Awake! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“In that day seven women will take hold of one man and say, ‘We will eat our own food and provide our own clothes; only let us be called by your name. Take away our disgrace!’”
(Isaiah 4:1)

Sin doesn’t end in triumph, Jesus

but in humiliation.

Satan packs all his pleasures into the first moments of my disobedience

then leaves me hurting, disgraced, bankrupt.

How many times do I have to see this outcome of temptation

before I reject it?

Pray this Lazaroo in heart pounding love:

“Take hold of my words with all your heart; keep my commands, and you will live. Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn away from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.”
(Proverbs 4:4-6)

Look and see, Jesus!

I’m taking hold of Your words with all my heart
doing my best – always and forever –
to obey Your Word.

Give me wisdom!
Give me understanding!

Pray this Lazaroo with incentivized gratitude:

“Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding, Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.”
(Proverbs 3:13, 17-18)

Some people think doing the wise thing is no fun, Jesus.

But that’s a lie, isn’t it?
Straight from the pits of hell.

Pleasantness
P
eace
Life
Blessing

Those sound awfully good to me!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Aaron and his descendants were the ones who presented offerings…on the altar of incense…”
(1 Chronicles 6:49)

This altar of incense was Your idea, Father

about 18 inches square
maybe three feet high

made of acacia wood
overlaid with pure gold

the famous “horns of the altar” built into it
where those who feared for their lives ran to take hold.

No longer!

thanks to Your Son’s death on the cross in my behalf
the most fragrant offering of all time.
