does to me, isn’t it, Jesus?

It’s the clay mixed with Your holy iron

that makes me fragile and brittle.

I long for all of me

to be filled with You!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds. Woe to the wicked! Disaster is upon them! They will be paid back for what their hands have done.”
(Isaiah 3:10-11)

Kinda sounds like I’m going to harvest what I plant, Jesus.

That being so…

I want to plant all the good I can possibly get in the ground
and keep pulling up all the weeds of my sin

that my sinful human nature keeps trying to sow.

Pray this Lazaroo with straightened priorities:

“I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard?”
(Galatians 3:2)

If there was ever a rhetorical question, Jesus

this is it.

Paul knew the answer!

He devoted his entire life to sharing the good news
that while no one is good enough to earn heaven
You paid our sin debt with Your life on the cross

for all who truly believe.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep gratitude:

“If, however, they cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, they are to bring as an offering for their sin a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour for a sin offering.”
(Leviticus 5:11)

I love this about You, Jesus!

You set a high and holy standard
but You never set it beyond our ability to reach

so long as we look to You
for the help only You can give!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He then made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. In them the things to be used for the burnt offerings were rinsed, but the Sea was to be used by the priests for washing.”
(2 Chronicles 4:6)

So even back then, Jesus

You were demanding clean offerings

clean hands.

But only You

can purify these flawed, imperfect gifts
I offer up to You.

Only You

can cleanse these hands of mine
that have done so much sinning!

Pray this Lazaroo with wholehearted adoration:

“As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they must bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for them for their sin. Anyone who cannot afford a lamb is to bring two doves or two young pigeons…”
(Leviticus 5:6-7)

I love this about You, Jesus!

Even while punishing our sins
You compassionately remember the poor.

May I always show them
the same, loving respect.

Pray this Lazaroo in thudding realization:

“’I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.’ To the woman he said, ‘I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.’”
(Genesis 3:15-16)

First You punished the serpent, Jesus

then You punished the woman.

The man’s next, isn’t He?

For deliberate sin

there’s a price.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. The angel said to those who were standing before him, ‘Take off his filthy clothes.’ Then he said to Joshua, ‘See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you.’”
(Zechariah 3:4-5)

Is that how I look to you when I sin, Jesus?

As though I’m dressed in filthy clothes?

Wow.
I didn’t know.

I repent, LORD!

Clothe me in Your righteousness!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“‘Go to Bethel and sin; go to Gilgal and sin yet more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three years. Burn leavened bread as a thank offering and brag about your freewill offerings—boast about them, you Israelites, for this is what you love to do,’ declares the Sovereign Lord.”
(Amos 4:4-5)

On the cusp of this New Year, Jesus

I’ve got to remember it’s not enough to jump through the hoops.

For You…

it’s all about my heart.
