Ask Anything And It Will Be Given.

 "But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!" John 15:7

This verse is powerful if you think on it. Think about it this way, how parents are for their kids on Christmas, they always try their best to give their children the best gifts they can. My dad tells a story a lot around Christmas and it never gets old for me, he wanted a go kart as a child and his dad didn't have enough money for it, his dad saved up the most he could and still was short some. So his dad went and sold something that was sentimental to him in order to afford the go cart for my dad. He had enough afterwards so they went and picked it up. My dad never forgot what my grandpa done for him. That's the same way Jesus is. He wants us to have the things we want and desire to have. He wants to give us all we could ever need. All we have to do is ask and it will be given to us. We also shouldn't rush when it will be given though, even though God does promise to give us things, He never put a timing label on it. He didn't say in "a week I'll give it to you if you ask" no he said ask and it will be given. As in soon as God feels its time. If you're asking for something from God today know he wants to give it to you, just be patient. All good things take time. God is here for you and wants you to live a life with abundant blessings. Here are some verses to reflect on today. "If we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. And since we know he hears us when we make our request, we also know that he will give us what we ask for." 1 John 5:14-15 "Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!" John 14:14 "You can ask anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father." John 14:13 "I also tell you this; if two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you." Matthew 18:19

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
