“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

For every one that asketh receiveth; and He that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”

Matthew 7:7-8 KJV

Jesus encourages us to persevere in prayer. I’ve often heard people say they felt like they were bothering God by asking so much. That is not true. We are told to keep asking, to keep seeking, and to keep knocking. We have to understand that God knows what’s best for us, and often we think things should happen right away. Sometimes they do, and sometimes it takes time, but, ultimately, God knows best. We are instructed to keep praying about it though. Don’t let the devil tell you to quit praying for things. We are told in the scriptures, “you have not, for you ask not.” Keep on asking. Jesus says it will be given unto you. Keep on seeking God, and He will be found. Keep on knocking even if it may seem He’s not listening. If we listen close enough, we might find that He’s standing at the door knocking for us to open it up to Him.

Don’t let up.
