Pray this Lazaroo in submissive awe:

“Now, fellow Israelites, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders. But this is how God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, saying that his Messiah would suffer.”
(Acts 3:17-18)

We can’t seem to get our heads around this, Jesus…

how You turn our worst behavior
into the fulfillment of Your Purposes for all time.

Whether we zig or zag makes no difference to You.

In Your Sovereignty,

Your will

will be done!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Cain said to the Lord, ‘My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.’ But the Lord said to him, ‘Not so; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.’”
(Genesis 4:13-15)

You are stunningly good to the worst of us, Jesus!

…which explains why You are so good to me.

Aim higher, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone…”
(3 John 1:12)

That’s rare, Jesus.

Some people are highly regarded by most
but to have everyone singing their praises?

Even those who live with them
see them at their worst?

Amazing. Jaw dropping.
Almost unprecedented.

Not even You were well spoken of by everyone.

Because of Your power and purity
many hated You, rejected You
turned against You.

I’d like to be a Demetrius

but I’d rather be hated along with You.

Shudder as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Woe to the city of blood, full of lies…”
(Nahum 3:1)

Which is worse, Jesus –

a city full of blood
or a city full of lies?

They’re both horrible…

but the worst has to be a city full of lies.

Even when there’s blood

if people tell the truth
you know where you stand.

But with lies

you know nothing.

You don’t know which end is up
who to trust – if anyone.

Great God Almighty!

Make me a person of truth!

Please spare me

from those whose mouths
are full of lies.

Pray this Lazaroo with ironfisted determination!

“My people, your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. The Lord takes his place in court; he rises to judge the people. The Lord enters into judgment against the elders and leaders of his people…”
(Isaiah 3:12-14)

This is the worst, Jesus!

When the people You’ve called and equipped to lead
turn their backs on You

what are the rest of us to do?

Though our leaders forsake You

may we always and forever remain true!
