Scripture for this weekends message:

“Suppose one of you has a friend, and he goes to him at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, because a friend of mine on a journey has come to me and I have nothing to set before him’” (Luke 11:5-6 NIV).

“Then the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything’” (Luke 11:7 NIV).

“I tell you, though he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man’s boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs” (Luke 11:8 NIV).

“So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you: seek and you will find: knick and the door will be opened to you” (Luke 11:9 NIV).

“For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks the door will be opened” (Luke 11:10 NIV).

Do you have any thoughts?
What jumps out to you in these passages that might be important for students to hear/know?

I think my message will include this thought: "God is not bothered by your persistence. Sometimes He is moved by it."
