|Tiago 4:1| Where do these wars and battles between yourselves first start? Is it not precisely in the desires fighting inside your own selves?
-
|Tiago 4:2| You want something and you lack it; so you kill. You have an ambition that you cannot satisfy; so you fight to get your way by force. It is because you do not pray that you do not receive;
-
|Tiago 4:3| when you do pray and do not receive, it is because you prayed wrongly, wanting to indulge your passions.
-
|Tiago 4:4| Adulterers! Do you not realise that love for the world is hatred for God? Anyone who chooses the world for a friend is constituted an enemy of God.
-

-
|Tiago 4:6| But he has given us an even greater grace, as scripture says: God opposes the proud but he accords his favour to the humble.
-
|Tiago 4:7| Give in to God, then; resist the devil, and he will run away from you.
-
|Tiago 4:8| The nearer you go to God, the nearer God will come to you. Clean your hands, you sinners, and clear your minds, you waverers.
-
|Tiago 4:9| Appreciate your wretchedness, and weep for it in misery. Your laughter must be turned to grief, your happiness to gloom.
-
|Tiago 4:10| Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will lift you up.
