Never get jealous of what others have; praise God for what He has done for them. Sometimes God will bless people WE feel are undeserving. But, instead of getting jealous and wanting what they have, we should praise God for what He's done for them and ourselves.
When the Queen of Sheba met King Solomon, she was not jealous of his riches and wisdom. Instead, she began praising God for what He had done for the King and blessed King Solomon with more gifts. The next day King Solomon gave the Queen many advantages and whatever else the Queen wanted.
Father, thank You for a new day and being in our right minds, and bless those who were called home. Lord, let us not harbor Jealousy in our hearts or want what others have; just praise You for what You have done for them and ourselves. Lord, help us understand that Jealousy will bring disorder in our lives and take our focus off Him. Lord, every time that source of our flesh rises, feel our hearts with gratitude for what You have done for us. So, we can be grateful for how You blessed others. So, Lord, we ask that You uproot Jealousy from our hearts and fill us with gratitude to help us act like children born of the Spirit and not the flesh. In Jesus' name Amen
Amen
