James begins his letter warning the followers of Jesus were facing persecution and he wanted to give them some guidance, plans to understand and face that suffering, and to handle it well. We know going thru difficult times, struggles, even intense suffering, can be life shattering. Think about a time or two you went thru some really difficult hardships. What were they? What was that experience like? What did you deal with? Looking back, what helped you navigate those difficult times?

Don't look at others as if you are better than them. "Hasn’t God chosen the poor in this world to be rich in faith? Aren’t they the ones who will inherit the Kingdom he promised to those who love him? But you dishonor the poor!" Also how can you say that you have faith without good deeds?

The principle theme in this chapter is prayer. Prayer is praise and petition. Prayer should be our first response, not our last resort. Prayer is not solely communication, but it is also access. Prayer is giving earthly license for heavenly interference. It’s giving in order to gain. Giving up your position, in order to gain access to http://provision.prayer is confession. We confess our weakness . We confess our illness. We confess sinfulness . Confession confirms our dependence on God.
