“For everyone who asks, receives; the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.”
Luke 11: 5-13
Never be afraid to make your desires known to Jesus, but always be passionate, persistent, and fervent in your prayer.
We must ‘ask,’ ‘seek’ and ‘knock’ when we come to Him and, more importantly, we must keep on asking, keep on seeking and keep on knocking, even when it seems that our prayers are not being heard. Know this – God never gets tired of listening to us, His children. He wants us to ASK unashamedly, confident in our belief that He will answer our prayer.
Know this too – God will answer our prayers in a manner that is best for us – according to His Will. Therefore, we must pray for the necessary grace and humility to accept God’s Will for us. “Thy Will be done.”
Be assured that what we obtain through fervent, tireless prayer will always be to the Glory of God and the accomplishment of His Will. His Will is for us to abide in the presence of His Holy Spirit – the absolute best gift!
