What good do we ask in prayer…
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened...Matthew 7:7-8.
When you pray for others good by loving your neighbor as yourself you will then have all you need to do so…When we pray are we seeking what God desires or what we think He desires… When you pray do you pray selfishly or for your neighbor as if he was Jesus and in need…?
When we seek God and His will, we are supplied with our own needs…
Wherefore, if God so cloths the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more cloth you, O you of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.
If you change your now then you change your future. You cannot enter into the Kingdom of God unless you purpose in heart to do so. You must decide to put Jesus as the Top Priority as the Supreme will in your life. Have you read the New Testament to learn of His teachings. He is the Truth you and I need to live our life by and the simplest and popular saying is still true with Jesus…Love your neighbor as yourself and remember love works no ill will towards its neighbor.
You cannot do your family’s will and please God, we must put Jesus first and foremost in our decisions…
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple...Luke 14:26-27.
You cannot love any soul more than Jesus. If you love your family more than Jesus then you are in the wrong. How do you love Jesus more than your family when all you see on earth physically is your family…? By placing Jesus teaching as your Way of life…as the Truth you practice…so your Life looks like Jesus. Can God say your life looks like a what would Jesus do? Can God say you practice His teachings?
Prayer
Father forgive us for being selfish and concerned for our selves and not Your will for us…please help us to reflect on how we can seek first your Kingdom and enter in so our soul will be saved…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
