Draw Near To God (James 4:8-10)

8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be miserable and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.James 4:8-10


Today, we continue our journey word by word, verse by verse through the book of James. The Bible is God’s written word to us, so we believe that every word matters and has a bearing on our lives!

James 3:9-12 speaks to the inconsistency of the tongue. The same tongues blesses and curses. This incongruence should not be! James goes on to make use of illustrations from nature to make his point.
