IT IS FAITH TO ASK FOR HELP WITH PURE HEART WHEN YOU NEED IT(1Jn3.16-18)--For a man of God or believer to think and say you are not in faith or your faith is not strong when you ask for help is gross ignorance that has kept many in bo***ge and depression.A FRIEND IS BORN BECAUSE OF ADVERSITY the book of Proverbs saysPrv17.17)-Jesus asked for a boat to preach and He was the strongest man of faith that ever lived,he was bold to ask Zacheus to come down quickly that He would be sleeping in his house that night (Lk19). Jesus asked for a donkey to ride into Jerusalem,Elijah when hungry asked for food from a broke widow and God rewarded the widow greatly in 1kg17.Elisha the prophet under the Spirit inspiration asked the prophet's widow to borrow many empty vessels for her miracle.Jesus told His commissioned apostles that IN EVERY CITY AND VILLAGE they must ask for help to launch their ministry in accomodations and feeding (matt10.1-14,40-42,Lk10.1-7,22.35).Where did we get the idea that it is lack of faith to ask for help when you are in need and you are not a selfish man yourself as long as you are faithful and have a bonafide need.Another thing is that many believers have not fully developed their faith so they may need help from time to timeas they grow because faith growth is not an overnight thing AND IT IS TOUGH TO GROW STRONG FAITH(Act14.22).What God does not like is to take advantage of the generous ones by living selfishly and parasitically as a vampire on the generous ones(Eph4.28,2thes3.10,).God wants us to all work with strong work ethics to be a testimony to others and to have lack of nothing (1the4.11-12,Act20. 35).God will lead the sensitive ones to close up on the lazy believers who are vampires feeding on other Christians because God hates laziness (2the3.10).We are called to be diligent with our work,business and jobs(prov22.29) and be generous to the poor and needy even if your earnings is little for this is what God MULTIPLIES back to you to CONTINUALLY ENRICH YOU IN ALL THINGS AS LONG AS YOU ARE FAITHFUL IN YOUR LABORS(2cor8.1-5,2cor9.6,10-11,deut15.10).At times the faithful and humble believer does not know the one that God prepared to help you until you ask as it happened to Elijah and the widow of zarephath (1kg17.9-15).Having said all these the needy believer must do all things AS LED BY THE SPIRIT AND NEVER IN THE FLESH(Rom8.14,16,13.14).You do this because you are a man or woman of prayers(jn5.19,30). We must not live as beggers on others but be generous and Spirit-fiiled and generous so we can also find help when we also need it(Prov11.24-25,28.8,27)
