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.
If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you
Walk just as He walked
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked - 1 John 2:6.
Abide in love
God is love, and He who abides in love abides in God, and God in him - 1 John 4:16. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7.
Keep His commandments
He who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him - 1 John 3:24.
Bear much fruit
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing - John 15:4, 5.
You will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you
Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart - Psalm 37:4. Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! - Matthew 7:7-11.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Let us abide in You and let Your words abide in us, so that when we ask what we desire, You will do it for us. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
