Examine yourself, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Woe to him who…makes himself wealthy by extortion!”
(Habakkuk 2:6)

Extortion, Jesus

threatening to harm someone
unless they pay what I demand.

You hate that.

So would I…
if it were done to me.

But there’s more than one way to threaten someone

nor does everything I want have to do with money.

At heart, the sin of extortion is the belief that I have to threaten to harm others

instead of trusting You to provide what I need.

Pray this Lazaroo with new clarity:

“When my life was ebbing away, I remembered you, LORD…”
(Jonah 2:7)

That’s a good time to remember You, Jesus.

How often have I called out to You in desperation
when I was going under for the third time?

But it’s not the best time to remember You, is it?

The preferred time to get close to You
to put You first in all I do

is before I make the horrendous decisions

that threaten to destroy my life.
