When You Just Don't Know
What do you do when you don't know what to do? Trials often leave us confused and unable to make sense of what is happening. James 1 shows that those are the very moments God uses to bring us to the source of true wisdom.
Key Verse: "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." - James 1:5 (KJV)
James tells believers to count it all joy when they fall into trials, because trials show us we are not as wise as we think and drive us to God's throne. In this message from our series on James, Pastor Marc Williamson shows that God gives wisdom generously to all who ask, and that He does not scold those who come to Him for help, even when the trouble is of their own making. The only condition is that we ask in faith, without wavering.
Don't turn to just anyone in a crisis. Turn to God first and ask Him in faith, trusting that He is good and that He will give what He has promised.
