Seeking Answers

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened," (Matthew 7:7-8 NIV).

What do you need today? These scripture verses assure us that if we are persistent in asking God for what we need it will be given to us. Be tenacious in asking for wisdom, knowledge, patience, love and understanding and we will receive it.

What are you looking for? Jesus will help you find it. Are you looking for answers, forgiveness, mercy, or grace? God's Word will reveal answers to us as we read it. Jesus bought us forgiveness, mercy and grace when He went to the cross for us.

Are you knocking on a door? Are you looking for employment or knocking for God to hear your prayers? God will answer the door and hear our questions and desires. God will open doors for us regarding employment if we consistently seek God's guidance and direction as we look for a job. We can't give up or lose patience. God wants us to be committed to our request.

God doesn't always answer in our time frame (now). He may be teaching us a lesson, helping us grow in our faith, or teaching us to wait for what is best for us. The more we learn about God the clearer our answers become in God's time.
