God Has Promised Us – Ask and You WILL Receive!

Nowhere in the Holy Bible Does it Say “You Might Receive”

Nor does it say, “You will receive only if it be God’s Will”

Matthew 7:7-8

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. 

Luke 11:9-13

 And I say unto you, 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. 

If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? Or if [he ask] a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 

 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall [your] heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

John 16:22-33

 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you. 

 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you. 

 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. 

 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.

 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: 

 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me

 and have believed that I came out from God. 

I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again

 I leave the world, and go to the Father. 

 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. 

 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? 

 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. 

 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. 

God’s Promise Continued…

Hebrews 11:6

But without faith [it is] impossible to please [Him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and [that] He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.

James 1:2-7

My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

Knowing [this], that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

But let patience have [her] perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all [men] liberally,

and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven

with the wind and tossed.

For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

Still don’t believe that whatever you ask you will receive?

Then read James’ warning.

To believe is to receive but those that do not believe or waver in belief will not receive.

James 4:1-8

From whence [come] wars and fightings among you? [come they] not hence, [even] of your lusts that war in your members? 

Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 

Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume [it] upon your lusts. 

Ye adulterers and adulteresses know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 

Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, the spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
