1 | "Ask and you shall receive" | Matt 7:7 | gracechild | 57678 | ||
I wonder if someone here could shed a little light on the subject of, "Ask and you shall receive"? Many people of great Faith have asked and trusted God for a physical healing that was never granted. To tell them, they lacked enough Faith seems to not only judge their relationship with God but it also makes no allowance for the fact that God's Divine plan for them may have been a spiritual healing rather than a physical one. Faith moves mountains (it would seem) only if that be within the Divine Will. (which is still always BEST for us) Should we not be careful in telling others that their lack of healing was due to a lack of Faith? I don't see God as someone who answers prayers dependent upon great faith or little faith but upon His loving mercy toward all His children. Sometimes,this means not the physical healing asked for but rather a journey out of pain and into eternal bliss. "Ask and you shall receive"....please comment? Hopefully several of you can help me understand this a little better? Am I Scripturally off-base here? His still learning grace child, Toni |

2 | What does the Lord's prayer mean when it | Ps 23:1 | gracechild | 54712 | ||
As a new christian, I am hoping that my question does not seem "stupid". The Lord's prayer says, "And do not lead us into temptation" (Matt 6:13) I thought that Satan was the one who leads us into temptation and perhaps God "allows" it as a testing of our faith. Can anyone here help me to understand this better or point out in what way this is meant to be understood if I have interpreted it incorrectly? Appreciate your help. His grace child, Toni |
