The word for today is - Knock !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Knock !
 
Lord, we are knocking at your door, we need to hear from you, how do we get an answer from you? Read Matthews 7:7-11, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?  Now, we need to know who to ask. The bible tells us in Luke chapter 11, One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.” Now, this was a very wise question! You need to understand some people pray amiss. Read James 4:1-3,From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. You have to understand something it's in Mark 11:21-26,it says, And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. Did you get that? Our Father in Heaven will not answer your prayers, why? Because your heart is not right, YOU MUST HAVE THE SPIRIT OF LOVE!  It's in John 5:19,Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. LOVE,THAT'S THE SPIRIT OF GOD!  Read John 5:30, I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. Wow,thats powerful the will of the Father, not His will, did you get that? So,how do we get this door open? We have to pray to the Father,it's in Luke 11:2-4,And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Get in a place with God and ask Him to forgive you first, then ask for direction, knock and the door will be open to you. Where do you go to have your problems solved and questions answered? The answer is to go to the source of all wisdom, God Himself.Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
