		<description><![CDATA[James 4:2  yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

In this passage you see a very important element of prayer, asking. In Matthew 7:7 Jesus told you �Ask, and it shall be given you�. He went on to say in verse 8 �For every one that asketh receiveth�. Christ taught the importance of asking when HE promised you in Matthew 21:22 �And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.�

It is important to ask, but just as important in asking is making sure you are asking for the right thing. James went on to tell you in verse 3 �Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.� Thus it is not only important that you ask but that you ask for the right thing. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus analogized our relationship with God to that of a son asking his father for bread. Jesus explained that a father would not give his son a rock when he asked for bread. Jesus then said in Matthew 7:11 �If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

		<description><![CDATA[Hebrews 11:33c obtained promises,

It takes faith to hear the promises of God and believe that HE will give you that which HE has promised. God does not lie; HIS hand is not slack in performing HIS promises. However, HIS promises do not come on a silver platter; they are obtained by faith.

Some promises are not designed for you to obtain. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob sojourned in the promise land but Joshua received the promise. Daniel understood that the nation of Israel would return home in 70 years but it was Ezra and Nehemiah who obtained the promise. David was promised that Solomon would build God�s temple.
