Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I came to the exiles who lived at Tel Aviv near the Kebar River. And there, where they were living, I sat among them for seven days—overwhelmed.”
(Ezekiel 3:15)

That’s how bad Ezekiel’s countrymen had become, Jesus.

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing!

Your people doing detestable things – things forbidden in Your Law.
Most of all – unthinkably! – Your people worshiping other gods.

Once they forsook you
the vile behavior soon followed.

O Jesus!

Keep me close to You!

Pray this Lazaroo with redoubled intention:

“…when the judge died, the people returned to…following other gods and serving and worshiping them. They refused to give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.”
(Judges 2:19)

What an incentive to install Godly leaders, Jesus…

and what an indictment against us
for so desperately needing them.

Why do we stray without someone standing over us

constantly reminding us of what we need to do
taking strong, loving action when we disobey?

Sigh. It is what it is.

Give us great leaders!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Indeed, on every high hill and under every spreading tree you lay down as a prostitute.”
(Jeremiah 2:20)

Strong words, Jesus.

Hard to hear.
But even worse, hard for You to see:

Your people worshiping other gods
instead of remaining faithful to You.

That’s exactly how You view me

every time I put someone or something
ahead of obedience to You:

as a prostitute.

Help, LORD!

That’s not what I want You to see when You look at me.
