Ask remaining within faith

Ask remaining within faith – James 1:1-8

James 1:1-8

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

² My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall (fall as to be surrounded) into divers temptations (trails);

³ Knowing this, that the trying (testing) of your faith (your tested faith) worketh (effects or achieves) patience (a patient enduring).

⁴ But let patience (a patient enduring) have her perfect (full, complete) work, that ye may be perfect and entire (whole in every part), wanting (lacking) (in) nothing.

⁵ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of (from) God, that giveth to all men liberally (in simplicity, with a readiness of heart, without a thought behind, freely), and upbraideth (chide, to scold or reprove) not; and it shall be given him.

⁶ But let him ask in (remanning within) faith, (in) nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

⁷ For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

⁸ A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
