People ask me all the time, "Pastor how come God lets all these bad things happen to me?" Most of the time you can look at these peoples walk with God and find the answer.
The answer to that question is probably verses 4-6.
James 4: 4-10 The Message Bible.
4-6 You’re cheating on God. If all you want is your own way, flirting with the world every chance you get, you end up enemies of God and his way. And do you suppose God doesn’t care? The proverb has it that “he’s a fiercely jealous lover.” And what he gives in love is far better than anything else you’ll find. It’s common knowledge that “God goes against the willful proud; God gives grace to the willing humble.”
So some people might actually ask "How can I change my life?"
Those answers will be found in verses 7-10.
7-10 So let God work his will in you. Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him scamper. Say a quiet yes to God and he’ll be there in no time. Quit dabbling in sin. Purify your inner life. Quit playing the field. Hit bottom, and cry your eyes out. The fun and games are over. Get serious, really serious. Get down on your knees before the Master; it’s the only way you’ll get on your feet.
I Dare you to get into the Word, Then I Dare You To Believe that the Word Can and Will make you FREE !!!
