Luke 11:9

Ask, Seek, Knock

⁸ I say to you, Though he will not get up and give to him, because he is his friend, still, if he keeps on making his request, he will get up and give him as much as he has need of. ⁹ And I say to you, Make requests, and they will be answered; what you are searching for, you will get; when you give the sign, the door will be open to you. ¹⁰ For to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire; and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

Seek and You Will Find
