    Do you have to use special words when you talk to your Dad, or wait for a special time, or wear special clothes. Hopefully not. It's the same with God. He wants us to open our hearts and talk to Him often.

    Luke 11:1-13 (v.9-10) Prayer - May the words of my mouth SERMON – Jesus wants us to ask, seek and knock A bible class teacher once asked his group this question: "When you are in trouble, what do you usually do?"

    Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened. Does this mean Jesus is our genie in a bottle? Can I ask for anything I want and Jesus will just give it to me? There's much to understand about what Jesus said here.

    ASK, SEEK, KNOCK Matt. 7:7-12 1) Ask, Seek, Knock (7-8). Here we see three different words three different meanings. I think this illustrates a process; like a chain of events if you will. As the Fourfold gospel commentary puts it, “Asking is a simple use of voice, seeking is a motion of the ...read more
