Psalm 131:1-3 & Matthew 7:7-11 (ESV) - Since we returned to our sermon series on Matthew at the end of January, we’ve spoken about prayer more than once. Including the sermon coming this Sunday, three of the last eight sermons have been about prayer. We’ve been reading passage by passage through Matthew, so we’re only preaching what he wrote down. But why talk about prayer so much in such a relatively brief section? What do we still need to learn about prayer that we haven’t already seen? The answer is certainty. Jesus wanted His disciples to know that they could have certainty that their prayers would be answered. They could have certainty that God loved them and would give them good things. When we read these words on Sunday, may the Lord give us that same certainty when we pray too.
