"Ask and You Will Receive" | David Marvin

I’m going through a break up right now because we weren’t on the same page about God and it’s tough. Really tough. Trying my best to put my faith in Him. Appreciate any prayers 🙏🏼

[@RachelMaegrace]

Went through that very recently im absolutely praying for you.

When you say not on the same page about God what do you mean by that?

Update?

This message came at the perfect time. I’ve been struggling with letting go of a potential relationship where her and I are unequally yoked. It’s emotionally painful to let go, but God knows what I don’t, and His best is always better than my best. Thank you Pastor.

I definitely can related to this.

[@tylerrauwolf4691]

In the same boat right now!

That must be very painful. I just quit a job and it’s been pretty painful. I go through moments of happiness when I’m watching these sermons but after spending time with my boyfriend I’m back to feeling somewhat sad not knowing what I want to do with my life…it’s like when you leave a job you leave co workers and customers that meant something to you to and I’m sure it’s the same with your girlfriend even if you felt like you were unequally yoked I felt that my job was to.

@@mariahconklin4150 Honestly everything just takes time. I wrote that message 3 months ago. But I can honestly now say, with conviction, that by God's grace, I've let her go, and I feel like myself again. God took away the fear, bitterness and all the insecurities that were filling my heart as a result of not letting go. When you really humble yourself and give it all up to God, that's when He moves. Keep praying!

[@RachelMaegrace]

I have such a fear for my future im praying for clarity and comfort today.

After leaving a toxic job I’m too afraid to ask plus I have a vision of what I want to do but I don’t know if it’s Gods plan for me. 😞 I’m confused because I kept having dreams about leaving my boyfriend which I felt meant to leave my toxic job but in the last dream I was in a white van and someone from church was driving it and I knew my boyfriend had moved but he was close by. I was on Facebook recently and as I was scrolling threw I saw a video of the place I want to work at and saw that their was a white van in the video.

Less is more powerful than people

[@pquarterhorse1]

I think this means match up your needs with the scripture. God is not going to give me a unicorn because I asked for it.

[@darz3829]

Ask and you will receive." So the idea is to ASK the all-knowing God what He needs to do and how to do it? I'm sure He will be glad to know that.

Going to be proposing to my gf of 2 years next weekend. What do yall wish you had done during the planning part/registry?

[@melaniemartin4319]

How about that?🤩🤩🌸🌸

Praying for your success man!

Wish we would’ve paid a for a planner and a venue. We would’ve paid more yes, but avoided having to scrape together all the small details. It’s been very stressful having to find food, find out who can serve the food, find out where to get plates and utensils, where to get drinks, how much drink to get, what to serve the drinks in, etc. pay a planner and they will pull together all the details for you. It’s worth the money.

David's sermon is consistent with the Bible till he starts preaching on the reasons why people don't get what they ask for. Jesus himself is *very* clear on this point. You don't get what you ask for because you lack faith! Mark 11 tells the story of Jesus cursing a fig tree that wasn't bearing fruit when it was not even fruit-bearing season. The next day when Peter noticed the fig tree had withered, he remarked about it. Jesus's response was, "Have faith in God. Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and *does not doubt in his heart,* but believes that what he says *is happening,* it will be granted him. For this reason I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, *believe that you have received them,* and they will be granted to you (LSB, italics added)." Repeatedly through the New Testament Jesus chides his followers for their faithlessness. In Matthew 17 a man brings his son to Jesus for deliverance from a seizure-causing demon that Jesus's disciples were unable to remove. Jesus's response was, “O you unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.” After Jesus removed the demon from the boy, his disciples asked, "Why could we not cast it out?" Jesus answered, "Because of your little faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there, ' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you." Those who fail to preach the necessity of unwavering faith for Christ followers to receive what they ask for have done great damage to the church. They have replaced a powerful interaction with God where miracles are commonplace with a mundane social event for those filling a need to belong. The Bible is clear that God is eager to give us the desires of our hearts. Why? Because He put them there! Please, people, stop blaming God for not giving you what you want. Eradicate your own faithlessness and experience the abundance God has for you!
