It’s been a year of battles and breakthroughs. The breakthroughs took a lot out of me. Then suddenly the answers dropped down out of heaven. What a relief and joy.

Meanwhile there are a couple other mountains I want to see moved and nothing is happening at all. Blank. Silent. Still. Can you relate to any of this? 

And that’s why the Lord keeps reminding me about something He said:

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened,” Jesus, Matthew 7:7-8

Have you ever stopped and thought about what this looks like? Jesus is describing prayer and He said:

ASK. Which means open your mouth. Make your appeal. Use your voice.

SEEK. Use your eyes, keep looking and maintain your focus. 

KNOCK. Use your hands. Make your presence known. Hit the door like you want to be heard.

So my friend, breakthroughs await those who don’t faint. Let’s press into the Lord and press on with Him.

The 2nd part of the ‘ask, seek, knock’ passage is great news for you and me. 

Jesus said, “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask Him!” Matthew 7:9-11

Jesus gives you and I an amazing invitation, DO NOT HOLD BACK. A good God has good things in store for you. Amen.

In His love and mine,

Kathleen Dillard
