But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. Pro 2:3-6Jhn 15:7Jer 29:12-13Pro 3:5-71Jn 5:14-152Ch 1:10Mat 7:7-11Jas 3:17 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. Mat 21:21-22Heb 11:6Mrk 11:22-24Eph 4:14Heb 10:23Heb 13:91Ti 2:82Pe 2:17 For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord.

Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position; Jer 9:23-24Jas 2:5-6Pro 19:12Co 6:10Psa 113:7-8Psa 62:9Rev 2:9Luk 1:52 and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away. 1Pe 1:241Jn 2:17Job 14:21Ti 6:17Mat 5:3Psa 103:15Isa 40:6Jas 4:14 For the sun arises with the scorching wind and withers the grass; and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits. Isa 40:7-8Psa 37:35-36Luk 16:19-25Mrk 4:6Jas 5:1-7Psa 49:6-14Luk 12:16-21Mat 13:6

Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. Jas 1:12Hab 2:12-13Rom 9:19-20Gen 3:12Jas 1:2Isa 63:17 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed. Mrk 7:21-22Eph 4:22Mat 15:18Heb 3:13Pro 4:23Rom 7:13Jas 4:1-2Mat 5:28 Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death. Psa 7:14Job 15:35Rom 5:12-21Gen 2:17Isa 59:4Gen 3:6Rom 6:21-23Mic 2:1-3 Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers. Gal 6:7Jas 1:19Col 2:8Col 2:4Heb 13:1Php 2:121Co 6:92Ti 2:18 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow. Jhn 3:27Mat 7:11Heb 13:8Jhn 8:12Num 23:19Psa 84:111Jn 1:5Pro 2:6 Of his own will he gave birth to us by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger; Pro 17:27Pro 21:23Pro 14:29Pro 10:19Pro 18:13Pro 13:3Eph 4:26Pro 16:32 for the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God. 2Ti 2:24-25Eph 4:26Jas 3:17-18Num 20:11-12 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 3 Eph 4:221Pe 2:11Eph 1:13Jhn 6:63Psa 25:9Col 3:5-81Pe 2:1Heb 12:1
But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves. Rom 2:13Luk 6:46-48Jhn 13:17Jas 4:171Jn 2:3Luk 11:28Jas 2:14-20Mat 12:50 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror; Mat 7:26-27Jas 2:14-26Ezk 33:31-32Luk 6:47Jer 44:16Luk 6:7 for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 2Pe 3:11Luk 1:66Luk 7:391Th 1:5Jdg 8:18Mat 8:27 But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues, not being a hearer who forgets but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.

If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn’t bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is worthless.
