Mark 10:51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
Jesus didn’t ask because he didn’t know ….He asked because the man HAD to ask him.
Mathew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Mathew 13:58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Our unbelief hinders miracles and answer to prayer. Believing Jesus, Is a way to worship/ bless Him. Imagine a relationship that has someone who won’t believe you when you said something important. It would frustrate you to the bone, wouldn’t it?
Then I thought to ask AI what other Bible verses it might add... I queried, "I'm pondering a thread of thought from my understanding of The Bible and also how relationship with God works, Here is a beginning of my thoughts, please add to it with other Bible verses and relational input."
AI's answer: "Your reflection on these Bible verses and their implications for our relationship with God is insightful. Let's continue to explore this concept with additional verses and thoughts:
James 1:5-6: "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind." This verse emphasizes the importance of faith and trust in our prayers.
Matthew 21:22: "And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive." This verse reinforces the idea that faith plays a central role in our relationship with God. Believing in Him and His promises is fundamental to receiving answers to our prayers.
John 14:12-14: "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it." Here, Jesus teaches us that our prayers are closely tied to our faith in Him, and when we pray in His name, God will act.
Hebrews 11:6: "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."Faith is not just the key to answered prayer but also to pleasing
God and deepening our relationship with Him.
Indeed, the concept of faith is a cornerstone of our relationship with God. It's not just about believing in His existence but trusting in His love, His promises, and His goodness. Just as you've mentioned, a relationship with someone who doubts your words can be frustrating, and the same can be applied to our relationship with God. Believing in Him and His Word is an act of worship, trust, and a demonstration of our love for Him. It's through this unwavering faith that we can experience the fullness of His blessings and miracles in our lives.
