    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

    What if this verse read, “if you don’t ask you will get only what you can get on your own, if you don’t seek God you will never really find him and if you don’t knock the important doors will ever be opened to you.”

    PRAYER THAT OPENS DOORS "Knocking on Heaven’s Door" Matthew 7:7-11 Let me start with a question this morning. What is the single biggest prayer request you have ever made? What is the biggest answer you have ever asked God for? • Perhaps it was for healing for yourself or for another family ...read more

    The goal of parenting is maturity. For the knock-off version, the goal is happiness. God’s goal is spiritual maturity.

    As a consumer, I say, “how can I make my life most bearable” NOT “how can I build into my kids.” The reason why I was a stickler for getting kids to bed wasn’t necessarily building into them but making my life bearable. The goal of parenting is maturity. For the ...read more
