Ask.

Ask.

Ask. We need ask. Some people assume God already knows and had no need of us telling Him what He knows already.  It's true that God knows, but it's equally true we need to ask.  I hear this often- God knows the end from the beginning so nothing can change, we can't change anything, we can't change His mind everything is already set in stone. If this were true why would Jesus say this--

Luk 18:1  And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; 

Luk 18:2  Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 

Luk 18:3  And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 

Luk 18:4  And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 

Luk 18:5  Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. 

Luk 18:6  And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. 

Luk 18:7  And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? 

Luk 18:8  I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? 

God wants us to communicate with Him and He communicates with us through PRAYER. God wants to be a REAL entity to us, not some fictitious character from a story. God wants to be close to us. Our Holy Heavenly Father WANTS to know us individually through communication that goes beyond His just knowing because He knows.

Some might believe that because we do NOT hear God speaking to us that we waste our time talking with Him. Do we truly need to get responses in order to communicate with someone? How often have you talked to an animal? How often have you talked with someone who is sleeping? How often have you spoken to yourself? What about someone who has been sick, unconscious, it isn't unusual to speak to them.  God is verbally silent to us, why? Possibly because of faith.

Faith- the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for the EVIDENCE of things not seen.

God is the SUBSTANCE of hope.

God is the EVIDENCE unseen.

God is FAITH.

God is REAL and God wants us to speak to Him as being real. God is with us ALWAYS in everything we do. God is not constrained by flesh or by circumstance. If we are HIS, HE is with us.

We need to ASK.

Mat 7:7  Ask, and it shall be given you

Php 4:6  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 

In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving.

More tomorrow by the GRACE and WILL of our GOD! All through our Savior, our Lord, Jesus Christ! Now and forever!!!!!!!
