#Ask and thou shall receiveth

[jamieedlund]

Hey there! I love your art and sometimes I see then in my TL across the social medias but I always had this question lurking in the back of my mind and thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. Is your content ship content ? (As in, Aaravos x Callum) or is it just fraternal/non romantic? I'm sorry if I come off rude, but (1/2)

I don't mind people asking of course but i've got this question so many times now and I might just throw this one into the tag so hopefully everyone won't keep asking me. I think if you look any deeper you would see how obvious I do not define their relationship. However, I have said, a lot of times before that I DO NOT intend for their relationship to be fraternal(I always say parental but thank you for reminding me that this word exist) NOR romantic. It is what it is, two people who understand each other on a fundamental level hanging out and being themselves. I think they're allowed to just chill at that line because as it is RIGHT NOW in the timeline of the show, Cally is a teenager and Aaravos is ... Aaravos. Their dynamic might change in the future as all relationship grow and change naturally but what I want to portray right now is just a comfortable, wholesome dynamic between two individuals who love, care and understand each other. I hope I never have to clarify this again. I think relationship can have nuances, just like a person can be complicated, if that makes sense? If anyone sees anything more or less in my art then that's probably on them. I'm just offering a relationship where everything make sense at least to me.

I have explained more about it here and here if anyone is still confused. You can also click on the ask jamie tag to see all of my answers to questions about them.(o゜▽゜)o☆

#ask jamie #about them #aaravos #callum #ASKETH AND THOU SHALL RECEIVETH #i think #I do think they don't love each other the same way #people are very complicated #but it's very precious either way #but then again if you ask me no two people ever love each other the same way #love is different for everyone #I just wanna vibe #thank you for asking politely tho

A Daring Creature -Part 2

Zestial x angel fem reader

Note: The chapters of 'A Daring Creature' are a lot shorter than the multi-chapter fic I've written for Vox and the reason for that is because writing old english is a lot more exhausting and I don't want to make you wait too long. Hope you understand!

Warning: inacurate middle English and attempted (sexual is implied) assault (It doesn't go far)

PART 1 - PART 2 - PART 3 - PART 4

Zestial had barely knocked on her bedroom door, when the door opened revealing Y/n. She wore a simple dress with her hair put up, every single one of her angel features were noticeable.

"I'm ready to go!" She made a little jump of excitement.

"Nay, thou art not." Zestial held up his old, black coat. "Putteth it on. I doth not wisheth for everyone to knoweth I am housing an angel."

"Fine." She took the coat and used it to cover her angelic wings. "Happy?"

Zestial grabbed the hood and pulled it over her halo. "Yes."

The two made it down the stairs and out the front door. Y/n was hopping around, being able to take in hell for the first time.

"Where are we going first?" She asked, staring at the growing city in the distance.

"We art just going to doth a few tasks, nothing special." As Zestial was walking around, the demons around disappeared from the streets out of fear. "Keepeth quiet and doth not interact with aught."

"Don't worry, I can handle myself."

Zestial didn't answer but the silence made his scepticism clear.

He was looking at her prancing around with wonder. It was a strange sight, seeing someone so mesmerised at the horrid streets of hell like it was wonderland. Although if he went to heaven, he too would be intrigued by the underworld. Maybe even visit, like Y/n had done.

She was prancing from one side of the sidewalk to the other. At some point she looked into the show window of an abandoned store, they had run off when Zestial came into view.

"Where is everyone?" She asked. "It's says that it's open but no one's inside."

"It doest not matter." He walked past her. "Keepeth walking, it is unbecoming to beest late."

When she noticed she was a bit too far behind, she ran up to him. "You haven't actually told me yet where we're going."

"First, we art going to visiteth an old friend. Then thee stayeth there while I wend to a meeting." Zestial took a sharp turn to the side entrance of a building.

"So you are leaving me inside again?"

"If it be true thee maketh not trouble-" He knocked on the door.- "I shall taketh thee to where ever thee wanteth to wend this afternoon."

"Fine."

