How Much More?

Luke 11:10-13 (ESV)

10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. 11 What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; 12 or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”

Whoever believes and says yes to the Lord will be given the Holy Spirit. As sons of the Father, we are to seek Him even more in the intimacy of His inward dwelling. The doors of heaven are open to us to receive the gifts of the bread of heaven. We are to ask for our daily bread. We have not because we ask not. 

We have received His salvation for the asking. We will receive His gifts from heaven for the asking, for our seeking, and for knocking. Our sanctification and pursuit of the mind of Christ opens our hearts to the leading of the Holy Spirit. He will lead us into all truth according to our requests.
