"Keep on asking and it will be given you; keep on seeking and you will find; keep on knocking [reverently] and [the door] will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7 AMP
There are a lot of times when we ask for something out of emotion, (excitement, depression, anger, joy, fear, doubt, etc.,), that is why I believe this verse tells us to keep on asking, keep on seeking, and keep on knocking, because once we settle down from emotion, we will probably realize that what we ask for is pretty darn absurd, (dangerous or damaging for our lives), and we will immediately stop praying for it. If God were to give us everything we asked for the first time we asked, then we would surely want to give a lot of it back, right?! However, when God sees and hears us continually asking, continually knocking, continually seeking, not only does it show Him that we are truly serious, but it gives us time to fine tune our wants into wants that are good and God-approved, and gives us time to refrain from wants that could damage, or hinder, our lives.
So, if you think that God doesn't hear you, or see your heart, He does! He knows exactly what to give you! However, before He does, He wants you to be asking, seeking, knocking for the same thing, otherwise you may not end up with the best for you life. So, pray consistently about what you are asking, seeking, and knocking for, and I believe that you will get to a point where you know in your heart that what you are asking, seeking, and knocking for, is exactly what God wants to give you. Then, it will be at that very moment, the moment you pray for what God has waiting for you, your wish will come flooding into your life, filled with His all-powerful light and blessing, and no forces of darkness will ever be able to take it away from you. Praise God - Hallelujah!!