The door opened, revealing a tall woman with white hair pulled up to look like horns. Her red eyes looked Y/n up and down. The glare made a shiver go down the angel's spine.

"Zestial, it's good to see you." The woman stepped aside to let him and Y/n inside. "I see you brought a friend. What can I do for you?"

"Carmilla, I am afraid I has't to asketh thee for a favour." Zestial put his hand on Y/n's shoulder. "Can thee host Y/n in thy home here during the overlord meeting?" He pulled down her hood, when Y/n was about to pull it down. "I hadst to bringeth her out and I didst not wanteth to headeth all the way back to my manner to receiveth her afterwards."

"Who is she?" Carmilla questioned. "It isn't like you to pick up charity cases."

"Thou art as attentive as ever," Zestial admitted, "Y/n is an angel." He ripped of the cloak revealing her glowing halo and majestic wings.

"I take it you want to keep this under wraps." She inspected the angel in front of her once more. "As long as she doesn't cause any trouble."

"Doth not worry, she shall not."

Carmilla had Y/n showed to common room where she was to stay. The two overlords had been gone for half an hour when Y/n started to get bored. No one was around, she had no one to talk to like at Zestial's home and there were no activities she could possibly come up with without making a mess. Y/n realised she ended up in a worse situation than if she had stayed back.

How she wanted to explore hell already... Maybe she could. It couldn't be that bad and if something happened she could just run back to Zetial's or Carmilla's home.

The angel's eyes landed on an open window. It was very high up but the only one that was open. She took of her cloak and folded it up in her arms. Finally being able to stretch his wings. Y/n spread time wide, jumped up and made her way through the window.

The angel landed in an alley. She quickly looked around, making sure no one had seen her and then covered herself with the cloak again.

Y/n recognized the street as the one she walked with Zestial on with. If she was careful with her turns, she could probably find her way back, besides Carmilla's home was very recognizable.

Walking through the street was very different than when she was with Zestial. Demons roamed the street, yelling fighting or just minding their business. Looking too her left, she recognized the shop she had seen earlier. Now it was filled with demons.

After a few turns, she seemed to have caught the interests of a group of denizens. A big, muscular, shark demon seemed to be the one in charge while smaller demons of all kinds followed him around.

"And what's a girlie like you doing out here?" The shark demon smirked, showing off his sharp teeth. "Don't you know I'm in charge around these parts?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just exploring, I will get out of your way." Y/n smiled awkwardly and tried to step around the group.

"Where do you think you're going? I'm not just letting you go." The demon stepped in front of her again.

"Yeah!" One of the other demons yelled.

"So, what are you going to give us?"

The group started to get uncomfortably close. Some started even pulling at her cloak.

"Leave me alone! Stop it!" Y/n looked around in horror in the hopes of finding help but everyone ignored it. She had to remember, she was in hell now and this was normal here.

Just as she lost hope, someone intruded.

"Leave the girl alone fuckers!" The demon had white hair all over his body, had six arms, and had one white and one black eye. "Or I'll fucking kill you!" He held up two guns.

"Then do it, cowardly SLUT!" One yelled.

As soon as he heard it bullets went flying, some of them barely missed her.

"You alright?" He held out a hand. "The name's Angel Dust."

"Y/n", she smiled, "does stuff like this happen often here?"

"Yeah, you'll learn how to defend yourself." Angel put the guns away and quickly fixed his hair. "Which way were you going, love?"

"I don't really know. I was just looking around, exploring."

"Then I have to show you the best places to party. Come on!"

Zestial was sitting through a painfully long meeting. The overlords of the newer VVV-group were picking fights with the others. There was an especially strong tension between Vox and Alastor. Subjects that normally took two minutes to discuss, took now ten.

Zestial decided to stay out of most of it, they weren't worth his time and the headaches that would be caused by arguing with them. He wondered what Y/n was doing, knowing her, she was probably bored out of her mind, dramatically laying down on the couch in woeful self-pity. He smiled at the thought.

"What has you smiling so, Zestial?" Alastor asked, putting everyone's attention on the spider demon.

