“Ask ,and it shall be given you;seek,and you shall find;knock,and it shall be opened unto you.”
–Mathew 7:7
This verse teaches us the persistence in prayer. God’s people are to seek daily provision and spiritual blessing. We ask not as a master but as one asks a father. Father on earth has limitations in answering fully. Father in heaven has no such limitations. He is able to answer more than we ask, think or imagine.
But we need to ask boldly, faithfully, and thankfully without doubting. We ask for our need seek for His wisdom and knock for opportunities.. We need to ask with gratitude and according to His will and His word.
We have to ask in the name of Jesus. When we seek His glory, it pleases the Father’s heart. We have to ask ,seek and knock persistently and diligently.
Lord is willing and able to give that which is perfect and good to those who love Him. He is able to show us what eye has not seen or ear heard or entered our thoughts.
Ask, seek and knock is not an option but a command.. God’s answer is certain for the word “shall” is used not “can ” or “may”. The time of receiving the answer is a decision. Or choice of the Lord. Lords priority is our transformation of our souls and lives.
1 Corinthians 2:9
If we ask our earthly father, he will give us only what is good for us.If we know how to give good gifts to our children,how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him.
Mathew 7:11
We do not have because we fail to ask.our heavenly Father is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end,so He knows everything, what is good for us.only thing is that we need to ask Him.
James4:2-3
