The Bible describes the parameters so that a person can live in harmony and legal before God and warns us that we should seek His direction in order to live in harmony with what He has created and said about each one of us.
We have beautiful promises that God has decreed in our favor but has also put conditions for us to receive it just as a father who loves a child wants to correct in the right way and orders him rules, so our father also gives us rules to fulfill it. in obedience to his word.
God desires the best for us and has wonderful plans to enforce them on our behalf but there are obstacles that prevent us from reaching his plans because in a way the world absorbs part of the actions that human beings develop in their time and should pay attention as this currently living if he is pleasing God or pleasing the world.
Look what the Bible says about this!
James 4: 4-5
4 !! Oh adulterous souls! Do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity against God? Anyone, then, who wants to be a friend of the world, becomes an enemy of God.
5 Or do you think the Scripture says in vain: The Spirit that he has made dwell in us longs for us jealously?
(RVR1960)
There are many things that separate us from God and we must raise awareness about them to let them go before we separate from God.

The world separates us from God and the word is clear when it warns us to move away from who separates us from God. In this verse quoted James warns us that friendship with the world separates us from God but how is that friendship with the world? The world has many attractions to offer humanity with the intention of separating them from God and it is not some personal friendship that refers to Santiago but to the things in the world that we practice that dishonor God.
When we become friends with the delights that the world offers us we become enemies of God and manifest the Bible says that they are the things of the world in the works of the flesh.
Look what the Bible says!
<Galatians 5: 16-23 New International Version (NIV)
The works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit
16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and do not satisfy the desires of the flesh.
17 For the desire of the flesh is against the Spirit, and that of the Spirit is against the flesh; and they oppose each other, so you don't do what you want.
18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 And manifest are the works of the flesh, which are: adultery, fornication, filthiness, lewdness,
20 idolatry, sorceries, enmity, lawsuits, jealousy, anger, strife, dissension, heresy,
21 envies, homicides, drunkenness, orgies, and things similar to these; about which I admonish you, as I have told you before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,
23 meekness, temperance; Against such things there is no law.(RVR1960)
Sin is a very heavy weight in man who really separates him from God.
Here we really look at the things that separate us from God that are manifest in the flesh so that these things should not turn us away from God but rather we should move away from them in order not to separate ourselves from God.
Actually God never departs from us who take the determination to move away from Him because we are our attitudes and actions that we practice.
¡Remember that God is faithful!
Do not let the things of the world influence your life to separate you from God rather approach and seek the kingdom of God and his justice and all other things will come in addition.
