You Just Have to Ask


[9] And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. [10] For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. [11] What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; [12] or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? [13] If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
(Luke 11:9-13 ESV)


I recently preached on Luke 11:9-13.   It's all about the Fatherhood of God and prayer and is one of my favorite texts in the Bible.   God doesn't hand out snakes.  He loves to give himself as the greatest gift in the universe.  What do we most want?  If you want to take a listen you can do so here.
