  • What does your prayer life reveal about your perspective of God?
  • Most of our prayer problems stem from theological troubles.

Your Requests (7:7-8)

  • Prayer is knowing who to seek regarding the most important matters in life.
  • You ought to be willing to ask, seek, and knock because your Father is eager to answer, reveal, and open.
  • God has never once heard a prayer request that intimidated Him.

Your Father (7:9-11)

  • If you trust the Father heart of God, you will never doubt what He does for you.
  • Jesus warned us not to settle for similar substitutes that will never satisfy.
  • No matter what it is, if God gives it, you can rest assured it is for your good.
