Every day we must know that God does not like anything that man has friendship with the world, because friendship with the world is enmity against God, God does not like the people who are serving the world.
All that is in the world is vanity of vanity, all that is temporary, but there is only something that lasts and remains forever and it is God and His words that are faithful and true.
You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.
James 4:2
One thing that happens is, that everyone who is outside of God practices injustice does the wrong thing and believes that God is not looking, but many are wrong because God looks at everything from the heavens. He is aware of everything.
People are changing according to the times, right now we can see that there is violence of all kinds, but the Word of God says: that because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
James 4:3
When we ask the Lord let us pray saying that be His will, because sometimes we ask and ask God demanding that God must do things when we want, but when be His will. But God will give us something if it is for good work.
You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.
James 4:4
That is why it is good that, if you are outside of God, come and be reconciled with Him, because everyone who is outside of Him becomes your enemy, as the book of James says: Approach God and do not follow evil paths because they are not pleasing to Him.

THE FRIENDSHIP OF THE WORLD IS ENMITY AGAINST GOD
You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. James 4:4
In the beginning, I mean after the first man and his wife rebelled against his Creator for they wanted to be like Him, they were thrown out of Paradise and became enemies of God.
Through faith in Jesus Christ we have been reconciled and adopted children of God. Really it is a nice and marvellous thing for us who believe.
Our mind and spiritual heart have been changed, purified, we have received in our hearts the Spirit of the Son, crying: Abba Father! So, we love him and long for God as a hart longs for brooks’s water.
We have more o less fellowship with Jesus, but we love him and as David we may say:
“My soul thirsts for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? “. Psalm 42:2
Can we find some people in the World, among unbelievers who may feel, think like you…?
Who of them would cry out: “When shall I come and appear before God? “
It is impossible because they are dead…. Spiritually dead. They are not able to feel like you may feel.
So, they cannot be your friend, my friend, our soul’ s friend.
We are a new creature in Jesus Christ for good works.. as you know.
An adulterous is one who trespasses God’s Word, his Law.. Can we meet with them in their parties? Or agree with them in vanities of this World?
If we are in relationship with them we cannot please the Lord, unless we want to talk with them about the salvation of their soul, the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We must take care and pray to the Lord. Then…
“… what concord has Christ with Belial? or what part has he that believes with an infidel?
2 Corinthians 6:15
So we would be wise men or women if we rather choose to meet with our brothers and be friends of them….
May God bless us in all our decisions. Abba Father!
Amen thank you lord hallelujah I thank God for this conformation it was just last night an incident happened with my step children where my husband told me not to use a container in the kitchen while almost everything they use belongs to me, my daughter was furious I told her am not worried about it and I will not even do or say anything about my stuff they’ve using because they are all vanity and does not last forever, either us or the container will be gone sooner or later, the only thing last forever is what’s in christ. So I god God is speaking and working through this commentator and I thank God am thank him/her for this. God is indeed awesome
I THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR GIVING ME ANOTHER DAYI HAVE BEEN VERY SICK THIS PAST WEEK I THANK JESUS FOR HEALING ME IF MY SICKNESS I LOVE YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST IN YOUR NAME I PRAY AMEN AND AMEN.
In winter sickness is a standard thing, but we must take care of us, sometimes it may be difficult to health it. I know this by experience. The Lord God is always helping us. Thank you Lord for you love us.

Hello Michael,
In winter sickness is a standard thing, but we must take care of us, sometimes it may be difficult to health it. I know this by experience. The Lord God is always helping us. Thank you Lord for you love us.
Thank you Father for Your son Jesus.
