Keep Crying Out
But our world is broken. If you ask God to use you in the lives of other people, if you ask God to give you the ability to lay up treasure in heaven, he will answer. 1 John 5:14 says if we ask according to his will, he hears us. I’m not so sure about asking him for money or wealth or even healing by themselves. But I do know Jesus also promised us in Luke 11:9, “ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you.” And each of those words is the equivalent of “ask and keep asking,” “seek and keep seeking,” and “knock and keep knocking.”
Jesus is in the business of making himself known. He was approaching Jericho on his way to the cross. But because this person kept asking, Jesus asked him what he wanted and then he healed the man. I wonder how many other blind people in Jericho didn’t speak up. I wonder how many didn’t act like they had nothing to lose.
