Watch Your Heart With Diligence
James 4:1-10
Key Thought: Everything we do flows from what is in our heart.
- Guard your heart against selfish desires (v1-3)
– They cause quarrels and fights.
- Keep your heart true to God (v4-6)
– If you allow your heart to rebel and choose to be a friend of the world, then you are making yourself to be an enemy of God.
- Surrender your heart to God (v7-10)
– As you submit yourself to the authority of God and live a life of purity, he will lift you up.
Reflection:
- Are you envious of someone or coveting something that belongs to another person? Stop. Count your blessings and thank God for what you have.
- What is one area in your life that God is asking you to change? Take concrete steps to do so.
