God's Love Post

What leads to strife (discord and feuds) and how do conflicts

(quarrels and fightings) originate among you? Do they not arise

from your sensual desires that are ever warring in bodily members?

You are jealous and covet (what others have) and your desires that go

unfulfilled; so you become murderers. (To hate is to murder as far as

your hearts are concerned.) You burn with envy and anger and are not

able to obtain (the gratification, the contentment, the happiness that you

seek), so you fight and war. You do not have, because you do not ask God.

(I. John 5.15).

When you do ask, you fail to receive, because you ask with wrong purpose

and evil, selfish motives. Your intention is (when you get what you desire)

to spend it in sensual pleasures.

You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is

hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes

an enemy of God. Or do you think the scripture says without reason that

the spirit He caused to live in us envies intensely? But He gives us more

grace. That is why the scripture says:

“God opposes the proud

but gives grace to the

humble.”

Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Come near to God and He will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners,

and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change

your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the

Lord, and He will lift you up.

(James 4.1-10).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
