Mateo 21:22

22 Ustedes pueden orar por cualquier cosa, y si tienen fe la recibirán.

Mateo 21:22 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 21:22

And all things whatsoever
Not only miracles, but any other thing which may be for the honour of God, the interest of religion, the spreading of the Gospel, the enlargement of the kingdom, of Christ, their own spiritual good, and the welfare of immortal souls,

ye shall ask in prayer, believing.

ye shall receive;
of God, through Christ, freely and fully, and shall have and enjoy them, either they themselves, if asked for themselves, or others, for whom they are asked.

24 —respondió Jesús—.
