Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

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

That had to be hard, Jesus!

Many slave masters tend to issue their orders
with disrespect, belittling, disdain.

I’ve been spoken to like that myself.

When that happens, everything in me
wants to respond in kind.

How could they – how can I –

not talk back under those circumstances?

Only You, dear LORD!
Only You!

Pray this Lazaroo with enlightened understanding:

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them…”
(Titus 2:9)

In today’s world, Jesus

we’d be hard-pressed to find a single public figure
who would affirm this passage of Scripture.

But that’s because we just don’t get it, do we?

Paul wanted slave masters to be blown away
by the amazing difference there was in slaves who follow you
contrasted with everyone else.

He knew that would bring glory to You

and a better life to those trapped
in the evil of slavery.
