This was actually a bonus for those following by email so if you have yet to do so I'd encourage you to as there will be future benefits like it. So if you've already received it, sorry, but read it again, comment or pass it on please! It's an extension of my post on why God's answer is always yes....
I look forward to learning from your communications. Which by the way if you haven't jumped in on any of the conversation, please do(: It's the best way we can interact & it's also what will make your time visiting, the most worthwhile.
So the 4 Reasons.... they're simple, practical ways that you can be certain to get yes answers. I will note that, they aren't exhaustive, there's other ways as I'm sure you could share from your own journey (which feel free to do so in the comments) But these are my TOP 4:
God's answer will be yes WHEN........
1. We need to be saved (Matt. 8)
- Any time we cry out for help, He'll say yes.
2. We are humble (Matt. 15:21-28)
- Although He's big enough to exclude us... He's graceful enough to include us.
3. We ask him to confirm who he is (Matt. 14:28-29)
- This point again goes back to the post on how to get yes answers from God.
4. We need to be reminded who we are (Matt. 11:10-11a)
- Anytime we doubt or forget our purpose, He not only drowns our uncertainty, He tells us exactly who we are.
James 4:3 says, "When you ask, you do not receive because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures." Don't know about you but this too often hits home with me. Whether you're in a storm or not, & need to be saved. Ask sincerely who are You & what is my purpose. Check your motives. I've experienced response many times by not only centralizing my question, but also through centralizing my intent & focusing both toward Christ.(we'll talk later about focus vs. discipline)
Thanks again (: for visiting & I look forward to hearing from you soon.
What would you add?
Helping the growth within, come out
