Prayer

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7
This is Jesus' direct words to His disciples.
Ask - Jesus is inviting us to ask for what we need. He wants to hear our wants and our needs every day.
Seek - Jesus wants us to desire it. If you want something that's fine, but if you desire it you will continually chase after it.
Knock - Seek it out. If you want to find someone, really want to see them, you go to their house and knock on the door, that's how it is with Jesus.
Have you got a burden on your heart or mind? Is there something that your heart is desiring? Take it to God.
Think about it this way. Alexa and P.J. ask Santa Claus for certain things for Christmas. Do you know what they do on CHristmas morning? They get up and go into the living room seeking those things. It should be the same way with us and our prayer life.
Jesus is specific to tell us to ask, seek and knock. In the following verses He repetitively tells us the same thing. Why? Because it is that important to Him. When you share something with someone, and you want them to remember its' importance, you repeat it a few times. Jesus does that very thing in these verses.
Prayer is just as important to God as it is to us. He is waiting to hear from us, He knows our feelings and our struggles, but He still wants us to share them with Him. How awesome!
Suppose someone comes to you and wants to tell you a story, or maybe tell you about something that happened earlier that day. If you have already heard that story, or already know what happened, what do you do? Yeah, I am bad about cutting them off and letting them know I've already heard it. God hears the same prayers from the same people on a daily basis, and He waits patiently to hear it, time a time again.
So make sure you pray daily, don't just ask for things, seek them and you'll see your prayers come to life as God uses them to guide and direct you in life.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!
