Today’s Scripture: And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Matthew 7:24 ESV
If you could ask for anything, what would it be? Just fifteen verses earlier in Matthew 7:8 Jesus said EVERYONE who asks receives. EVERYONE includes you and me, right?
Jesus continues telling us God wants to give us good things. We just need to ask. If we seek we will find; if we knock it will be opened. Do we ask for things that are leading us through the narrow gate? Do we ask for things that allow us to build our lives on solid rock?
I first affirmed this morning “I ask to know Jesus” and I do. Yet, His knowing is super spiritually beyond my knowing and its limitations. Lord, Jesus, I am asking You to know me and for me to know You and Your way. Thank You for Your promise to give us Your way to life, if we ask.
What are you asking for?
Today’s Prayer: LORD Jesus, I ask You to know me. You know me better than I. I ask to know Your way. I ask You to teach me to seek what You desire. I ask You to show me where to knock. Lord, please know me and grant me the fullness of knowing You. In Your mighty name I pray. Amen
