Just Ask
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
(Matthew 7:7, NIV)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
What do you need from God today? A lot of times, it’s easy to think that we’re not supposed to ask for too much, but scripture encourages us to go to God with all of our needs. He longs to give you the desires of your heart and pour out His favor and blessing on you. In fact, Jesus said, “You have not because you ask not.”
Anytime you step out and ask for God’s favor, blessing or increase, you are exercising your faith. When you do pray, make sure there isn’t anything in your heart that would block that faith. Begin your prayers by surrendering every thought and attitude to the Lord. Ask Him to purify your motives and show you if there is any unforgiveness in your life. When you surrender everything to the Lord, it opens the door for Him to move on your behalf. Today, surrender all to Him and ask for whatever you need. Let Him pour out His favor and blessing on every area of your life.
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, I humbly come to You and surrender every area of my heart and life. I ask that You pour out Your favor and blessing on me so that I can be a greater blessing to others in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Today's word

Trusting God – Do you have faith –? What is faith – faith gives substance to the things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. So how is ones faith tested –? When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through”  The answer is NO ,  as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing-  and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22   - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...

Know your strength! This question has been asked over and over again – Who do the strong go to? Have you ever felt like you have the answers for everyone else, always there for everyone, but when you need assistance you cannot help yourself and there is no one there to help you? Why?  Because God has equipped you with the gift to be a blessing to others, however you must remember the strong go to God (not man/woman). We must go to him in spirit and in truth seeking guidance and wisdom - always remembering to repent 1 st . With an open mind and open heart trusting and believing that the storm is over and you shall be rewarded - it is time to reap what you have sown.  Its OK that you went through publicly …remember a little rain falls on the just and unjust alike, keep the faith and stay strong the battle is over – you won – stop worrying – its harvest time – for everything there is a season – and now this is your season to walk in your anointing – to ...
