Receive What You Ask For / Ann Graham Lotz

Receive What You Ask For

I tell you the truth, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.

John 16:23, niv

Jesus said we are to ask if we want to receive.

My mother encouraged me as a little girl to pray specifically. She bought me a small white leather notebook, and in it I carefully recorded my requests. Then, at her instruction, I left a blank line under each one so I could record the date of the answer. In the front of the little book, she penned these words:

Thou art coming to a King,

Large petitions with thee bring,

For His grace and power are such,

None can ever ask too much!

So feel free to ask! But leave a blank space under your request so you can record the answer! Because Jesus said if we ask we will receive.
