If I Am a Man of God

The question that I would pose to you is this: What is the proper way for any person, great or small, to inquire of God? We are given 2 answers to this question in our text. 1st of all – If you would inquire for your own welfare and well-being, you must understand that God is jealous for His own glory. (verses 1-6) And 2nd – If you would inquire of God to receive a favorable answer, you must not despise the messenger or make haughty demands, but humbly ask to be shown mercy. Let’s together consider these things in terms of our being able to rightly inquire of the Lord.
