Thematic Bible: Who receives


Thematic Bible



These things I wrote to you who believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life. And this is the confidence which we have toward Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us; and, if we know that He heareth us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we asked of Him.

And Jesus, answering, said to them, "Verily I say to you, if ye have faith, and do not doubt, not only the withering of the fig tree shall ye accomplish, but, even if ye say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up, and be cast into the sea,' it shall be done. And all things whatsoever ye ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."

And I say to you, ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you: for every one who asks receives; and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks it shall be opened.

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you; for every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened.

Verily I say to you, whosoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says comes to pass; he shall have it. Therefore, I say to you, all things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye received them, and ye shall have them.

Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have confidence toward God; and whatsoever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments, and do the things that are pleasing before Him.
