Pray this Lazaroo in the fear of God:

“‘Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go!’ So they went out and began killing throughout the city. While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell facedown, crying out, ‘Alas, Sovereign Lord! Are you going to destroy the entire remnant of Israel in this outpouring of your wrath on Jerusalem?’”
(Ezekiel 9:7-8)

No, Jesus.

You didn’t destroy them all.

But You do know whom to destroy and whom to spare.

I don’t deserve it –

but thank You for sparing me

right down to this very moment.

Pray this Lazaroo with eyes-wide-open love:

“I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of the Lord’s wrath. He has driven me away and made me walk in darkness rather than light; indeed, he has turned his hand against me again and again, all day long.”
(Lamentations 3:1-3)

Jeremiah didn’t sugarcoat it, Jesus.

He knew You had the power to stop the attacks against him.

You’re my Protector, too.

When bad things happen to me
it’s Your choice to cause or allow them…

because You know what’s best.

Take heed, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When they celebrate their New Moon feasts, he will devour their fields. Ephraim will be laid waste on the day of reckoning. Among the tribes of Israel I proclaim what is certain. Judah’s leaders are like those who move boundary stones. I will pour out my wrath on them like a flood of water.”
(Hosea 5:7, 9-10)

If I persist in disobeying You, Jesus

the day will come when You quit telling me what to do

and start telling me
what You’re going to do.

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“…it is written: ‘So that you may be proved right when you speak and prevail when you judge.’ But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world?”
(Romans 3:4-6)

You are Perfect, Righteous and Just, Jesus.

In our flawed, unrighteous, injustice

how dare we impugn Your judgments?

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate dedication:

“…you have the brazen look of a prostitute; you refuse to blush with shame. Have you not just called to me: ‘‘My Father, my friend from my youth, will you always be angry? Will your wrath continue forever?’ This is how you talk, but you do all the evil you can.”
(Jeremiah 3:3-5)

You never were much for empty words, were You, Jesus?

Weren’t then
aren’t now.

Nor am I.

I’ve heard too many broken promises
to make any to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise, let us go against her for battle…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

You’re stirring up the nations against us, Jesus?

No. Not us.
Against our pride-filled, sinning brothers.

I’m sorry for them…

but thankful that we’re not the ones under Your wrath.

Except…this is a warning, isn’t it?

If you’re taking our brothers to the woodshed
we’ll be next –

if we follow their example of disobedience.

Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then the Lord was jealous for his land…”
(Joel 2:18)

“Then,” Jesus?

When?

What turns Your heart toward us, though we have sinned

though we deserve nothing but wrath?

What makes You jealous for this land we have so defiled by our disobedience?

It’s when we cry out to You in repentance, isn’t it –

begging for Your mercy –
which by very definition we don’t deserve.

It’s when we call on You to honor Your great Name we have so besmirched.

Take warning! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He has swallowed up all her palaces and destroyed her strongholds. He has multiplied mourning and lamentation for Daughter Judah. He has laid waste his dwelling like a garden; he has destroyed his place of meeting. The Lord has made Zion forget her appointed festivals and her Sabbaths; in his fierce anger he has spurned both king and priest.”
(Lamentations 2:5-6)

You’re longsuffering, Jesus.

But may I never persist in my sin

because I’m terrified to incur Your wrath!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.”
(Romans 2:7-8)

Persistence is the key, isn’t it, Jesus?

An occasional good or bad deed doesn’t tell the whole story.

What I do or don’t do doesn’t save me.

But my behavior over time reveals

whether or not I’m saved.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“The wrath of God has come upon them at last.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:16)

I’m not asking You to punish anyone, Jesus!

Not even those who’ve hurt me the most.

The reason is simple:

I’ve sinned against You so many times.
You’ve forgiven and blessed me times beyond counting.

How dare I ask You to treat them worse
than in Your mercy You’ve treated me?

But for those who deliberately flaunt You without sorrow or regret?

Their day is coming.
