Anything? Really, anything? That
is just what Jesus said, anything.
The sky is the limit—and beyond that is Heaven. Limitless heaven. Time is
eternal in heaven. The new city of Jerusalem does have a size mentioned in
Revelation 21:16-17, which is about 1,400 miles by 1,400 miles square. That’s
pretty big—and we will be there one day to worship God forever. But heaven may
go on forever—beyond our imagination.
So just for today, what will you ask of Jesus since He has promised that
if we ask anything in His name, He
will do it? Will you ask for riches, or like Solomon will you ask for wisdom? Now God gave Solomon wisdom and very great
discernment and breadth of mind, like the sand that is on the seashore. 1
Kings 4:29. Solomon asked for wisdom. Whatever…we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the
things that are pleasing in His sight. 1 John 3:22. Remember to watch your
motives. You ask and do not receive,
because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.
James 4:3.
RSVP: Ask away in Jesus name. It is not a formula for prayer or success…just
a promise that He will do it. How will you respond to Him today?
Prayer~ Dear God, You wrote in 1 John 3:22… and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments
and do the things that are pleasing in His sight. May the things I say and do
be pleasing to You and in line with Your commandments. Please give me my
heart’s desire…good and restored health for my family and friends, wisdom and
understanding of Your Word, and salvation for the lost within my neighborhood
and community. Deep and abiding love for You and to share with those whom You
have placed around me. Grace to accept the things I cannot change and strength
to live courageously, exalting You as I wait upon You in all things.
Friday’s Feast at the
King’s Table
Ask for the best food ever…well here’s one that pure
fun to make.
Oreo Balls
From Linda Cerny
1 package Oreo cookies, ground up
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
Almond bark
Stir together. Roll into balls and refrigerate until
very firm. Dip in any flavor of melted almond bark. Make a very attractive tray
by using butterscotch, white and chocolate almond bark. You can also drizzle a
contrasting flavor of almond bark on top. For more fun, while the almond bark
is still moist sprinkle with colored sprinkles--in their favorite color--to make the kids and grandkids
extra happy.
Note: When this recipe was first given to my friend, Linda, it was suggested that
she use a meat grinder to grind up the cookies. She didn’t have one so she
tried several other tactics such as a food chopper, rolling pin and the use of
her car. She put the cookies in a Ziploc bag, then a couple of plastic grocery
bags and then a doubled up paper grocery bag and stapled it shut. She took it
out to the garage and placed the bag behind her rear wheel. She started up the
car and slowly drove back and forth over the sack, crushing the Oreos! That was
the best way ever to crush the cookies. Now whenever she makes these cookies,
it keeps her neighbors talking…and laughing! We laugh a lot with Linda. Fun
lady—always busy helping someone. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us.
