Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“Israel’s arrogance testifies against them; the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble in their sin; Judah also stumbles with them. When they go with their flocks and herds to seek the Lord, they will not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them. They are unfaithful to the Lord; they give birth to illegitimate children.”
(Hosea 5:5-7)

When we keep sinning – especially when we know better, Jesus –

You withdraw from us.

I can’t afford that, LORD!
I need You too desperately.

Please help me stay faithful to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with consistent faith:

“Then the Lord was jealous for his land and took pity on his people. The Lord replied to them: ‘I am sending you grain, new wine and olive oil, enough to satisfy you fully; never again will I make you an object of scorn to the nations.’”
(Joel 2:18-19)

That’s Your heart, Jesus!

When we repent, You bless us!

But when we return to our wicked ways – as Your people did –

You reluctantly withdraw Your blessings

knowing only then will we return to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful wisdom:

“…he withdrew…”
(Matthew 2:22)

There’s a time for that, isn’t there, Jesus?

in spite of the fact that I prefer to go forward.

It makes me feel like I’m accomplishing something
like I’m making progress.

But sometimes I venture into waters too deep

onto land whose “No Trespassing!” signs I’ve overlooked.

It’s not that You can’t enable me to do absolutely anything.

It’s that there’s a right time for everything

including a time – as Joseph discovered –

to withdraw.
