Why Do You Get Jealous? Someone received attention but you didnt? Someone was given a promotion you believe you earned? Another person enjoys a happy life and yours is less than perfect? Your spouse is possibly having an affair? Nu. 5:11ff

Contrasting Jealousies Fleshly Jealousy Looks inward – selfishly. Cp. 1 Sam. 18:1-9 Divine Jealousy Looks outward – selflessly. Cp. 2 Cor. 11:1-4

God Is Jealous He wants nothing to be BEFORE HIM. Exo. 20:5 He wants to be glorified in all things. Lev. 10:1-3; Jn. 15:8 He wants His will – not yours – to be done. Cp. Gal. 2:20; Rom. 6 (v. 6) NOTE: If you think that sounds selfish (not selfless), consider the following…

Reasons God Is Jealous For You! His FULL DESIRE is to have fellowship with His crowning creation. Rom. 8:31-39 So, from the beginning He sovereignly reveals His will to accomplish His desire. Eph. 3:8-11 The pinnacle of this fellowship is seen through selflessness! 1 Jn. 3:16; Phil. 2:5ff He doesnt want Satan taking away that which belongs to Him!

Are You Jealous for Him? The apostle was for God and his brothers and sisters in Christ. 2 Cor. 11:2 Are you? Matt. 22:37
