Episode Summary:In this episode, we explore how internal struggles like jealousy, selfish ambition, and worldly desires create distance between us and God, leading to spiritual adultery. We discuss how our prayers can become empty when driven by wrong motives, and the importance of returning to God—our first love—seeking His heart rather than the fleeting things of this world. Through His grace, it's never too late to come back home.Scripture: "What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”?"Connect:Thanks for taking the time to listen to Talk Scripture.
