Truth Exposed: Prayer #3
Recently I was asked for an explanation of Matthew 7:7: why do we need to knock if the door to the Father is always open? Great question. Matthew 7:7-8 is a teaching on prayer, as follows:
- To ASK is the starting point; we recognize our dependence on Jesus
- To SEEK is our active pursuit of a relationship with Jesus
- To KNOCK is our persistence in going after what we are asking and seeking
Makes sense to me.
Read carefully.
Ask questions.
Know your scriptures.
