Dare to be specific

Philippians 4:6 - “do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”

Have you ever asked God for something specific, something so commonplace that you at first didn’t even think to mention it?

God tells us in John 5:14 that if we ask anything according to His will, God hears us.

I talk to God all day long; thanking Him for everything. I do ask for specific things because from past requests, I have received what I asked for. Now I know that God doesn’t give me everything I ask for, because not everything I ask for is good for me.

This reminds me of when my kids were little. They would ask me for certain things and if I thought it was good for them, or if I thought they needed it, I would give it to them.

How much more do you think God wants to give to His children

What have you been wanting lately? Is there something specific that you’ve been wanting? Ask God. If He doesn’t think it’s good for you or that it might harm you, He won’t give it to you.

Get to know God. Keep him close. Ask Him anything..
