Have you lost hope for your situation?
Do you feel like your prayers aren't being answered?
Have hope: Pastor Ilya shares an encouraging word on asking, seeking and knocking. Don't give up. Our God is faithful and is working in your midst RIGHT NOW!
Notes:
Luke 11:5-10
Psalm 2:8
Jeremiah 33:3
Matthew 21:22
If you ask Him for bread or fish He will give it to you.
Pray until you receive your answer. Don’t stop praying because it got hard, it got worse, or it’s taking longer.
God is still in the business of answering His people.
He is asking for His friend.
Your life’s mission and goal has to be bigger that just to have enough for yourself. That’s an empty and useless life. Set a goal to have more than enough.
The Church must ask, seek and knock into the windows of heaven for bread for our friends.
Jesus said that those prayers will be answered.
Don’t let your friend go hungry. Jesus was a friend of sinners. Friend from far off (far from God)
DO YOU have friends from FAR OFF?
Harvest is plentiful.
“Friend of mine journeys from far off”. People are coming to God after being far off from Him and we as a church must offer them bread.
3 Loaves of Bread
1. Bread of Salvation - I am the bread of life: Jesus (Eternal life)
2. Bread of Healing - Jesus said my body is bread that is being broken. By His stripes we are healed.
3. Bread of Deliverance - Jesus said that children’s bread is deliverance. It’s better to be a person that could not deliver someone than being a person that would not deliver someone.
You are raised to deliver!
How do you get this bread for your family, friends and community?
Ask - prayer
Seek - connect
Knock - put it to practice
