Pray with Hope and Faith – Matthew 7:7-11
Scripture
7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11 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!
Description
Jesus says in the next part of the sermon on the mount that if sinful parents know how to give good gifts, how much more does your Heavenly Father. Jesus makes two claims about prayer in verses 7-11. God always answers the prayers of His children. God gives good gifts to His children.
