MArkus,
No, I am not saying that it is "preferable not to ask" for comforts. What I am saying is that if I am living within God's will then I can ask anything. I am saying that the Spirit helps me with such things, and I am also saying that sometimes the answer is no. Do I know that before I ask?
Paul asked God three times to remove whatever problem he had(2 Cor. 12:7-9). I wonder if God told him no the first time?
But,in asking for pleasures, how should I discern that?
You said earlier,
Surely God can understand the desire to provide for our families and secure their futures?
and I asked you this:
And what would this look like , Mark?? Example:
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Take, oh lets say the father of a Christian family in the Sudan, today.... how should he interpret that scripture, if he is asking the same question that you asked?
Can you answer this for me?
I await with (is it bated or baited) breath? :o)
