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!----Matthew7:11
Jesus set some laws of conduct for those having his spirit in them. He USES these simple arguments to convince us that God controls everything. The disciple must have complete faith and be eager to seek and pray.
Keep in mind that God is here, so that when trouble comes, you will be like breathing. Remember, “My father knows all about it!” You don’t have to. The idea comes naturally out of confusion and pressure. You used to go to find one person or another for help, but now you believe so strongly in God’s supreme authority. You seek help to God.
Jesus laid down here a law of conduct for those having his spirit. The principle is that God is my Father, and he loves me and has not forgotten anything about me. Why then should I worry? Jesus said that sometimes God didn’t take away the darkness, but you still had to trust him. God seems like a cruel friend, but he is not. He seems like an unreasonable father, but he really isn’t. He seemed like an unjust judge, he was anything but. Remember that God is behind everything. This concept should be strengthened and constantly increased. Nothing can happen unless God’s will is behind it, so you can trust in rest completely. Prayer is not only a prayer, but also a natural prayer atmospheres of mind. “Ask and it will be given to you.”
Dear God, inspire my life with your abundant power, kindness and goodness. Give it a chance to show your face. That seems to be all I pray for.
神掌管一切的观念(0716)
何况你们在天上的父，岂不更把好东西给求他的人么？（太七11）
耶稣为那些有他的灵在心中的人，设下一些行为的法则。他藉这几句简单的辩论，要我们满心相信神是控制一切事情的。意思就是：门徒必须完全信靠，同时渴切寻找祈求。
你的心思要牢扣神在这里的意念，这样，困难一旦临到，你就像呼吸一样，记得：「嗨，我的父完全知道！」你不必费力，这个意念是在困惑压逼之中自然出来的。以往你会去找这个人那个人帮忙，如今你既对神至高的掌管如此坚信，你就去找神。耶稣在此为有他灵的人奠下行为的法则，原则就是——神是我的父，他爱我，没有忘记我的每一件事，那末，我何必忧虑呢？
耶稣说神有时候不把黑幕挪开，你仍要信靠他。神似乎像个狠心的朋友，他其实不是。他似乎像个不合理的父亲，他实在不是。他似乎像不公正的审判官，他绝非如此。要记住，神是在一切事的背后。这观念要加强且不住的增长。除非神的旨意在背后，否则没有任何事可以发生，因此你大可以完全信靠安息。祈祷不光是祈求，更是一种生发自然祈求气氛的心态。「你们祈求，就给你们。」
祈祷◆噢，主啊，以你充沛的能力、恩慈和美善，来激励我的生命；让它有机会显露你的面容。这似乎便是我全部的祷告。
