Have you ever knocked on a door and wondered if anyone was on the other side?
Prayer can feel that way.
We ask, we seek, we knock, and sometimes all we hear is silence.
But in Luke 11:9–13, Jesus pulls back the curtain on God’s heart.
He reminds us that prayer isn’t a gamble, it’s a guarantee because our Father is generous, faithful, and never tired of hearing from His children.
In this episode of Sunday Renewal, we continue our Teach Us Again series and discover what Jesus really meant when He said, Ask, and it will be given. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Why Jesus commands us to keep asking, seeking, and knocking
✅ How God’s generosity shows up in the certainty of His response
✅ The promise behind “good gifts” and what that means for your prayers
If you’ve ever felt like your prayers were wasted words, this message will remind you that God is not reluctant—He is generous, and He is listening.
