What have you done with this?

“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him?” Mathew 7:11

One of the greatest promises of God to you in the Bible is Mathew 7:7 -Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you. The Lord told me to ask you what have you done with this verse?

In Mark 6:17-26, the wicked Herodias wanted to punish John the Baptist, she wanted revenge for the evil she believed he had done her, when he publicly declared her wrong as wrong and evil. She got the “opportunity” when a mere earthly king told her daughter: “Whatever you shall ask from me, I will give it to you, to the half of my kingdom”. The wicked woman told the daughter to ask for the head of John the Baptist. Although the king was not happy with the request, he gave it to her because of his integrity.

Beloved, Mathew 7:7 is one of the greatest opportunities God is giving to you. God has exalted His word more than His name. The scripture cannot be broken. The integrity of God’s word surpasses that of men or even a wicked king. Do you need a good thing? Or are you in a desperate situation? Don’t worry, ask God and He will respond to you.

Have a blessed day.
