JAMES 3: BUT IF YOU HARBOR BITTER ENVY AND SELFISH AMBITION IN YOUR HEARTS, DO NOT BOAST ABOUT IT OR DENY THE TRUTH. 15 SUCH “WISDOM” DOES NOT COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN BUT IS EARTHLY, UNSPIRITUAL, DEMONIC. 16 FOR WHERE YOU HAVE ENVY AND SELFISH AMBITION, THERE YOU FIND DISORDER AND EVERY EVIL PRACTICE.

ENVY RESENTING GOD’S GOODNESS IN OTHER’S LIVES, WHILE IGNORING GOD’S GOODNESS IN OUR OWN LIVES

ENVY IS DESTRUCTIVE IT BREEDS TROUBLE IT MAKES US MISERABLE

PROVERBS 14:30 A HEART AT PEACE GIVES LIFE TO THE BODY, BUT ENVY ROTS THE BONES.

NOT COMPARING

CELEBRATING GOD’S GOODNESS TO OTHERS I Samuel 23:17, he said to his friend, “David don’t be afraid. My father, Saul, will not lay a hand on you. You will be king over Israel, and I will be second to you…

EMBRACING GOD’S GOODNESS FOR YOU Ecclesiates 6:9 - Better what the eye sees than the roving of the appetite. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

1 THESSALONIANS 5: ALWAYS BE JOYFUL. 17 KEEP ON PRAYING. 18 NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, ALWAYS BE THANKFUL, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU WHO BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS.
