A Jealous God?

"For the Lord, whose name is jealous, is a jealous God."—Exodus 34:14.

What do you think the scripture means when they say that the Holy Spirit, whom God has placed within us, jealously longs for us to be faithful?(James 4;5 NLT)

my thoughts...

• God has given me the Holy Spirit to live inside me. 

• The Holy Spirit can not co-exist with evil. 

• If my heart harbors evil there will not be room for His Holiness. 

• The Holy Spirit longs to fully fill my heart. He longs with jealousy.... a yearning, consuming jealousy, to be given access to every compartment of my heart mind and soul. 100%. 

• He won't share this space with evil-- indeed He cannot. 

• He cannot abide in the presence of evil.

I must humble myself before God; admit my full need of Him...
as it says in James, humble yourself before the Lord, draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. When I bow down before Him and admit my dependance on Him, He will lift me up and give me honor.

Humble and Honor seem like direct opposites yet if I am humble, I will be honored.
