Hello, dear friends, welcome to our site in the name of Jesus Christ. Today we will look at What Does The Bible Say About Asking God For Help? If you like today’s post then definitely comment and share with others.
Dear friends our God is a living God. He will not harm His righteous people, He hears them and helps them. He never forsakes His people. And when Jesus was on this earth He said we have to ask, we have to knock at the door and God will make the way before us and also answer and open the door (Matthew 7:7-8).
When we ask God for help, sometimes God is slow to answer, but it does not mean that God will not give. Because God sometimes tests us and it may happen that the desire is not right for us at that time, so God delays until our right time. That doesn’t mean we stop asking God, we have to keep asking God through prayer, then surely one day God will fulfill our desire.
Dear friends, sometimes our requests to God are such that it is not his will, even if our requests are not fulfilled. So the Bible says if we ask God’s will, Then he will hear us and we should have full confidence in this (1 John 5:14-15).
Dear friends, we must remember that whenever we ask God for anything we ask in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ because there is power in this name and Jesus Christ told us that if we ask anything in his name he will grant us (John 14:13-14).
Let us now look at more Bible verses below that will encourage us to ask God and trust Him.
