Faith causes me to ask…
Matthew 6:8-9 (NKJV) - Therfore, do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. In this manner, therefore, pray:
... Our Father in Heaven...
Believing that God exists and that He cares about you will cause you to ask God to supply the needs of your life. James declares that we have not because we ask not and that many times we ask not believing, therefore we don’t receive. Building this foundation of faith, correctly, will give you the confidence to ask in faith and this will result in your receiving for that which you asked.
Jesus says to everyone who knocks, the door will open and to him who seeks—he will find, and to everyone that asks—he will receive. Jesus further states that our Father will listen to our prayers and will grant the requests of our heart.
I trust that the results of the past two weeks’ meditations have left you in a position of confidence that causes you to believe that God exists and that He cares about you. This will allow you to ask—ask for wisdom, direction, provision, and any other help that you might need.
This week I want you to meditate, pray, and consider to have, you must ask, and that it is your faith that gives you the confidence to ask.
James 4:2-3 Matthew 7:7-11 James 1:5-8 Matthew 21:21-22 Hebrews 4:14-16
Blessings,
David
