Jealousy Monster

For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind. JAMES 3:16

Have you ever been jealous? The answer of course for all living breathing people is no doubt yes. It is hard to not have this earthly human emotion try to dominate and mess up your life and your relationships. 

Jealousy is NOT a fruit of the spirit and the enemy uses it to divide people. Jealousy causes comparison which also is not good. If you suffer from jealousy of any sort you need to get a grip on it and confess to the Lord and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and not let it control you and destroy relationships or say something you regret.

Galatians 5:25 says “If we live by the Spirit let us keep in step with the spirit.”  Tell God you are thankful for how he has blessed you and be thankful for all you have and each relationship. Leave your jealous spirit at the altar and don’t take it back. 

PRAYER: Jealousy of anything is not from you yet it is so hard to control sometimes. Lord God I am grateful fo all things and relationships in my life. Help me focus on what matters and walk in the Spirit. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
