Pray this Lazaroo in sober anticipation:

“But who can endure the day of his coming?”
(Malachi 3:2)

I will, Jesus.

So will every person who has put their trust in You.

Nor will we merely endure it.

We will rejoice!
C
elebrate!
Triumph!

But those who’ve rejected You?

Those who refused to make You Lord of their lives?
They won’t be able to endure it.

They’ll weep!
M
ourn!
Wail!

and be thrown into the fiery furnace of burning sulfur
where they will writhe in anguish forever.

Pray this Lazaroo with riveted attention:

“You weep and wail because he no longer looks with favor on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands. You ask, ‘Why?’ It is because the Lord is the witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have been unfaithful to her, though she is your partner, the wife of your marriage covenant.”
(Malachi 2:13-14)

Marriage vows are no joke to You, Jesus.

When we make them
You expect us to keep them.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“You weep and wail because [the LORD] no longer looks with favor on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands.”
(Malachi 2:13)

When You refuse to look with favor on what I’m offering You, Jesus

I need to quit crying and start changing my ways.

Show me, LORD!

Are my tithes and offerings acceptable to You?
Are my attempts to serve You bringing You pleasure?

If not, please make it clear to me:

Where did I take a wrong turn?

Pray this Lazaroo with a pure, humble heart:

“…you flood the LORD’s altar with tears.”
(Malachi 2:13)

There are tears, Jesus…

and then there are tears.

There are those who cry because they’re angry

or because of what they’ve lost.

Some are able to manufacture fake tears

in order to manipulate the tenderhearted and gullible.

Others sob in their punishment because they’ve been caught –

not because they’re sorry they did it.

But when I flood Your altar with tears

may it be in sincere, heartfelt repentance.
