Thematic Bible: Who receives


Thematic Bible



these things have I written to you, that you may know that you have eternal life, by your believing on the name of the son of God. Besides, we have this confidence in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he will hear us. and since we are sure that he hears all our prayers, we are sure that the petitions we presented to him, will be answered.

Jesus answered them, I declare to you, if ye have a full assurance of faith, ye shall not only be able to do this to a fig-tree, but if ye should even say to this mountain, be thou removed, and cast into the sea; it should be done. and whatever ye shall ask in prayer, with faith, ye shall receive.

I tell you likewise, ask, and it shall be given: seek, and ye shall find: knock, and the door shall be opened. for every one that asketh, receives: he that seeketh, finds: and he that knocks has admittance.

Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and ye shall find: knock, and the door shall be opened. for every one that asks, does receive: he that seeks, does find: and he that knocks at the door, is admitted.

for I assuredly tell you, that whoever shall say to this mountain, be removed, and cast into the sea, having no doubt in his mind, but believing what he says shall be effected, what he pronounces shall actually be accomplished. therefore whenever you pray, be fully persuaded of obtaining your request, and I assure you it shall be granted, whatever it be.

beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we may securely confide in God. whatever we ask, we shall receive it of him, because we keep his commandments, and do what is agreeable to him.
