Gods Readiness To Answer Prayer
Jesus said: "Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and
the door will be opened to you; for every one who asks receives, and he
who seeks finds, and to him who knocks the door will be opened.
"What man is there among you, who if his son asks him for a loaf of
bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a
snake? Then if you, evil as you are, know how to give good gifts to your
children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to
those who ask him.
"Also I tell you: if two of you on earth agree about that for which you
ask, it will be granted to you by my Father in heaven. For where two or
three have gathered together in my name, I am there with them."
