I John 5:14
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that,
if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us.
Ask anything!
That's what the Bible says...but let's not take it out of context. John is speaking to believers and let's us know that our asking must meet God's standards and not our own. However, we can be confident that God is willing to hear our prayers and that we can ask Him anything boldly at the throne of grace.
What a privilege for us as children of the Living God to know our prayers are heard!
Ask according to HIS will...
Ah...there's the stipulation. If it's not God's will for you to have a million dollars right now then trust me, it's not going to happen! When we are asking we need to ask in obedience to God's commands found in His Word. We cannot connive God into fulfilling our selfish, and sometimes sinful desires. When we want what He wants we can ask confidently!
Walk in the Word today and be blessed!
