“Some people wear masks of decency and outward righteousness but live lives of deception believing that...they can live a double life and never be found out. James said, ‘A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.’” James E. Faust, Ensign, Nov 2000, 44–46

Elder Delpert L. Stapley once said:
"God does not upbraid anyone who earnestly and humbly seeks him in faith and prayer for wisdom and guidance. He welcomes it. He is our Heavenly Father. He wants to help us if we will only ask and listen to him; but in asking, one's spirit and attitude must be right to obtain an answer. Faith in God brings peace to the soul and an assurance that he is our Eternal Father into whose presence by prayer we can go for comfort and guidance.

The final verse in the topic quotation gives us the description of the person who is likely to waver. "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." (Jas. 1:8.) To avoid being a double-minded, unstable person, the Lord has designated the path to follow.
"No man," he said, can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." (Matt. 6:24.)
If we lack wisdom and ask with an unwavering faith and with an eye single to the glory of God, we will have a body filled with light that comprehends all things. (See D&C 88:67.) Anything less than this pales into insignificance.

God has not left us alone to face the powers of evil. He has prescribed the way to free us from the stratagems of Satan."

Conference Report, April 1970