"Doth thee knoweth the declaring curiosity hath killed the cat?" Zestial asked.

The Radio demon's smile widened. "Only if the cat got caught but if you don't want to tell us then so be it."

He wasn't sure why he had reacted that way. It's true that Zestial was worried about people finding out he was harbouring an angel but this seemed to be an overreaction. Why was he so overprotective of the girl? Had he already grown fond of her? No, he shouldn't be. The spider demon only needed her for his own agenda, that's the only reason he's protecting her.

The meeting took another two hours, when it was finally finished. Zestial and Carmilla swiftly made their way to her mansion. Zestial entered the common room, shocked to find it empty.

"Y/n, where art thou?" He asked, maybe she was hiding somewhere or she made up another ridiculous activity. "Y/n!"

He didn't get an answer. The two overlords started searching around the room. When there was no sign of her, they looked around the rest of the mansion, still nothing.

Zestial looked up, seeing the open window. She wouldn't have.. No! She would, she definitely would.

"That insolent angel."

1 Corinthians 10:19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.10:22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

An Idol can be a musician and actor or money or whatever you idolize pay attention the music industry refers to them as idols as well as Hollywood

Money

Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

2 Corinthians 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to (one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ).

[bookoformon]

3 Nephi, Chapter 14. "The Well Weathered House."

Jesus commands: Judge not; ask of God; beware of false prophets—He promises salvation to those who do the will of the Father—Compare Matthew 7. About A.D. 34. "Glared."

1 And now it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words he turned again to the multitude, and did open his mouth unto them again, saying: Verily, verily, I say unto you, Judge not, that ye be not judged.

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother: Let me pull the mote out of thine eye—and behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

6 Give not that which is aholy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

7 Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

8 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.

9 Or what man is there of you, who, if his son ask bread, will give him a stone?

10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?

11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

12 Therefore, all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, ado ye even so to them, for this is the law and the prophets.

13 Enter ye in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, which leadeth to destruction, and many there be who go in thereat;

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore, by their fruits ye shall know them.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall aenter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.

22 Many will asay to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name, and in thy name have cast out devils, and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them: I never knew you; depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

24 Therefore, whoso heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a arock—

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them not shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand—

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell, and great was the fall of it.

Why did the Prophet include these chapters from the Book of Matthew in his Midrash? They are incomparable in spirituality, that is why. Moses (circa > 700 BCE) did not openly discuss corruption of the sort Jesus (5 BCE-30 CE) encountered when He came in the flesh.

Moses did not know about Rome, conscription of the kind Rome instituted, he had not encountered the immense numbers of poor persons, sick persons, or democracies.

Jesus saw all of these things as did the Disciples and the above text is the result. Just as God nurtures the creation and ensures all that lives has what it needs, the government is here to ensure civilization safely and equitably manufactures and delivers upon all humanity needs to be comfortable and content. We do not need to be evil, corrupt, lie, cheat, steal, or be violent to manage the operations of a civilization.

Plenty of people have entered politics and industry and become wealthy without causing harm to others or to the world. These are the persons we want to encourage.

Corruption on the other hand, Jesus reveals will bring all of our houses down and the persons responsible for it, he warns are going to hell.

*Moses is not mentioned in the Books of Amos or Isaiah, circa 800 BCE) the first scripts written in the Tanakh, the Jewish Spiritual Library. The man we know as Moses was definitely born after this.

Scripture of the Day January 18, 2024 (edited and resubmitted): LIFE, LIVE, LIVING, LIVETH from the ‘Gospel of John’ [PART 1]

In 1952, a missionary to the migrant camps in Arizona, Miss Freda Cassins; along with a student from the Arizona Bible Institute, started a club for the youth in our area. It was called the ‘ETERI CLUB’; Greek 'eteri' meaning ‘others’. One of the projects to earn points, was to read thru the Gospel of John five times; each time underlining one of these words: LIFE, LIGHT, LOVE, KNOW AND BELIEVE. Today’s scripture will be first part of a ‘Scripture of the Day’ series in John with the word LIFE (including ‘LIVE’, ‘LIVING’, ‘LIVETH’).

