Matthew 7:7-11

Matthew 7:7-11 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. “Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
“Some people think that God does not like to be troubled by our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.” ~ D. L. Moody

Isaiah 32:17
The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever.
Confidence is not something that comes from ourselves nor is it something that we place in ourselves. It is the
by-product that comes from God when we live our lives in obedience to His Word.

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. “Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.” ~ Dorothy Thompson

For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding.

Matthew 14:27-29
But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” “
Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”
“Come,” he said.
Peter understood this: In stormy times of difficulty, no matter what the circumstances, it’s always best to be with Jesus, even when it means leaving the “security” of the boat. Go to Him!

1 John 4:1-4

1 John 4:1-4
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
“The harder the devil strikes, the more we will enjoy his defeat. Let him come!” ~ A Christian in Sudan
