Ask!

I wonder how many people have been disappointed simply because they didn’t pray and ask God for the big things in their hearts. You might say, “Well, God is God. If He wants to bless me, He’ll bless me.” But no, it says in James 4:2, “You have not because you ask not.” So if you’re not asking big, you’re shortchanging yourself.

You will never reach the fullness of your potential if you only pray small prayers. I’m not talking about just making a wish list. I’m talking about asking God for what He’s already promised you. The bible says, “When you walk in God’s ways, you will lend and not borrow. With long life God will satisfy you. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

If you are a believer in Christ there are hundreds of promises that you have every right to ask your heavenly Father to fulfill. Not only that, there are specific dreams and desires that He’s placed in your heart. They didn’t just randomly show up. The Creator of the universe put them in you. Dare to ask big and then watch as God goes to work at bringing those things to pass in your life!
