Devo Fuel: {Abide in Me}
"If you abide in me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you" (John 15:7)
One lesson that Jesus would teach us is to have confidence that God answers every true petition and to pray without ceasing. Skeptics may question it, humanists may deny it, and intellectuals may ridicule it. Yet here is Christ's own promise: "If you abide in me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you" (John 15:7) ... Does he promise to give us anything we want, if we just keep asking? No. God loves us too much to answer prayers that are foolish or might harm us ... The Bible promises, "No good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless" (Psalm 84:11).
Trust that promise with all your soul and feel the power of prayer.
