Luke 11:7-13
7"Then the one inside answers, 'Don't bother me. The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can't get up and give you anything.' 8I tell you, though he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man's boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs.
9"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
11"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
This passage that Jesus speaks of shows us to continue to seek the Lord and ask of Him, specifically of spirituality, but to be bold in all that we are, so that our spirit may know God more. The Lord is good, and will allow us to know of His blessings for us.
We should continue to seek Him in prayer and ask in boldness for what He wants for us. My life is full of decisions and I know that I have to allow God to take hold of my life, and ask Him of what He wants for me. I know that He will show me the plans for my life.
Father God, I want to thank you for your love in my life. I want to thank you for the blessings that you have poured in me, and that I may give you glory. I pray to seek you more and more each day, to be bold in my prayer, and to hear from you so that I know seek your answers. I thank you for the opportunity to just spend time in prayer with you. I thank you for all this and continue to use me in your ways. I give you all the glory in Jesus name.
Amen.
