ASKING AND HAVING (James 4:2)

Honestly, I was not going to think about the answer to prayer I received lately too much any more, but reading the Bible verse Psalm 34:17 in the local paper today, changed my mind. (The Northland Age, Tuesday, May 24, 2016).

Psalm 34:17 says: “The LORD hears his people, when they call to him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles.”

I had “trouble” finding a certain Bible verse. Thinking the verse is in the Gospels, and making every effort to find the verse there, but not finding it, led to some frustration.

Thinking the Lord knows that I am looking for that particular verse, I left it like that … until I got really desperate and called to Him for help and found the portion of Scripture, I was looking for, straight away in the book of Acts.

Here are the verses, which are very important to me at the present time.

Acts 12:21-23 tells us that Herod did not give praise to God and was eaten by worms.

I am glad that the Lord changed my mind and made me see the importance of the answer to that particular prayer, and I hope this post is a blessing.
