Daily Devo - John 15:7a

7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

John 15:7

Jesus makes a promise in this passage. If we remain in Him and in His Words, we can ASK WHATEVER WE WISH, AND IT WILL BE DONE. How can Jesus make such a promise?

One of my favorite passages is Psalm 37:4 which says “Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires/wishes of your heart.” The secret to ‘getting what we wish’ is wising for the right things. As our hearts align with Jesus and His Words, our desires/wishes do too. So, we ask for things that are in keeping with what Jesus would want for us.

What would that be like? To only want good things and to receive everything you ask for? That is an amazing promise and a life worth pursuing. And, let’s face it, if Jesus said it, IT IS TRUE!!!

PRAY and ask God to help you believe this promise. Ask God to align your heart with His heart so you desire/wish for good things!
