- Matthew 7:7-8 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
Whether it is among family members, between friends, or between acquaintances, people tell each other about what they want, and make the request earnestly. If that request seems appropriate to the person who hears it at that moment, they get inspired and would accept the request. They then will have the same heart as the person making the request and feel like doing it for them. Next, they become the body of the person who made the request and do them the favor. Whether it in a family between parents and children, between siblings, between friends, or between acquaintances, requests that are made and expressed earnestly become fulfilled in this way.
In the same way, if you earnestly tell and pray to God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son about your wish or things you want, and if that is something appropriate, God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son will hear it, will become moved, and take up the heart of the person who made the request. Then the Trinity take action according to that prayer. When God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son take action, They sometimes do it by commanding the angels, They sometimes do it by commanding people, at times God does it Himself, and at times The Trinity do it by commanding various things in nature such as wind, heat, cold, and other elements and using them as Their workers.
Prayer is ‘a conversation and talking with God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son.’ It is about talking with them and conversing with them. However, ‘conversing earnestly is what prayer is.’ However, at first, you don’t know how to converse or talk with God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son. So you just need to tell Them and talk to Them about your situation and story in detail as you would do with a person. What you do is tell, converse with, and plead with God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son about things you would tell people. About things that would not work out even if you tried them for a year or for ten years… If you tell the Almighty God through about those things through prayer and if they are appropriate, in some cases He will take action as soon as the prayer is finished, and in some cases He only gives you a promise by giving you an answer in your heart and then helps you and resolves your problem [later on] by taking action at the most appropriate time.
Even if you do pray, there is surely a [ right] ‘time’ for it. In other words, there is ‘the time when your prayer will be fulfilled.’ However, even if you did pray, when it comes to things that are not appropriate, God does not accept it. Therefore, that prayer will not get fulfilled. Even if your prayer is appropriate, if you have a sin, God will not accept it because there is a period of punishment due to that sin. Therefore, you must repent of the sin and promise that you will never commit that sin again.
If it is an appropriate prayer, God accepts it. Therefore, that prayer will get fulfilled. However, the prayers are fulfilled according to ‘the time;’ some prayers are fulfilled immediately, some prayers are fulfilled a little later, and some prayers are fulfilled after a long time has passed. Therefore, it is necessary for you to live being thankful until that time, and pray repeatedly while waiting for that time. Then God will not forget it, and you will not forget it either. You must not forget it. Then when God gives it to you according to the time, you will receive it with thankfulness.
The wrong tendency of human beings is this: in the beginning, they wait wishing and praying earnestly. At that time, their thoughts are clear. However, when time passes, they forget; and if the time of the prayer’s fulfillment becomes delayed, they think, ‘I guess it will not work. I guess it’s not appropriate,’ and give up. There is nothing more egregiously unjust than for a human being to live not knowing. Therefore, whatever it may be, you must surely be knowledgeable. Thinking of God as if He were a human being, you must constantly ask Him and tell Him thinking, ‘I told Him through prayer. Did He forget by chance?’ Of course God does not forget. However, if we frequently ask Him and talk to Him, even if He did forget, He will remember it again and do it for us.
God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son are ‘Deities.’ They are ‘Almighty Beings.’ Do not even think that the Divine Beings are far away. The Divine Beings are closer to you than the person who is closest to you. Only the Divine Beings can be with us closely at all times. Therefore, you must always live with the Divine Beings and interact with Them with love. The Divine Beings go closest to a person who loves Them.
The Holy Son told us [the following] about Prayer: “Through prayer, frequently and repeatedly tell [Me] the things that you want. I want to give you the things you prayed for because the time for giving them has come. However, I am unable to give them to you because you have forgotten them. Therefore, someone who is petitioning me must constantly ask for the things that they want. There is a difference between asking for something once and asking for it twice. The more you ask, the more My, the Holy Son’s, heart, God’s heart, and the Holy Spirit’s heart shift. When praying, you must ask to the point that God, the Holy Spirit, and My, the Holy Son’s heart are moved.
God, the Holy Spirit, and I, the Holy Son, possess everything. Therefore, if you ask, We will give it to you. We will give it to you, but we will give you when the ‘condition’ is met. God, the Holy Spirit, and I, the Holy Son, all give only if Our hearts are moved. We give after taking everything into account. We give because they are things We promised. It is because when [We] give you the things you asked for, God, the Holy Spirit, and I, the Holy Son [will] eat, enjoy, and delight in [those things] together with you. If, after you receive them, you love God and I, the Holy Son even more and use them while eating and enjoying together with [Us], then we give even more because We are pleased. Even if you pray, [We] give according to each person’s vessel. When you pray [for something,] time is needed to make that thing [happen.] Therefore, a period of time is needed. The Bible says that you must ask then it will be given to you. Things are almost never given without you asking.”
If, after receiving what you have prayed for, you use it well, They will keep giving to you. Therefore, first, you must do the asking well. Second, be thankful and grateful while waiting for the time when you will receive, and repeatedly ask for the things you have been asking for. Third, Once you have received what you prayed for, you must use it well.
If you receive something from God and the Holy Son but use it only physically as you like, you will rather end up following the path of the fall instead, and will sin. Therefore, you must pray that you will continue to use the things you have received well. Also, while you use the things that you have received, you must use them for believing in God and the Holy Son better, for loving Them and for following the eternal path of life. You must make a promise about how you will definitely live if God and the Holy Son hear your prayer and do it for you. And once you do receive what you prayed for, you must live righteously as you have promised.
