Thematic Bible: Who receives
Thematic Bible
Receiving » Who receives
I have written this so that you who believe in the Son of God may know that you have eternal life. And we have confidence in him, that if we ask him for anything that is in accordance with his will, he will listen to us. And if we know that he listens to whatever we ask him for, we know that the requests we have made of him are granted.
Jesus answered, "I tell you, if you have faith and have no doubt, you will not only do what I have done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Get up and throw yourself into the sea,' it will be done. And everything that you pray for with faith, you will obtain."
So I tell you, ask, and what you ask will be given you. Search, and you will find what you search for. Knock, and the door will open to you. For it is always the one who asks who receives, and the one who searches who finds, and the one who knocks to whom the door opens.
Ask, and what you ask will be given you. Search, and you will find what you search for. Knock, and the door will open to you. For it is always the one who asks who receives, and the one who searches who finds, and the one who knocks to whom the door opens.
I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Get up and throw yourself into the sea!' and has no doubt in his mind, but has faith that what he says will happen, shall have it. Therefore I tell you, whenever you pray or ask for anything, have faith that it has been granted you, and you shall have it.
Dear friends, if our consciences do not condemn us, we approach God with confidence, and we obtain from him whatever we ask for, because we are obeying his commands and doing the things that please him.
