The Gospel of Matthew - Ask, Search, Knock | Matthew Chapter 7 : 7 - 11

In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus encourages his followers to persistently ask, seek, and knock in prayer. He assures them that those who ask will receive, those who seek will find, and to those who knock, the door will be opened. Jesus uses the analogy of a father giving good gifts to his children to illustrate God's generosity towards those who ask Him. He emphasizes that if earthly fathers, who are imperfect, know how to give good gifts to their children, then how much more will the heavenly Father give good things to those who ask Him. This passage underscores the importance of persistence and trust in prayer, highlighting God's willingness to respond to the sincere petitions of His children.
