James challenges believers to abandon arrogant self-confidence and instead submit their plans to God's will. He rebukes those who boast about future business ventures without considering God's sovereignty, reminding us that life is brief—like a mist. We are called to live with humility, ignoring God's will is not just careless—it's sinful. James delivers a warning to the rich who hoard wealth and exploit workers. Their luxury is short-lived, and their injustice cries out to God. James paints a sobering picture of judgment for those who pursue riches at the expense of righteousness. Zwai calls us to live humbly, depend on God for our plans, and use our resources justly. Life is fleeting, and true security is found not in wealth or control, but in faithfulness to God.
