God listens to prayers - Matthew 7:7-8
I found this in Matthew 7:7-8: To he who asks it shall be given. To he who seeks, shall find. To him who knows, it will be opened. For years, I just looked at this as three closely related thoughts, but I’ve learned that when Jesus sometimes says a thing three times, He is......Read More

Pray with desire - Matthew 7:7-8
I believe that God wants us to prayer with desire. Prayer is a two-way street of communication. You talk to God; God talks to you. So, when you talk, He listens. And he wants to hear what is really on your heart. The more you open up to Him, the closer your relationship with Him can become.......Read More

Pray with persistence – Matthew 7:7-8
I’ve been writing about the Matthew passage; “Ask, it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened.” It looks like Jesus is saying the same thing three times. In a way, He is. All of these exhortations are related to prayer, but they each have......Read More
