He said, “Ask, and it shall be given you;” Matthew 7:7. But how do you know that you qualify for this? Who do you belong to? If you belong to Jesus, the One who spoke those words, you qualify. “But I failed the other day so maybe it isn’t for me after all.” But if you confess your failure and turn away from wrong doing, you are clear! Forgiven is a word is hard to understand. When you are forgiven, you are free and there is no wall between you and the forgiver, Jesus Christ.
How often is the Lord waiting for us to come to him with our need? He is not stingy. We see that in the feeding of the five thousand with five loaves and two fish. He made sure they had enough, with leftovers.
Our Father in Heaven knows how to give good things to those that ask him (Matthew 7:11). Often the things we need the most, money cannot buy.
If Jesus were to suddenly stand before you in a physical appearance and would say to you, “Ask, and it shall be given you” , what would you ask Him for? The truth is, you don’t have to wait on such an appearance because His Word is real and is for you today. Go ahead and ask and give Him the opportunity to do what you can’t. He will be honored if you do.
