Monday, December 4, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“Then the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times over, ‘Wherever you turn, they will attack us.’ Therefore I stationed some of the people behind the lowest points of the wall at the exposed places, posting them by families, with their swords, spears and bows.”
(Nehemiah 4:12-13)

When I’m warned, Jesus

I have to respond.

But only You know whether the threat is real.

If it is, only You know the proper response.

Lead me, Holy Spirit!

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:2)

Sometimes these people seemingly pop up out of nowhere, Jesus.

But more times than not
I had a hand in bringing them into my life.

Of course, I didn’t know at the time
how much trouble they’d be.

But You did.

You’ve warned me repeatedly
about what happens
when I consort with the wrong people.

I don’t deserve deliverance from their clutches.

But in Your loving mercy
I’m begging You to do exactly that.

Be duly warned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“If anyone sins and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, even though they do not know it, they are guilty and will be held responsible. They are to bring to the priest as a guilt offering a ram from the flock, one without defect and of the proper value…and they will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 5:17-18)

This answers one of my questions, Jesus:

Ignorance of Your Law is no excuse.

If I refuse to study Your Word to learn Your commands

I will pay the consequences.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, ‘Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.’ Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. 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 Your teaching
to fellowship
to the breaking of bread
and to prayer!

Never forget! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…Shimei stayed in Jerusalem for a long time. But three years later, two of Shimei’s slaves ran off…At this, he saddled his donkey and went…in search of his slaves.”
(1 Kings 2:38-40)

Solomon warned Shimei not to leave the city, Jesus!

After three years, the warning had faded in his mind…

but not in Solomon’s.

Shimei’s faded memory cost him his life.

It doesn’t matter how long ago You tell me something, does it, Father?

Your Word still stands.

May God give you a wonderful Christmas, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.”
(Ezekiel 3:21)

Sometimes I get tired of warning people who don’t want to hear it, Jesus!

I become the bad guy.
It makes them angry.

But ultimately, it’s not about preserving my relationship with them, is it?

On that Day

my relationship with You
is the only one that matters.

Pray this Lazaroo with Spirit-led caution:

“Again Abner warned Asahel…”
(2 Samuel 2:22)

The basic problem with warnings, Jesus…

is I never know when it’s my last.

Nothing happened to Asahel after Abner’s first warning

so Asahel kept right on chasing him.

Little did he know this warning was it.

When he ignored it, Abner killed him.
Boom. Right then. Right there.

Am I on my last warning in any area, Father?

There’s no way for me to know, is there?

I’d better stop now.

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But Asahel would not stop…”
(2 Samuel 2:21)

Asahel was racing toward certain death, Jesus.

Abner warned him again and again.

Asahel wouldn’t listen
wouldn’t stop.

So he died.
Totally, his own fault.

You will only warn me so many times, Holy Spirit.

If I don’t stop, the consequences are on me.

Maybe it’s to make better choices.
Maybe it’s to end destructive friendships.
Maybe it’s to stop saying something.
Maybe it’s to change my behavior.

Help me listen!

Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Does a bird swoop down to a trap on the ground when no bait is there?”
(Amos 3:5)

No, Jesus.

Birds aren’t that stupid.

But we Your people sometimes are.

Even though You’ve warned us repeatedly of the dangers of sin
we keep swooping down into Satan’s traps.

Your Word is full of advice, cautions, horrific accounts

but it’s as though we ignore all the signs:

STOP!
DANGER!
BRIDGE OUT!

because we think we know better than do You.

Pray this Lazaroo in repentant devotion:

“Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning…”
(Mark 1:43)

You’ve given me a few of those, Jesus.

Sometimes through the events of my life.
Sometimes through one of Your people.
Most often directly through Your Word.

The thing is…

I haven’t always heeded them!

O God!
Why?

I know who You are.
I know You love me beyond measure.

I have no excuse.

All I have is a determination to turn it around

while I can.
