Keep on Keeping God

Matthew 7:7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 

Jesus gives us not a formula here, but a lifestyle and attitude to live by in our faith.  I cant tell you how many Christians have said things like, "I tried that bible stuff before" or "I've prayed already".  As if God owes them something and isn't listening.  So they stop!  Shame on this evil behavior!  Jesus, in an imperative present action, tells us to keep asking, keep seeking, & keep knocking.  Who told you to stop?  Jesus desires we be persistent.  He then gives the promise that you will receive, you will find, & you will have the door opened to you.  We tend to hold God to our timeline of when things should happen.  God has His own and works outside of time.  He is the Resurrection and the Life.  If your situation dies, what does that change with God?  He can bring you back to life.  Keep asking, seeking, & knocking, Jesus told us to.
