Ask Anything In Jesus’ Name
“If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.” (John 14:14 NASB) Jesus tells us to ask anything in His name and He will do it. Can that actually be true? Jesus is the name by which we get an audience with God, we are saved in that name, and prayers...
You Can’t Pay for God’s Blessings
But he [Elisha] said, As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused. (2 Kings 5:16) If we read this scripture in context, we’ll find that Naaman wanted to pay Elisha for his healing. People...
