Examining the Scriptures to day, Thursday, February, Eighteenth, twenty twenty.

2
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:10.070
Keep on asking and it will be
given you. Keep on seeking and you

3
00:00:10.189 --> 00:00:13.550
will find. Keep on knocking and
it will be open to you. Luke

4
00:00:13.589 --> 00:00:17.789
eleven nine. To receive the help
of Holy Spirit, we must pray for

5
00:00:17.910 --> 00:00:23.739
it with persistence. Luke eleven thirteen. Jesus illustration at Luke Eleven five to

6
00:00:23.780 --> 00:00:27.899
nine helps us to see why Jehovah
Will Give Us Holy Spirit. The man

7
00:00:28.059 --> 00:00:32.259
in the illustration wanted to be a
good host. He felt compelled to serve

8
00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:36.329
food to his late night visitor,
but had nothing to offer him. Jesus

9
00:00:36.329 --> 00:00:40.770
said that the neighbor responded because of
the man's bold persistence in asking for bread.

10
00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:45.409
What was Jesus Point? If an
imperfect human is willing to help a

11
00:00:45.450 --> 00:00:49.810
persistent neighbor, how much more so
will our kind heavenly father help those who

12
00:00:49.850 --> 00:00:54.840
persistently ask him for Holy Spirit?
Therefore, we can pray with confidence that

13
00:00:54.920 --> 00:01:00.280
Jehovah will respond to our urgent request
for Holy Spirit. Psalm's ten, seventeen,

14
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.590
Psalm's sixty six, colon nineteen.
We can be sure that, in

15
00:01:03.709 --> 00:01:07.790
spite of Sadan's relentless efforts to defeat
us. We will be victorious.
