WHATSOEVER WE ASK

WHATSOEVER WE ASK
Many a time we ask believing and we receive; but not all things asked at times are given. Asking is an act of making a request or petition. Our GOD is still alive and still hears request and petitions. Delays to request and petitions many a time are caused by not keeping GOD’s commandments and not doing what pleases GOD. Many even ask amiss and not according to the will of GOD. James 4 vs. 3: Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. How can a man who keeps not GOD’s commandments and doesn’t please GOD pray to HIM and he answers? GOD cannot behold iniquity; His eyes are too pure to behold them. Isaiah 59 vs.1: Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear. Vs.2: But your iniquities have separated between you and your GOD and your sins have hid his face from you that he will not hear. 1 John 3 vs. 22: And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. Vs.23: And this is his commandment that we should believe on the name of his son JESUS CHRIST, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. Whatsoever we ask, we receive from HIM provided we keep his commandments, please him and believe in the name of JESUS. Matthew 7 vs.7: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; vs. 8: For everyone that ask receive, and he that seek find, and to him that knock it shall be opened. Vs.9: Or what man is there of you, who if his son ask bread, will give him a stone?  Vs. 10: Or if he asks a fish, will he give him a serpent?
           Furthermore, when a man asks in the name of JESUS he receives, provided he believe and pleases GOD. When a man seeks in the name of JESUS, he finds; when a man knocks in the name of JESUS it opens. Psalm 50 vs. 15: And call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. Psalm 91 vs. 15: He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. These come to pass when a man set his love upon GOD. Psalm 91 vs. 14: Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. David snatched Uriah’s wife Bathsheba and yet wrote a letter to Joab to set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle and retire from him, that he may be smitten and die. 2 Samuel 12 vs. 13: And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, the LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. Vs. 14: Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. Vs. 15 b: And the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David, and it was very sick. Vs. 16: David therefore besought GOD for the child; and David fasted and went in and lay all night upon the earth. But with all these he did, the child died. It is always good to do the right thing in the sight of our Maker, so that whatsoever we ask in his name believing we receive. It is well with us…

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
