The Prayer Hinge

Tuesday. Matt. 7: 7-14.

We read about “ask,” “seek,” “knock,” and the definite results. It sounds beautiful, easy, thus far. But there are always conditions. We all want results. And he wants us to have the results. That is why he tells us so plainly how to live so that our prayers will gd and find and open. The prayer hinges on the life. The life hinges on obedience. Obedience hinges on a set purpose and his grace.
