Morning:
Thus saith the Lord GOD;
I will yet for this be enquired of.
Yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and the door shall be opened to you: for every one that
asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that
knocketh the door shall be opened. This is the confidence that
we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will,
he heareth us: and if we know that he heareth us, whatever we
ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired from
him. If any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who
giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall
be given to him. I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee out
of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears
are open to their cry. The righteous cry, and the LORD
heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. Ye
shall ask in my name: and I say not to you, that I will pray the
Father for you: for the Father himself loveth you, because ye
have loved me. Ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be
full.
Ezekiel 36:37 James 4:2 Matthew 7:7-8 1 John 5:14-15 James 1:5 Psalms 81:10 Luke 18:1 Psalms 34:15 Psalms 34:17 John 16:26-27 John 16:24
Evening:
Shall we receive good at the hand of God,
and shall we not receive evil?
I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that
thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. O LORD, thou art our
father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are
the work of thy hand. It is the LORD: let him do what seemeth
him good.
Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I plead with thee: yet let
me speak with thee of thy judgments.
He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver. Whom the
Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he
receiveth. It is enough for the disciple that he should be as
his teacher, and the servant as his lord. If they have called
the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they
call them of his household? Though he was a Son, yet he
learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
But rejoice, seeing ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings;
that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with
exceeding joy. These are they who came out of the great
tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in
the blood of the Lamb.
