Lazaroo – Wednesday, March 17, 2010

Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with bulldog Holy Spirit determination:
“I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.”
(Jude 1:3)
Give me that same feeling, Jesus!
I know I should fight against every argument Satan raises to oppose this amazing faith in which I stand.
But Jude said he “felt” it.
I want to feel it, too.
Fill me with righteous indignation when mere humans challenge You, their Maker!
So grip my heart with throbbing passion for Your cause
that I will pay whatever price necessary to
support Your leaders doing battle on the frontlines
educate myself to defend Your Word, come what may.
I know my faith doesn’t rest on feeling.
Thank God!
But how dare I not feel stirred to the very depths of my being
when heaven and hell
eternal life and death
hang in the balance?!
