month ago I opened up my bible in boredom trying to see if the lord had a word for me. Well Black Justin Morneau Jersey , it just so happened that I landed in first kings the page with chapter three right there just staring me in the face. So I thought, "Alright God lets see what word you have for me today." and I began to read first kings chapter three. It didn't take long until I got to the part about how God came to King Solomon in a dream and said, "Ask what I shall give thee".

I remember thinking, "Wow, Solomon is a very lucky man!". because he thought to ask God for wisdom to judge God's people righteously instead of wealth and success for himself. "If only God came to me and asked me that question".

1 Kings 3:10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

I'd bet when you was a kid there was a time when you imagined that you had a wish from a genie Black Nolan Arenado Jersey , I know I did. And let me guess, that wish was probably for all the money in the world or to be the richest person in the world, am I right?

But now that you're all grown up you can clearly see that all the money in the world will not solve any of your problems but will most likely end up creating a whole lot more problems (dealing with sin) for you to deal with.

1 Kings 3:13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.

Ain't that something? Solomon not only got what he asked for but also got riches and honour without asking for it. I thought, "Man Black Jhoulys Chacin Jersey , what do I have to do to get God to come to me in a dream?!".

About a week later I was doing the same thing looking for another word from God, but this time I was using a different bible. Was it coincidence that I just so happen to land on the exact same page with first kings chapter three on it? This time I thought, "This can't just be an accident the lord must be really trying to tell me something".

So I thought about it for a little while and didn't think no more about it until a few days ago when I was thinking about what I should include in this very article that I am writing to you right now.

The Holy Spirit brought to my attention what Jesus said in Matthew 21:22, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing Black Matt Belisle Jersey , ye shall receive".

The Holy Spirit said, "that was the same as Him saying ask what I shall give thee", like He had once told Solomon a long, long time ago.

Then I remembered a verse in James 4:3, "Ye ask, and receive not Black Michael Cuddyer Jersey , because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts".

But it didn't stop there the Holy spirit explained to me the prayer of faith by reminding me about James 2:17, "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone".

But I was still a little bit confused so I asked God Black Carlos Gonzalez Jersey , "what is the work that must be done if someone asks you for something?". And he said, "The prayer is the work and the believing you receive is the faith". Thus we have the term the prayer of faith, "duh, I should have known that". I thought to myself.

But before this happened there was an incident when I was sleeping and the holy spirit whispered in my ear.

Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

What?, I hadn't heard or read that verse in at least a year or two. "Where was it now, if I'm not mistaken I think it was psalms 37:5". No it was psalms 37:4. Close enough for me since they both coincide with each other.

So Black Troy Tulowitzki Jersey , What is the point that God wanted me to get so I could tell you about it?

Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

We know that since God did this for Solomon He will do the same for you because He is not a respecter of persons.
