Don't give strife room in your heart

“Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.”  
James 3:13-15(KJV)

When you have bitterness and envying in your heart, it will open your heart to the wrong kind of wisdom. There are three words used to describe the wrong kind of wisdom in our opening scripture. This wrong kind of wisdom is; earthly, sensual and devilish. So, when you have bitterness, envying and strife in your heart, demonic activity is released into your life.

Therefore, if you don't want to see demonic activity in your life, stay away from strife and do not give it any place in your heart. Strife is satan's bait to get you into bitterness and quarrels.

Don't listen to those voices that tell you to avenge yourself because of what someone has done to you. Wives don't listen to those voices that tell you not to cook for your husband because of something he said or did, and husbands don't listen to those voices that tell you not to give money to your wife so that she can suffer.

Don't do that because that is the bait of satan to bring bitterness and quarrels into your home.

James 3:16 says, “For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”  Therefore, if you are having confusion, quarrels and commotion in your home, office, church, etc. It is because there is envying and strife among you, so, if you will deal with envy and strife all these confusions and quarreling will not be there.

Satan has access into any home where there is strife. Therefore, don't give place to strife in your heart because if you do, you are giving the devil access into your life.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I pray that you remove from my life every one that has been assigned by satan to stir up strife and bring confusion, quarrels and commotion in my home, office, church, and every area of my life. In Jesus Name. Amen.
