Matt7v7-11: "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish,will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
Luke 11v9-13: "So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will hegive him a serpent instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"
YOU CANNOT GET ANY BAD THING FROM YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER WHEN YOU ASK AND SEEK HIM FOR IT!
If you ask Him for the Holy Spirit, you will get the Holy Spirit!
If you ask Him for spiritual gifts, you will get spiritual gifts!
IT IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!
I have written some of the above in BIG letters so that it is absolutely clear so that those suffering from spiritual myopia might grasp this reality!
