Translations:TC 9: How to Pray/54/en

To expect answers to our prayers, we must ask specifically. James says, “You do not have because you do not ask.”  He goes on to explain, “You ask and do not receive because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures” (James 4: 2-3). The Lord Jesus speaks with the authority of God when he says, “If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it” (John 14:14).
