Sermon Title: The War Within You
Text: James 4:1-12
Notes:
Godliness = God is at the center of your heart, your primary motivation.
Worldliness = God is marginalized and something else is your primary motivation.
- Unanswered prayer is a sign of wordiness in your heart.
- God is not jealous ABOUT you- He’s jealous FOR you.
“His jealousy does not from fear or weakness but from a holy indignation at having his honor and power and mercy scorned by the faithlessness of a fickle spouse.” - John Piper
How To Win the Battle Between Worldliness and Godliness:
- Submit to God
Resist the devil
Pursue God
Get serious about sin - Humble Yourself
- Redeem your words
