According to James 4, why is it that people don't have what they want?
Answer Because they don't ask God.
James said they do not have because they do not ask God. In addition, when they ask, they also don't received because their motives were wrong and they spend it on guilty pleasure. God isn't a genie granting wishes. He gives what he thinks is best for you.
