Now This is the Confidence we have in Him...



I John 5:14, 15
14 Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

Doesn't God's Word bring encouragement and Great Hope???? Thank God.

We've been told that we ask anything according to His will He hears us....His Word IS HIS WILL. He also told us that if He heard us, that we'd have the petitions we asked of Him.

We have His will and testament in book form. All we have to do is to read it, believe it and make use of it in prayer. All we need to do is to renew our minds to His Word (Romans 12:1,2) God, help us to remember that faith comes by hearing, and hearing the Word of God.

Thank You Father for HELPING US to believe You. Help us to believe Your Word, Your Promises, to us. Help us to renew our minds to Your Word, and to be transformed by it. Thank You that there is a seed of faith that You have put inside of us all, and thank You for helping us to cause that seed to grow, with Your Word. Help us to remember that You instructed us to come boldly before the Throne of Grace to You. Help us to remember that all we need to do is to ask, seek, and knock and to have GREAT CONFIDENCE in Your Word, in Jesus' Name.
