How much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
Jesus promises that whatever we ask of God, He will give us.
This is easy to brush over for two main reasons. You might remember a time that you asked and didn't receive. Or, maybe you feel that it is not appropriate to expect God to give you the things you ask for.
Nevertheless, Jesus did not lie. He meant it when He said, "Whatever you ask, God will give you."
There is only one way to receive the promises of God: by faith alone.
If you give in to the temptation to doubt for whatever reason, you break the link between you and heaven.
If a child asks you for bread, will you give him a snake? Of course not. Then why do you think that God will provide you with something evil when you ask Him for something good?
When you ask for healing, He doesn't give you sickness.
When you ask for provision, He doesn't give you bills.
When you ask for deliverance, He doesn't give you bondage.
But when you submit to doubt or discouragement, you position yourself in the devil's realm.
Resist every temptation to doubt. Stand firm in faith. Place your eyes firmly on Jesus.
When you do, you will have whatever you ask for. It may take time, but it will surely come—if you only believe.
Believe only. That's the key. Leave room for nothing else.
