"What is causing the quarrels and fights among you? Isn’t it because there is a whole army of evil desires within you?You want what you don’t have, so you kill to get it. You long for what others have, and can’t afford it, so you start a fight to take it away from them. And yet the reason you don’t have what you want is that you don’t ask God for it. And even when you do ask you don’t get it because your whole aim is wrong — you want only what will give you pleasure." (James 4: 1-3 TLB)
“God is opposed to the proud and haughty, but[continually] gives [the gift of] grace to the humble [who turn away from self - righteousness].” So submit to [the authority of] God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you." (James 4 : 6-7 AMP)
"Be humble before the Lord, and he will make you great." (James 4: 10 ERV)