John 1:4 In him was LIFE; and the LIFE was the light of men.

John 3:15-16 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal LIFE; For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting LIFE.

John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting LIFE: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see LIFE; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

John 4:10-11 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee LIVING water. The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that LIVING water? John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting LIFE. John 4:36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto LIFE eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. John 4:50-53 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way. And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son LIVETH. Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son LIVETH: and himself believed, and his whole house.

John 5:24 -26 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting LIFE, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto LIFE. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall LIVE; for as the Father hath LIFE in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have LIFE in himself;

Check back again for the second part of a series: Gospel of John scriptures with words 'LIFE' and 'LIVE'. The Lord be magnified! (Psalm 40:16)

Open Heavens For Teens 29th December 2023 – Ask

The RCCG Open Heaven For Teens

The Topic of Teenagers Open Heavens for FRIDAY 29TH DECEMBER 2023 Is “Ask”

Read: Matthew 7:7-11 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If 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? Memorise: Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

TEENS OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FRIDAY 29TH DECEMBER 2023

God has much to give His children, but sometimes, we don’t have what it takes to receive from Him. When God was about to change the situation of the widow of the late prophet in 2 Kings 4:1-7, Elisha asked her to borrow empty vessels and pour a bit of oil into all of them. Miraculously, the oil did not stop flowing until they were all filled. I believe that if she had gotten more containers, they would all have been filled. The story of Elijah and Elisha is another remarkable one. Theologians have reported that while Elijah did seven miracles in his lifetime, Elisha performed fourteen outstanding miracles. When Elijah was to be taken away, he asked Elisha to make his request. Elisha requested a double portion of his master’s anointing, and he got it. I once asked God to give me the double portion of the anointing on Elisha, Peter, Paul, and our Lord Jesus Christ but He said I was asking for trouble because people would not allow me to rest. You are not foo young to covet spiritual gifts and thirst for the power of the Holy Spirit. KEY POINT: You are not too young to have spiritual gifts. Ask, and you will be given.

Matthew 18

 

1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who* is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

8 Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee*: it is better for thee to enter into* life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

9 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always* behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

13 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you*, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but* if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

Prayer That Obtains

“So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. — Luke 11:9

There are many conditions for true prayer. For instance, it must be earnest. Sometimes we know we are on the line of God’s purposes when we may dare to be necessary. Prayer must be offered in the Name of Christ, i.e., it must be in harmony with the nature of Christ, which was devoted to the glory of God and the blessing of men. That Name will eliminate the ingredient of selfishness which will mar any prayer by whomsoever offered. Prayer must also be based on some promise of God, which is presented to Him as a check or note given to a bank.

All these are steps to the faith that obtains, for it is, after all, not prayer but faith that brings promises. That is why our Lord lays so much stress on receiving. Much of our prayer fails because we forget that He said, “Everyone that asketh, receiveth”; and again, “All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye have received them, and ye shall have them” (Mar 11:24).

So far as one can describe the process, it seems something after this fashion. The soul reverently kneels before God, glorifying and praising Him for His greatness and goodness. It is conscious of needing some exceptional gift which is promised. In the Name of Christ, it presents the request with the confidence of a child. With the earnestness of desire and speech, it unfolds the reasons why the gift sought is so necessary. But it does not leave prayer at this point to go away in uncertainty as to what the issue shall be. By an act of the spirit, the suppliant seems to receive the spiritual or even the temporal gift; and realizes that it has received, that the special grace has been imparted, to be discovered and used under the stress of need, that the temporal gift has also been received. However, it may be kept back until the precise moment when it can be delivered, in much the same way as a present may be purchased long before the time of handing it to its destined possessor (1Sa 1:15, 1Sa 1:18, 1Sa 1:27).

This is what Christ meant by “receiving,” It has a powerful effect on prayer because it makes it much more definite. It leads to praise because we can thank God for His gift. You must take as well as pray.

