James 1 1 James, a bond-servant of God and of
the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes who
are dispersed abroad Greetings. 2 Consider it
all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various
trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your
faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance
have its perfect result, so that you may be
perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. 5 But
if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God,
who gives to all generously and without reproach,
and it will be given to him.

James 1 6 But he must ask in faith without any
doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf
of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7
For that man ought not to expect that he will
receive anything from the Lord, 8 being a
double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 9
But the brother of humble circumstances is to
glory in his high position 10 and the rich man
is to glory in his humiliation, because like
flowering grass he will pass away. 11 For the
sun rises with a scorching wind and withers the
grass and its flower falls off and the beauty of
its appearance is destroyed so too the rich man
in the midst of his pursuits will fade away.

Isaiah 1424 The Lord of hosts has sworn saying,
Surely, just as I have intended so it has
happened, and just as I have planned so it will
stand,
Isaiah 1427 For the Lord of hosts has planned,
and who can frustrate it? And as for His
stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?  
Deut 3239 See now that I, I am He, And there is
no god besides Me It is I who put to death and
give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal,
And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.

Daniel 434-35 But at the end of that period, I,
Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and
my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most
High and praised and honored Him who lives
forever For His dominion is an everlasting
dominion, And His kingdom endures from generation
to generation. 35 All the inhabitants of the
earth are accounted as nothing, But He does
according to His will in the host of heaven And
among the inhabitants of earth And no one can
ward off His hand Or say to Him, What have You
done?

Wisdom means knowing the right thing to do. You
show wisdom when you make the right choice. Faith
means believing in God. You believe what God says
in the Bible, and it shows by the way you act.
You decide what God wants you to do. Doubting
means you arent sure about something. Double-mind
ed means you keep changing your mind. You are not
sure what you think, so you go back and firth
trying to decide.

Daniel 220-23 Daniel said, Let the name of God
be blessed forever and ever, For wisdom and power
belong to Him. 21 It is He who changes the times
and the epochs He removes kings and establishes
kings He gives wisdom to wise men And knowledge
to men of understanding. 22 It is He who reveals
the profound and hidden things He knows what is
in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him.
23 To You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks
and praise, For You have given me wisdom and
power Even now You have made known to me what we
requested of You, For You have made known to us
the kings matter.

Questions on Pg 24-25
Acts 242-46 They were continually devoting
themselves to the apostles teaching and to
fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to
prayer. 43 Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe
and many wonders and signs were taking place
through the apostles. 44 And all those who had
believed were together and had all things in
common 45 and they began selling their property
and possessions and were sharing them with all,
as anyone might have need. 46 Day by day
continuing with one mind in the temple, and
breaking bread from house to house, they were
taking their meals together with gladness and
sincerity of heart,

Acts 433-37 33 And with great power the apostles
were giving testimony to the resurrection of the
Lord Jesus, and abundant grace was upon them all.
34 For there was not a needy person among them,
for all who were owners of land or houses would
sell them and bring the proceeds of the sales 35
and lay them at the apostles feet, and they
would be distributed to each as any had need. 36
Now Joseph, a Levite of Cyprian birth, who was
also called Barnabas by the apostles (which
translated means Son of Encouragement), 37 and
who owned a tract of land, sold it and brought
the money and laid it at the apostles feet.
