How wonderful to know that the God who created and has given us everything, just wants a grateful heart that gives back to him, what he has already given to us. How generous should we be to him and others, since God has freely given to us. May we all be changed by this verse everyday as we are reminded of this.

We are free from the curse of the law forever, to those who receive freely, the gift of grace by faith alone. Our works to earn salvation,will only bring stress & worry, because only Jesus was able to fulfill the law and set us FREE! Won’t you turn to him today? He is waiting.

What are you building your house upon, worldly wisdom, or the word of God. Give glory to God, not man. He cannot save you. Who do you choose?

Even in the midst of judgment, opportunity to repent was given. If they would demonstrate genuine repentance, the Lord stood ready to forgive and bless. A lesson for all, that God is merciful, and wants all to repent and turn back to him.

Here is the context from the verse before it………….. BUT IF YOUR ENEMY IS HUNGRY, FEED HIM, AND IF HE IS THIRSTY, GIVE HIM A DRINK ; FOR IN SO DOING YOU WILL HEAP BURNING COALS ON HIS HEAD.

Refers to an ancient Egyptian custom in which a person who wanted to show public contrition carried a pan of burning coals on his head. The coals represented the burning pain of his shame and guilt. When believers lovingly help their enemies, it should bring shame to such people for their hate and animosity (cf. Pr 25:21 , 22 ).
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD , And their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD .

Father, in the midst of all the troubles in this world, may we be your vessels, to Share the hope we have in Jesus. This world is only a temporary place, one one day you will restore it in perfect Harmony between nature and people, with you being the center of all things. For now, we pray for suffering, knowing that this is only temporary. May you show grace and mercy on those who need it most. Amen.

This is not some genie in a bottle type thing. This passage is about prayer. See notes below on Matthew Henry Commentary.
bible.com/bible/100/mat.7.8.NASB1995
7:7-11 Prayer is the appointed means for obtaining what we need. Pray; pray often; make a business of prayer, and be serious and earnest in it. Ask, as a beggar asks alms. Ask, as a traveller asks the way. Seek, as for a thing of value that we have lost; or as the merchantman that seeks goodly pearls. Knock, as he that desires to enter into the house knocks at the door. Sin has shut and barred the door against us; by prayer we knock. Whatever you pray for, according to the promise, shall be given you, if God see it fit for you, and what would you have more? This is made to apply to all that pray aright; every one that asketh receiveth, whether Jew or Gentile, young or old, rich or poor, high or low, master or servant, learned or unlearned, all are alike welcome to the throne of grace, if they come in faith. It is explained by a comparison taken from earthly parents, and their readiness to give their children what they ask. Parents are often foolishly fond, but God is all-wise; he knows what we need, what we desire, and what is fit for us. Let us never suppose our heavenly Father would bid us pray, and then refuse to hear, or give us what would be hurtful.
