John 16:23 tells us “In that day…you won't question me. Truly, truly I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.” Truly, truly I tell you is “amen, amen lego” ‘Amen’ is the Hebrew word for faith, believe, so be it or absolute surety. Lego is ‘I tell you’ originally meaning lay down to sleep, later used as putting an argument to rest. So, John is telling us amen, amen lego…what I’m about to say is an absolute truth that never fails. Lay down and rest in this. Whatever you ‘ask’ the Father in my name will be given you. Dr. Kay Fairchild, “The word ‘ask’ was wrongly translated from ‘aiteo’ which should mean: to lay claim or to realize that which is already ours. It is akin to the word ‘receive’ which simply means: To take unto oneself that which already belongs to us…often we hear well-meaning individuals asking for things in prayer, rather than knowing that all things are already theirs.” If you've been encouraged by this message and Freedom Ministries, please consider sharing it with others and giving online at https://give.cornerstone.cc/Freedom+Ministries
