“Takuology”

 “But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.” John 11:22 KJV.

 If you connect to God, you have connected to your miracle. In John 11:22, Mary expressed her unwavering faith in Jesus, knowing that whatever He asked of God would be granted. This mirrors the promise in Jeremiah 33:3, "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." Just as Mary believed Jesus could bring her brother Lazarus back to life after four days in the tomb, we too must believe that no situation is too difficult for God to intervene. As Matthew 7:7 assures us, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." When we turn to God with our needs and requests, we open ourselves to His miraculous power.

To receive your miracle, persistence in prayer is essential. This is what I call "TAKUOLOGY" – pray until something happens. Like the widow in 2 Kings 4:2 who shut her door to pour out oil, sometimes we need to seek solitude in prayer or add fasting, giving, or service to our petitions. Jesus Himself taught in Luke 18:1 about the importance of praying always and not giving up. When we hold onto God's promises and refuse to take "no" for an answer, we demonstrate our faith and trust in His power. Just as God responded to the persistent prayers of Hannah (1 Samuel 1:20) and the fervent prayers of Elijah (James 5:17-18), He will respond to you. You will not be put to shame, for God honors those who diligently seek Him.

As this month is about to end, you will testify of God’s goodness. He will give you a miracle beyond your expectations in Jesus’ name.

Prayer: Lord, we pray for the strength to persist in prayer, to seek You with all our hearts, and to knock continuously until the doors are opened. Fill us with unwavering faith, and help us to never take no for an answer when it comes to Your promises. Let our lives be a testimony of Your power and faithfulness. We declare that we will not be put to shame, for You are our God, and You honor those who diligently seek You. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
