If you want to get out of the blessings of God, let envy enter into your spirit. Envy will attack you from behind. It lives disguised, never quite showing its face, surfacing instead as a critical comment, the guilty pleasure at a friend's challenges or a private act.
When envy is particularly well hidden, we may not even be able to place a name on it. We just find that certain people irritate us or "make" us feel we beneath them in areas of our lives.
Envy can be challenging to look at and challenging to admit. So, ask God to reveal envy if it is in you - if it is hidden in you! This way it won't erupt and cause a broken partnership or a family quarrel.
But, if you want to keep it hidden, it will be challenging to deal with. Envy can also seem like resentment, perhaps, or a sense of dissatisfaction with your life, your economic status, or your own family.
For many people, envy simply merges with an overall feeling of not being quite good enough. And, we know this is not how God looks at us! We are the apple of His eye. Don't believe the lie and don't allow envy to take hold of your spirit. In God, there is nothing to envy.
Much love,
Joseph
