Pray this Lazaroo in sober reflection:

“Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.”
(James 3:1)

There’s a simple reason for this, isn’t there, Jesus?

Those to whom You give the holy honor of teaching Your Word

owe You and those they teach

the privilege of seeing someone
who practices what they teach.

True, no teacher will ever do everything perfectly

but that had blessed well be their daily goal.

Pray this Lazaroo with re-burning zeal:

“Anyone who…does not continue in the teaching of Christ…
(2 John 1:9)

I gave my life to You, Jesus

because You gave Your life for me.

I was determined to obey You from that moment forward.

But I haven’t.
I’ve sinned.
A lot.

I’ve confessed my sins.

I’ve forsaken them.

Only to pick them back up again.

I have no excuse – but You see it, LORD:

within the heart of my being
is a desire to continue in Your teaching.

Forgive me!
Fill me!
Save me!

Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted determination:

“Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding. I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teaching.”
(Proverbs 4:1-2)

That’s the prayer of every Godly parent, Jesus!

But do the children listen?
Do they take it to heart?

Do they remember it?
Do they put it into practice?

No parent can make a child respond to their hard-earned wisdom, no matter how hard they try.

But as Your child

that’s exactly what I’m determined to do.

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned…”
(Titus 2:7-8)

That’s a tall order, Jesus!

It’s one thing to teach with integrity, seriousness and soundness of speech

but quite another thing to do all that in a way
that’s impossible to condemn.

There’s always someone out there eager to condemn.

but with Your help and protection

I’ll do my best!

Be on your guard! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Their teaching will spread like gangrene.”
(2 Timothy 2:17)

False teaching is so like gangrene it’s scary, Jesus

bringing spiritual death to all who embrace it.

Gangrene occurs when there is no blood flow to arms, legs, toes and fingers

just as false teachers deny the saving power
of Your blood shed for us on the cross.

Muscles and internal organs can die from spreading infection

in the same way the sins promoted by the false teacher
destroys their followers from the inside.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“The Jews then responded to him, ‘What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.’”
(John 2:18-19)

You Are God, Jesus.

You proved it by Your teaching and miracles.

But when You were publicly executed and buried –

then rose from the dead exactly as You promised?
More than 500 witnesses?

That seals the deal.
Case closed.

Pray this Lazaroo in broken repentance:

“‘If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him and marries another man, should he return to her again? Would not the land be completely defiled? But you have lived as a prostitute with many lovers—would you now return to me?’ declares the Lord.”
(Jeremiah 3:1)

Once again, You’re teaching on two levels, Jesus –

on marriage
on my relationship with You.

But the answer to Your question is yes!

If I have strayed

I will return to You forever – with all my heart!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“In your teaching show…soundness of speech…”
(Titus 2:7-8)

You’re not talking about the rules of grammar, are You, Jesus?

You’re telling me not to present speculation as fact.
You’re telling me to be kind toward others.
You’re telling me to speak with humility.
You’re telling me to stick to the truth.

I may not be the best speaker in the world.

What I have to say may not always be interesting.

But with Your help
I can do that.

They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”
(Acts 2:40-42)

To this very day, Jesus…

those who’ve accepted Your message continue to be baptized.

May we, too, devote ourselves

to the breaking of bread
and to prayer!

Pray this Lazaroo with true understanding:

“In your teaching show…seriousness…”
(Titus 2:7)

Yes, Jesus! Absolutely.

A good bit of teaching Your Word has to show seriousness.

This isn’t just life or death.
It’s eternal life or death!

The reality of heaven and hell is as serious as it gets.

But a teacher can use serious humor to make a point
as You did so many times in Your teaching.

A sourpuss who can’t crack a smile
and who has no sense of humor

will find it very hard
to hold their listeners’ attention.
