The Christian life involves a growing depth of experience of and appreciation for the Lord Christ, a growing appetite to be like him. This issues in a spirit of prayer to which wonderful assurances are attached. Here we consider a particular promise about prayer, that the believer should ask as he wills, and it will be done to him; then a particular condition for such prayer, that it must come from one who abides in Christ and has Christ's word abiding in him; finally, there is a particular pursuit in prayer, a wonderful circularity in which the man who is in Christ wants more of Christ and gets more of Christ.
