Any other instructions? What about asking? Well, that is mentioned by Jesus, in his comparison of evil human fathers and the Heavenly Father. I don't think He meant to imply that if we ask the Father, we'll have to wait a long time, or won't receive what we ask for at all.[/QUOTE]
Matthew 15:22-28 (King James Version)
22And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
28Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
Would you say that she asked more than once?
