Associations are Important
2 Corinthians 6:14-16 (KJV) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and ...

Hannah Highlights God’s Character and Power
1 Samuel 2:6-10 (KJV) The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.

Prayer Promises
Matthew 7:8 (KJV) For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Most, if not all of us, have seen a painting that pictures Jesus Christ standing outside the church door, knocking from the outside. This posture correlates with the message of this verse.

Open Wide
Psalm 81:10 (KJV) I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
This scripture makes me think of feeding a young toddler. Zoom, zoom comes the train. Or open wide here comes the airplane, you say as you attempt to make the sound of a jet engine coming in for a landing right in the young child’s mouth with a spoonful of food. ...

Ask For What You Want
James 4:2 (KJV) Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
Sometimes it seems overly simple to ask God for what you want, too easy, yet many fail to bring their innermost cares and concerns to God. Our instinct is to get what we want when we want it and leave God out of the picture. God ...
