“ And
Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do
for you?”
If you
recognize God in your midst and you reveal your insufficiency,
(cry out), Jesus the Christ will answer and say, “What will ye that I should do
for you?”
Don’t
think it unusual that Jesus answers the plea of a contrite heart. Jesus seeks the call of faith to reveal
Himself.
Listen to
the words of scripture.
2
Chronicles 16:9a
“For the
eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself
strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him...”
Matthew
7:7-11
“And I say
unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and
it shall be opened unto you.
V8 For
every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that
knocketh it shall be opened.”
V9 Or what
man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
V10 Or if
he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
V11 If ye
then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto you children, how much more
shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?”
Hebrews
11:6
“But
without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must
believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek
Him.”
“Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.”
Faced
with the question, “What will ye that I should do for you?” What would your request be?"
