Read along.

Matthew 7:7: 'Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.'

Three verbs. In Greek, all present continuous — keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking.

Prayer isn't a one-time request. It's persistent pursuit.

Jesus assumes you'll get answers. That's not a guarantee of everything you want — it's a promise that God responds.

The closed door isn't the final word. Keep knocking.
