God gives good things
Matthew 7:11
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Dear Saints,
We said last week that we must be single-minded if we are to get anything from God. The Psalmist said, “ One thing l have desired of the Lord that will l seek after…….” Here is a perfect attitude of single mindedness, ONE thing l have desired. The one thing is specific. Not just throwing a lot of things to God and hoping one wins. One has to be intentional about asking the good things from God.
Tell God exactly what you want. And if you are walking in obedience and seeking to please Him, be confident when you come before Him. “ our heart does not condemn us not….we have confidence toward God” (1 John 3:21). But be careful, guilt undermines faith. When you permit sin into your life you become uncomfortable in God’s presence, and its hard to believe for the results you want. Miracles happen for a believer, so get back into a position where you can confidently believe God for the thing you need.
God’s word of promise is forever settled in heaven and always fulfilled. Jesus said, “how much more…?” Shall your father give Good things to those who ask Him….pay attention to the applied relationship…its a father, son or daughter relationship. Its powerful…He will give it “much more” than expected. That’s my God. This is another Bible promise, “No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly”. Psalms 84:11
For the Lord God is a sun and shield:the Lord will give grace and glory:no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. If it’s good, He will give it to you. Don’t allow the devil to steal from you in any form air shape. Watch next week in your SPREADING THE LIGHT BULLETIN. Stay blessed.
