Mark 11:

When we pray and ask, we are to pray according to God's will, asking that HIS will prevail, regardless, remembering that God will ALWAYS answer our prayers for what we need, and not necessarily for what we "want", for as it is written, if we ask wrongly, He will not answer.

Reminds me of this verse:

"Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts." ~James 4:3

Now we move on to the book of Luke, the 3rd book of the New Testament.

Luke 1:

How precious is THAT??!! That the angel Gabriel comes, specifically to Zechariah, to tell him of the good news, that His wife will be with child,m and his name will be called John.

Luke 3:

THIS is ASTOUNDING!!! Here we have the entire lineage of Jesus!!!

"And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli, Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Janna, which was the son of Joseph, Which was the son of Mattathias, which wasthe son of Amos, which was the son of Naum, which was the son of Esli, which was the son of Nagge, Which was the son of Maath, which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Semei, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Juda, Which was the son of Joanna, which was the son of Rhesa, which was the son of Zorobabel, which was the son of Salathiel, which was the son of Neri, Which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Addi, which was the son of Cosam, which was the son of Elmodam, which wasthe son of Er, Which was the son of Jose, which was the son of Eliezer, which was the son of Jorim, which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim, Which was the son of Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David, Which was the son of Jesse, which was the son of Obed, which was the son of Booz, which was the son of Salmon, which was the son of Naasson, Which was the son of Aminadab, which wasthe son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda, Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor, Which was the son of Saruch, which was the son of Ragau, which was the son of Phalec, which was the son of Heber, which was the son of Sala, Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the sonof Lamech, Which was the son of Mathusala, which wasthe son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan, Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God." ~Luke 3:23-38

I did not know the name of Joseph's father (Heli).

What an awesome study!

Precious.

Amen!

Luke 7:

"And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment." ~Luke 7:37-38

Precious.
