ASK HIM< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>1 Samuel 16:1-13<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Through the pages of the Bible, God has proved Himself as a God that answers whenever His children call on Him to ask. As a believer and bible student, you have disproved God many times as God that does not answer by not calling whenever there is a need for. At every time, in every situation that God is approached for an intervention, it is a demonstration of knowing God, a demonstration of trusting God, it is a demonstration of submission and a demonstration of fearing God. Jesus declared in Matthew 7:7, \u00d2Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you.\u00d3<\/i><\/b> What Jesus was saying is for them and it is also for us that are here now. Many times, instead of asking, we resolve into fear, complaining, questioning, or giving God excuses that do not count or excuses that does not have any base. Samuel once, was sent by God to go and anoint David as the new king while king Saul was still active and reigning. \u00d2Now the LORD said to Samuel, \u00d2How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons.\u00d3 2 And Samuel said, \u00d2How can I go? If Saul hears it he will kill me.\u00d3(1 Samuel 16:1-2) But the LORD said, \u00d2Take a heifer with you, and say, \u00d4I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.\u00d5\u00d3<\/i><\/b> Samuel could have shown concern for his life by giving excuses and reasons to God for him not to go, he could have entered into complaining. There was no documentation that Samuel was afraid or shaken by God\u00d5s command. Samuel responded to God by asking for direction of how to go for God\u00d5s command. Samuel asked God saying, \u00d2How can I go\u00d3 Samuel knew his God that he was serving as the Master in charge of all and he was not going to question or deny God. As a result he asked and God answered. How do you get what you want from God? Do you get it through complain or fear? Questioning will not move God\u00d5s hand but it is capable of removing you from under His hand. God is a faithful God; He will not fail you when you ask. Go ahead and ask Him and you will make a headway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
