James 4:8-11 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          8Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
          9Grieve, mourn, and weep. Turn your laughter to mourning, and your joy to gloom.
          10Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.

¹¹Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. And if you judge the law, you are not a practitioner of the law, but a judge of it.

— James 4:8-11
