Week 9: Desires and Motives (James 4:1-10)

Conflict Galatians 5:17 (NLT) The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions.

Conflict Desires (that battle within) You want something but don’t get it The natural heart of man is never content Kill and covet!

Conflict Our prayer life Prayerlessness Praying with wrong motives selfish prayer concerned with pleasures The purpose of prayer is not to persuade a reluctant God to do our bidding; it is to align our will with His

Conflict Friendship with the world Spiritual adultery Ezekiel 16:32 “You adulterous wife! You prefer strangers to your own husband!” Polarizing! God is jealous The Spirit will convict the Christian who lives in compromise

The Solutions for Conflict More grace! By “grace” we are saved and by “more grace” we are sustained Submit and draw near to God He promises to draw near to us!

The Solutions for Conflict Resist the devil He promises the devil will flee from us! Matthew 4:10-11 10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’” 11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.

The Solutions for Conflict Resist the devil He promises the devil will flee from us! Never try to withstand the enemy without submission to God Whatever you do, never resist God and submit to the devil

The Solutions for Conflict Deeply felt repentance Inward and outward cleansing Humble yourself (in the sight of the Lord) Humility puts us in a position to receive God will lift you up!
