Ask, seek and knock

Matthew 7:7-8 7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
Lord Jesus said that ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you Sometimes when we pray, the Lord answers our prayers right away, sometimes the Lord does not answer right away, we need to continue praying until the Lord answers our prayers. We seek until we find, and knock until the Lord opens the door. The parable of the unrighteous judge and the parable of friend at midnight in the Bible both tell us that Lord Jesus wants us to seek until we find, and knock until the door is opened. The Canaanite woman kept asking Lord Jesus to cast out the demon from her daughter, and Lord Jesus said that her faith was great.
