Topic: Pray Without Ceasing- Part 5 (Prayer for Yourself)
Text: Matthew 7:7-11
7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
10Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Key Verse: “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” Matthew 7:7
Message
Everyone has dreams and vision for life. However, as people grow older, a lot of things happen along the line that make some shift from their life goals, accomplish some while a whole lot of others are not able to achieve them at all. Daniel was taken into exile, Joseph was sold out by his brothers, Esther became an orphan, Jabez was named sorrow, the three Hebrew children were thrown into the fiery furnace, but in spite of their challenges, they all achieved and made positive impacts because they made the God of heaven their focus.

Prayer for today: Lord, I surrender all to You, have control of my life.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
