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

“Day after day they spoke to him but he refused to comply. Therefore they told Haman about it to see whether Mordecai’s behavior would be tolerated, for he had told them he was a Jew.”
(Esther 3:4)

When the laws of the land conflict with Your Word, Jesus

it’s no contest.

Traditions, customs, police, judges, mayors, governors presidents all lose.

You win.

The only reason I have to pray about it

is to learn from You the wisest way to proceed.

Get flexible, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…after all, he is my older brother…”
(1 Kings 2:22)

There is a pecking order, isn’t there, Jesus?

Horses have it.
So do cats and dogs.

Human beings do, too.

Although David appointed Solomon to be his successor

Solomon’s older brother had other ideas –
with tradition on his side.

But You’ve never been bound by tradition, have You, Father?

Is there any area in my life I might be taking for granted
that You intend to turn totally upside-down?

Pray this Lazaroo with sobered clarity:

“…his religion is worthless.”
(James 1:26)

What a blow that would be, Jesus!

To spend a lifetime thinking my religion is doing me good
that You’re pleased enough with me to take me to heaven

then find out that I’ve wasted my time and energy
that all my religious behavior and cherished beliefs

were dead wrong.

Which is why I’m not depending on my ideas, traditions and customs.

My only hope – and I know it to the bone –

is You.
