Sunday Service Live At Awakening Church | Sermon on the Mount - Ask, Seek, Knock | 12.17.23

Welcome to church! Pastor Jordan Boyce encourages us to ask the Lord, seek the Lord and knock in persistence.

We are broadcasting live from Awakening Church in Smithfield, Rhode Island.

====================
🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Ask, seek, and knock — escalate your actions in your approach to God and life.
- We give up too easily, and miss the success that’s just on the other side. The people who won’t take no for an answer don’t end up hearing it often.
- Ask: The simple act of asking can create chances for new possibilities.
- Seek: Anything worth having must be sought after, including God.
- Knock: Persistence! Knocking in persistence infers an obstacle, an opportunity and an opener.
- How long has God been knocking at the door of your heart?

====================
📖 SCRIPTURES
- [Matthew 7:7-11] 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 the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are 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!
- [James 4:2] You do not have, because you do not ask.
- [Proverbs 25:2] It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out.
- [Jeremiah 29:13] You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.
- [Revelations 3:23 ] Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
