“Asking “

Pastor Duane Cross

November 11, 2007

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

(9)"Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? (10)Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? (11)If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!”            Matthew 7:17-11

I.  Ask and it will be given to you.

II.  Seek and you will find.

“One thing I ask of the LORD,  this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,  to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.”  Psalm 27:4

“The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.  I will advise you and watch over you.”  Psalm 32:8 (New Living Translation)

III.  Knock and the door will be opened to you.
