Have you had your JOY JUICE today? In Matthew 7: 7 we find the words of Jesus: “Ask
and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be
opened to you”.
As we pray, we are given these
simply guidelines to ASK, SEEK and KNOCK.
And then verse 8 gives us an unconditional promise: “For
everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door
will be opened.”
Doesn’t it
fill your heart with JOY to know that when you ask, seek and knock, God hears
your prayer? These verses are promises
to the Christian. But we must remember that he may not always answer the way we
think He should. Sometimes he does say
“Yes”; other times he says “NO” or “Not yet”.
What about those prayers that you and I have prayed for YEARS and still
have do not have an answer? That is when He says: “Trust Me”! Isaiah 55:8-9
reminds us why we can trust:
8 “For my thoughts are not
your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. 9 For as the
heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my
thoughts than your thoughts.”
We can trust that God is always going to
answer our prayers in HIS best way! And that should fill us with peace and
assurance…..blessed assurance, packed full of JOY!
Drink your Joy Juice
faithfully! Trust that God will answer your prayers in His perfect and
joy-filled way!
