Matthew 7:7-11 ESV
"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock,
and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and
the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be
opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will
give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a
serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give
good things to those who ask him!
Jesus says, prayer involves:
• Boldly asking God to tell his story, for his glory, in and
through us • Earnestly seeking the restored life/purpose Jesus
calls us to
• Relentlessly knocking on the door of fellowship with him
