James 4:11-12
11: Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.
Heavenly Father, I pray that I may become a doer of Your holy law and not fall into the foolish trap of judging it by condemning the actions of others.
Lord, You alone can judge the thoughts of the heart, and I have no right to condemn others through my own self-righteous attitude. Keep me humble before you and help me become an encouragement to my brothers and sisters in Christ and not their accuser.
Keep me from being ‘wise in my own conceit’, or making arbitrary assumptions about the motives of others and above all, teach me to love others as Christ loved me, for in so doing I will honour Your name, as Christ lives in and through me. In His precious name, I pray Amen.
