I came across a couple of beautiful verses from the Word of God today during my quite time. This is from the first book of John (1John : Chapter 5 and verses 14 and 15) - We have courage in God’s presence, because we are sure that he hears us if we ask him for anything that is according to his will. He hears us whenever we ask him; and since we know this is true, we know also that he gives us what we ask from him.’
What an assurance this is to even think that our loving God can meet all our needs. Remember, it mentions ‘according to his will’, not our will. When we ask we must not ask according to our selfish needs. God knows what our needs are and he will provide you these if we ask him in prayer. For eg. he will not answer your prayer if you want to win the next big world lottery jackpot. Though we might want this to happen desperately, according to God, we might not be ready to receive such a large amount and we will be unable to use this much money wisely.
So its best to come to our Gods presence and ask him boldly without any doubt to meet our daily needs.
