Hey last week we talked, not only about prayer, but the forgotten fact that we can pray for anything and receive it…
I really think sometimes we are unbelieving believers…
Matthew 21:22 says…
“And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
This is the problem… we barely pray. Or we pray but don’t ask Gof for specifics ORRR we ask God once and then go back to praying in tongues.
Have we forgotten the parable of the Unrighteousness Judge and the Persistent Widow so easily?!
Jesus was putting us on game… Why else would he bring up the parable… He’s telling you How The Kingdom Works… Ask and it Shall be Given… But Keep Asking, because sometimes God takes time, but each time you’re asking it’s having an effect.
“And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?”
Luke 18:6-8 KJV
Key words: Day & Night
Listen we are on 21 days of Praying for God to move in specific ways… I’m hearing testimonies and seeing God move. I’m getting confirmation on things no one knows I’m praying about but people are telling me God said… and they have “No idea I’m praying about these situations “
One example, I’m praying for more monthly partners and a businessman I have not spoken to in a long time reached out to me and said… God spoke to me to become a partner…
Guys.. you see I haven’t been active on social media lately… my point is this is God… but God is available to move in so many ways… you just need to have enough faith to ask… and keep asking.
I put this in the comments of Mary’s 21 Day prayer post but here are scriptures where God promises to give you what you ask for in prayer. 🤯 This is so simple, but what’s sad is Christians have so little faith that they won’t ask.
They will work 3 jobs, but won’t pray 😬
“And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”
John 14:13-14 KJV
“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.”
John 15:7 KJV
“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.”
John 16:23-24 KJV
“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?”
Matthew 7:7-11 KJV
“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.”
Mark 11:22-25 KJV
“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”
1 John 5:14-15 KJV
“Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
Matthew 21:21-22 KJV
