James 4:1-3 addresses conflicts and desires within the Christian community. The passage starts with James asking why there are fights and quarrels among them, attributing it to their desires for pleasure that wage war within themselves. He highlights that these desires lead them to covet and not obtain what they want, leading to conflict and even murder. James points out that they don't have because they don't ask God or they ask with wrong motives, intending to spend what they get on their own pleasures. In essence, James is cautioning against selfish desires and urges the readers to seek God's will and align their desires with it to find true fulfillment.
'What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures' (James 4.1-3, NIV)
