As our Creator and Savior, our Lord knows our needs. We may wish for something or feel we somehow merit something, but God knows what we truly need. What we truly need is salvation from our sins. Jesus came to reconcile us to God by His death and resurrection. To accept this we must respond humbly and with faith. The examples provided in scripture of the Pharisees, scribes and others making demands or seeking favorable positions or power are the opposite of what God desires.
We should seek opportunities to spend time with God through prayer and the study of His word. When we discover God's will we should then act upon it as God directs. In doing so we receive the blessings God promises for His faithful followers.
