Key Verse: Verse 7 – “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:”
Key Words: knock, and it shall be opened unto you
I read the following recently. “When my daughter Michelle was six years old, we went to a hotel in Vail, Colorado. My children were having great fun exploring all the features of the hotel in detail. While my son and I were watching television in the bedroom, and my wife was taking a shower, Michelle was in the other room ‘exploring.’ Michelle began to knock on the door in the other room. I turned toward the room and told her to stop knocking on the bathroom door while Mom was taking a shower.
“A couple minutes later we heard the faint knocking again. I told her to stop it; this time with a little more force in my voice. Once again she began to knock on the door, and now her knocking was accompanied by a muffled scream, ‘Let me in!’
“I was tired of listening to my daughter bother her mother like this. I flew off the bed and went into the other room. No one was there, yet the knocking continued. She had locked herself outside the room and was beginning to panic. I apologetically opened the door and granted her immediate entrance.”
Aren’t you glad that when we knock that God doesn’t become angry? He just opens the door of blessing for us.
