Ask

 Matthew 7:7 ESV

 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 


This verse isn't a blank cheque to become a billionaire. In the context, it's about God giving good gifts to his children. It's not wrong to make money; it is wrong to be stingy and to horde wealth.

God gives us what we need. He wants us to have more than enough, but not so that we can line our own pockets. Instead, he wants us to be generous.

Ultimately, we shouldn't be hankering after stuff. Our primary focus should be to seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, and he'll provide our needs.

Having said the above, God himself is generous. He isn't begrudging to give us what we need. He delights to answer sincere prayer.

'Dear Father God, please help us to boldly ask you for what we need, and please hear our cries, for we come in Jesus' name, amen'
