July 1, 2026 Wednesday Sermon

Pastor Randy continues the verse-by-verse study through the Book of James, focusing on James 4:1–6 and the spiritual battles that arise from the world, the flesh, and the devil. This message examines the source of conflict among believers and explains how pride, selfish desires, and spiritual immaturity can hinder a believer's walk with Christ. James reminds us that true saving faith is reflected in humility, submission to God, and a growing desire to seek His will above our own. This message covers: The source of conflicts and quarrels among believers The influence of the world, the flesh, and the devil How pride and selfish ambition create division The danger of coveting and pursuing personal desires Why spiritual maturity produces humility and peace Pastor Randy also discusses: The importance of praying according to God's will What James means by "you ask and do not receive" The difference between self-centered prayers and God-centered prayers Trusting God's sovereignty when prayers are answered differently than expected Seeking God's wisdom rather than personal gain Throughout the message, Pastor Randy encourages believers to examine their motives, pursue spiritual growth, and rest in the confidence that God's wisdom and sovereignty are always greater than our own understanding. ============= Connect with us: Website: https://www.newhopeduncan.com Facebook:   / newhopeduncan   Instagram:   / newhopeduncan
