Giver of Good Gifts Matthew 7:7-11; James 1:17

God our Father R.T. France God’s care is of course far more than even the best human parent can give, and it is never less.

Every good thing originates with God No bad thing originates with God Our Father loves to give good gifts God our Father 1 Corinthians 4:7 What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

Our Father loves to give good gifts God our Father D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones I thank God that He is not prepared to do anything that I may chance to ask Him...looking back, I say that I am profoundly grateful to God that He did not grant me certain things for which I asked, and that He shut certain doors in my face.

Our Father loves to give good gifts God our Father James 4:3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.

Our Father loves to be asked God our Father James 4:2 You do not have because you do not ask.

Our Father knows what is best God our Father Matthew 26:39 And Jesus fell on His face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.”

Our Father knows what is best God our Father John 14:13–14 “Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.”

Our Father never withholds His best God our Father “Abraham went out, not knowing whither he went; but he did know with whom he went.”

Our Father never withholds His best God our Father Luke 11:13 “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?”

Our Father never withholds His best God our Father Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?

Our Father never withholds His best God our Father

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones If you should ask me to state in one phrase what I regard as the greatest defect in most Christians lives I would say that it is our failure to know God as our Father....

Thank God for His gifts Persist in asking, seeking and knocking Give like your heavenly Father gives Application God our Father