Prayer

We rejoice that our Saviour ever lives to intercede as our High Priest and Mediator. Through the rent veil, let our prayers ascend to Thee mingled with the fragrance of His merit in whom Thou art ever pleased. Amen.

Matt 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Ask for Answers to prayers, Seek a Solution to our problems, Knock for Knowledge and understanding! The door to happiness and peace and contentment in the Holy Ghost is too often unused. We are constantly knocking on doors that will lead us into the wrong houses! We have not because we ask not... A small portion of a scripture from James' message to some folks who had their priorities messed up and their motives all wrong. Their petitions and desires were based upon their own selfish lusts and ambitions instead of godly desires! James 1:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Jesus stands at the door and knocks... wondering if anyone will answer. He comes in and he brings own groceries; Living water, the bread of life, and just wants to sit and dine with us. We can thank him for what we have and tell him all our problems and he has all the answers and solutions to every petition and need! We want his answers and solutions but we want them our way. We aren't at Burger King! We need to learn to humble ourselves under his rule and thank him for his grace. James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Psalms 10:17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: He knows our every need, and he knows what is best for us. Ask for his answers, seek his solutions, knock at the doors of his knowledge and understanding, and his grace will overflow our cups! Maybe we need to stop our knocking, listen at the door of our heart, and our answer may be standing just outside. Matt 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. https://www.instagram.com/p/CkIrg-cAPxZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ministering......Glory E Emi

Good afternoon everyone. It is an honour and a great privilege to minister to this body of Christ.

I humbly give honour and appreciation to Daly UN Ministry for this privilege. People of God, I celebrate you.

I want to talk on God's mercy.

A lot of us believes that because, we are serving God..everything we have received is because of our self-efforts in serving God.

But the Lord said in:

Rom.9.15 - For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

Rom.9.16 - So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

• What does this mean?

Far from our believe that is because we are serving in one capacity that is why we have enjoyed God's peace and all round rest from our enemies, divine health and divine provision.

If we look around: there are a lot of men of God being persecuted heavily, have zero amount in their accounts, are on their hospital beds of chronic health challenges, looking for spouses everywhere. Why?. Because mercy has not located that area of their life.

When mercy locates a particular aspect of our life, that challenge we are facing in that area is over.

The bible says in Psalm 90:14, "Oh satisfy us with your mercy early, so that we may be glad and rejoice for the rest of our days"

What does this mean, when God satisfy us with His mercy: what will not make us glad and rejoice is removed from our lives.

What will not satisfy us, like lack, wretchedness, delay, stagnation, unrelenting persecution and attack, rejection, failure e.t.c God will remove as we continue to pray for His mercy and doing the needful(binding, warfare prayers, praise and thanksgiving).

• How Do Become A Recipient of the Mercy Of God?

The bible says God promises to show mercy on these set of people:

2Sam.22.26 - With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.

Ps.18.25 - With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright;

• Part of being merciful is:

1. Forgiving others (forgiving even enemies)

2. Being a giver to God's work and to your men of God that God has placed to be a Shepherd or mentor to you

3. Helping others(not helping others foolishly but by the wisdom of God)

4. Prayer for others

5. Godly counsel to others

• Mercy Can Expire

How do mercy expire.

1. Taking God for granted always e.g disobedience to the instruction of the Holy Spirit always

2. Wallowing intentionally in sin

Matthew 7:7-8;

Verse 7, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you:

Verse 8, " For everyone that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

When you pray for mercy, God will pour His rain of mercy on one.

Matthew 7:7-8

Verse 7, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you:

Verse 8, " For everyone that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

When you pray for mercy, God will pour His rain of mercy on one.

Let Us Pray: Father we thank you for your word today, let your word establish your will in our lives in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen

Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. 24Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. 28And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

Jude 1:10, KJV Note : The word "brute" means to be destitute of reason in Greek. In other words, because they lack the Spirit of God, and must therefore rely upon their human wisdom, they view our Christian beliefs as foolishness: "In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them." 2 Corinthians 4:4, KJV "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Corinthians 2:14, KJV [To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.] The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.
