Yes He knows but He just want us to open our mouth and ask HIM what we desire that is the reason why,he designed the mouth. To back it up read Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me and I will answer you,he want us to call HIM. 1 Like |

Pastor MLS I have a question... Why do we need to ask since he already understand what's on our mind? Can't he just grant our request? Are you also gonna say the same thing concerning someone who is deaf and dumb.. 1 Like |

But why is it that when I ask most times, I don't receive answers. Is there something I am missing? This is disturbing to me, ma. I have been asking God for something since the beginning of this month, but nothing yet. Can you help me with some reasons? 1 Like |

Beautiful message, God knows our heart desires. Just ask and it's shall be given unto you, good measures pressed down, shaken together and running over. Good morning Ma from this side 1 Like |

LordReed: +++ That is not the point. Apart from the joy of communing with one's Heavenly Father in Christ, Jesus the Son... another lesson to be gleaned from prayer is humility. The fact that GOD has made provision for humankind to be reconciled back to Himself through Himself in the person of the Lord Jesus, the Christ - our great High Priest (Hebrews 2:17, 3:1, 4:14-15, 5:5, 6:20, 7)... to be able in faith and Truth to "come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." - Hebrews 4:16... is a big deal!!! +++ "Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time" - 1 Peter 5:6 (James 4:10) |

isaiah4life: Sorry I know I am not pastorM but there was something that happened to me last year October. I was really in need of finances to solve a problem that month and I cried begging God for any help but know what I didn't get the money, I had to borrow but still I didn't lose hope I prayed and thank God for helping me with someone that borrowed me the money. So there I was owning money I couldn't pay but I still believe in God and didn't lose hope. Do you know what happened the next month, I had 6x of that money from an unexpected source, I paid my debt and had more than enough money to do other things. My point is believe in God no matter what even when you feel hopeless and maybe the time you need the thing has passed don't give up, God works in mysterious ways and nobody likes when someone only calls on him when they only need something talk less of God Almighty. 1 Like |

FERNANDEZISBACK: Dear First answer this,if your net worth is 1 trillion, and you came across a crippled beggar, you already know the person needs money and help, but will you help the person without asking for your help? |
Re: God Knows What You Want But You Still Need To Ask! by FERNANDEZISBACK: 11:07am On Mar 25, 2022 |
MARYIAN:But I didn't create the cripple that way..if I knew what's on his mind and know that he was gonna be cripple..why then wouldn't I help him? |

xproducer: The god concept is always needlessly complicated. You have a god that can read minds and knows all but wants to behave like a diva and have you grovel all the time just to have you sycophantically chanting his name. I don't think you critically take a look at these concepts but I understand, you have to accept it to continue to believe it. |

FERNANDEZISBACK: LordReed: He hears our silent prayers so being deaf and dumb ain't no excuse. Adam didn't ask for a wife but God knew he was lonely. What did Adam say after they sinned? It was the woman you gave me. In short, did I ask you for a wife? Now, we need to ask |

PastorMIsBack:Thanks for your input.. pastor MLS but why has God not granted the request of those who've been asking? |
Re: God Knows What You Want But You Still Need To Ask! by Nobody: 12:17pm On Mar 25, 2022 |
FERNANDEZISBACK: He will, if we ask in His will, and if He knows it's in our favour, in His own time. When my former pastor was mistreating me, I prayed every day that He should soften that pastor's heart towards me but God never answered my prayer. I eventually left that Church and within 3 weeks, '1 Minute With Tina' was birthed. If God had answered my prayer, I would have still been in that Church and not be doing what I'm doing today. I thank God for not answering. 1 Like |

PastorMIsBack:So you are saying God answers people prayer at his own will and ease regardless of how dangerous the person's situation is? |
Re: God Knows What You Want But You Still Need To Ask! by Nobody: 12:30pm On Mar 25, 2022 |
FERNANDEZISBACK: Your definition of 'danger' may not be His nor anybody else's. A mama called me several times and kept on leaving messages. "Tina call me it's urgent, it's urgent" I was on the underground where there's no service so couldn't receive her calls. When I came out, I called her back. She said, "my tap is dripping". The way she said, "it's urgent, it's urgent", I thought her house was on fire. |

isaiah4life:the fact that it said ask and it shall be given doesn't literally mean as it seems, just imagine the fact then, "a robber asking for success before an operation " "a man asking for more money to spend lavishly " "a woman praying that her dirty secrets never be found out " so in your own opinion, do you think it's right to answer every single time just because someone asks, God knows what's best for you, what you may ask for sometimes may lead to your end unknowingly to you ,Moses commanded water out of the rock for the Israelites to drink, God answered but let Moses face the consequences, so you should always trust in the Lord, whatever he does is best |

LordReed: --- "Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable." - Psalm 145:3 Intellectualism, and the rebellious, prideful concept of "I've got it all figured out" will get those that rely on such things their just desserts because - "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death" - Proverbs 16:25 Humankind is "but dust and ashes" - Genesis 18:27, but for the grace and mercy of GOD. --- "You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews." - John 4:22 "For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God." - Romans 2:28-29 +++ "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." - Isaiah 55:7-9
