JESUS said:
John 15:7
King James Version
7 If ye abide in me,
and my words abide in you,
ye shall ask what ye will,
and it shall be done unto you.
What did the LORD JESUS say, about prayer?
Let's hear from the FOUR apostles who documented the WORDS of JESUS:
Mark 11:24 (KJV)
24 Therefore I say unto you,
What things soever ye desire,
when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them,
and ye shall have them.
John 14:13-14 (KJV)
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name,
that will I do,
that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name,
I will do it.
Matthew 21:21-22 (KJV)
21 Jesus answered and said unto them,
Verily I say unto you,
If ye have faith,
and doubt not,
ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree,
but also if ye shall say unto this mountain,
Be thou removed,
and be thou cast into the sea;
it shall be done.
22 And all things,
whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer,
believing,
ye shall receive.
Luke 11:9 (KJV)
9 And I say unto you,
Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
Here are the LORD's admonitions about the kind of praying we do:
Matthew 6:5-6 (KJV)
5 And when thou prayest,
thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are:
for they love to pray standing in the synagogues
and in the corners of the streets,
that they may be seen of men.
Verily I say unto you,
They have their reward.
6 But thou,
when thou prayest,
enter into thy closet,
and when thou hast shut thy door,
pray to thy Father which is in secret;
and thy Father which seeth in secret
shall reward thee openly.
Matthew 6:7-8 (KJV)
7 But when ye pray,
use not vain repetitions,
as the heathen do:
for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them:
for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of,
before ye ask him.
And here's the PRAYER Jesus asked us to pray:
Matthew 6:9-13 (KJV)
9 After this manner therefore pray ye:
Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done in earth,
as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory,
for ever.
Amen.
As always, I THANK the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD, who led me to these verses, easily.
Things are really simple with the LORD.
Let's not complicate it.
