Verse of the Day

A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.

Ask, seek, knock

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:”

Read in context Explain

Today's insight

Jesus invites you into an active, persistent relationship with God through three simple actions: "Ask," "seek," and "knock." Each step draws you closer, moving from speaking your need to actively searching, and finally standing right at the door. You are met with a clear promise: as you reach out, God responds, assuring that "it shall be opened unto you."

Reflect

What is the one thing you need to honestly ask of God today, rather than trying to carry it alone?

Prayer

Lord, teach me to come to You with an open and trusting heart. Help me to ask without fear, to seek Your presence daily, and to keep knocking with patient faith. Amen.
