Hi Friends,
As promised here Is your downloadable 21 MORE days of Ask questions and verses, scroll to the bottom and they are all listed in the blog, or click below to download the PDF.
Spend 3 minutes asking the question of the Lord, then listening. Sitting in silence. Look up each verse and read a few before and after and read them in different versions of the bible. Use this as a guide for your quiet time with the Lord. Journal all that you hear and wait patiently on the Lord. Go back and do the first 21 along with me on Instagram, and Tik Tok.
Before you go... Two opportunities in October for you to see me speak live in person. October 12th in Lancaster, Pa.
And, October 26th in Audubon, Pa.

1. What do you have for me today?

For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.”
4. Lord what isn’t a coincidence?
· Romans 8:28 “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”
5. Lord where in the bible are you speaking to me?

6. What steps do you want me to take right now?
· Hebrews 11:8 TPT “Faith motivated Abraham to obey God’s call and leave the familiar to discover the territory he was destined to inherit from God. So he left with only a promise and without even knowing ahead of time where he was going, Abraham stepped out in faith.”

10. What thoughts am I letting in that don’t serve me?
· Philippians 4:8-9 The Message Bible “Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.”
11. What are you growing in me?
· John 15:1-8 CSB ““I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. Every branch in me that does not produce fruit he removes, and he prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me. If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown aside like a branch and he withers. They gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you. My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be my disciples.”
12. Lord how would you handle this situation?
· 1 Corinthians 10:13, “We will not boast about things done outside our area of authority. We will boast only about what has happened within the boundaries of the work God has given us, which includes our working with you. “
13. What promise do you have for me?
· Psalms 2:8, CSB “Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance and the ends of the earth your possession.”
14. What does your word say…
· Joshua 1:8 “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.”
15. Lord what’s the biggest thing in the way of our relationship?
· Isaiah 44:9-10, NIV “All who make idols are nothing, and the things they treasure are worthless. Those who would speak up for them are blind; they are ignorant, to their own shame. Who shapes a god and casts an idol, which can profit nothing?”
16. In what ways am I lacking confidence?
· Hebrews 10:22-23, The Message “So let’s do it—full of belief, confident that we’re presentable inside and out. Let’s keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word.” (another favorite verse of mine.)
17. What are you teaching me while I wait?

Repeat them to your children. Talk about them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Bind them as a sign on your hand and let them be a symbol on your forehead. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your city gates.”
19. Where do I need to have empathy?
· Galatians 6:2 CSB “Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”
20. How can you help me slow down?
· Hebrews 4:11 “Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.”
21. Lord, how can I serve you?
· Colossians 3:23-24 “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.”
Keep striving to hear the Lord. Stay diligent in quiet time and in the word. He yearns to be close to you. Don’t give up.
If you don’t know the Lord, please pray this prayer with me and ask Him into your heart.
Dear heavenly father, I believe there is no other God than you. I admit I am powerless and a sinner, and I want to give all my past burdens, mistakes and sorrows to you. I commit my present and future to you right now. Please come into my heart and live there forever. I surrender myself to you, mind body, soul and heart. This life is yours. Thank you for loving me. In your name, Amen
If you prayed that prayer, please reach out to me. Xxo Kerstin
