There is a war raging between our self-indulgent nature and God. That war sets us at enmity with our brother, shuts the window of heaven and makes us Friends of the world .... and enemies of God. What can we do to avoid this and be friends of God?

Ask And Seek The Right Thing! Knock At The Right Door! Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Jul 22, 2013

The standard message on this passage is, we need to ask, and when we ask God ...read more
