How Much
More
By
Rev. Kenneth E. Hagin
"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?"
(Matt. 7:11).
Would
you, as a parent, plan, purpose, and will for your children to go through
life poverty-stricken, sick, downtrodden, downcast, down-and-out, with
their nose to the grindstone? No! Assuredly not!
My younger brother
had a difficult time getting his education. Our father left when this
brother was only six months old. He graduated from high school during the
Depression by working the 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift at a local cotton mill
and then going to school immediately after work.
In time, this brother
married, had a son, and became a very successful businessman. He said to
me - and I guess this has been a driving force in my brother's life - "I'd
rather let my boy die now than to have it like I had it. But I'm going to
see to it that he doesn't have it rough like I did."
My brother worked hard
to provide a better life for his family than he had known growing up. Just
looking at it from the natural standpoint, he did all this because he
loved them.
And that's what Jesus meant when He said that if natural men know how to
give good gifts to their children, how much more will our loving Heavenly
Father give good things to those who ask Him!
Confession:
Even good natural fathers know how to give good gifts to their children.
How much more will my Father in Heaven give good things to me when
I ask Him?
