Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…these teachers will exploit you…”
(2 Peter 2:3)

That’s not what they’re supposed to do, Jesus

not even teachers who don’t know You
let alone those who claim they do.

Teachers are supposed to dispense information

at the very least enable us to regurgitate it
at best…equip us to lead better, more productive lives

maybe even Godly lives.

So when a teacher sells out to exploit their students?

My guess is:

In Your perfect way and time
You’ll step in.

Pray this Lazaroo in trembling fear:

“When a leader sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden…”
(Leviticus 4:22)

Let me reword the rest of that sentence, Jesus:

“…it’s bad news.”

Good that the leader didn’t mean to do it

bad that the leader didn’t know enough not to.

Being one of Your leaders is such an awesome privilege

and an incredibly fearful responsibility

because so much is at stake.

The only hope that leader has

is to stay deep, daily, moment-by-moment
1on1 with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“I urge…that…prayers…be made for…all those in authority…”
(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

Okay, Father…

I’ll do it.
Because You asked.

I pray for everyone in authority over me –

long-term and short term
those in the present, those in my past:

parents, babysitters, teachers, coaches
trainers, mentors, landlords, bankers
mayors, policemen and women, judges
congressmen and women, presidents
pastors, elders, group leaders, point people

Give them wisdom, favor, blessing, understanding, compassion, courage, empathy, Biblical standards, consciences, humility.

In Jesus’ Name!
