"O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head." [1 Samuel 1:11]. This was Hannah's bold prayer to the Lord.
One of the beauties of being a child of God, is the confidence He has given us to approach His throne. Hebrews 4:16 instructs, "let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Approaching God with confidence indicates that we trust in His ability "to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think." [Ephesians 3:20].
Jesus said "ask [according to His will] and it shall be given to you." [St. Matthew 7:7a]. “Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” [Mark 11:24].
