PROBING QUESTIONS

In this final week of 2015 perhaps it is good to think of some of the probing questions the Lord asked.  Your answers may be quite revealing?

"Where are you?" - Genesis 3:9 NKJV
That's what God asked when He came into the Garden of Eden shortly after Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit?
Where are you? 

"Where is your faith?" - Luke 8:25 NKJV
The question implies:  Where are you placing your faith?

"Ask!  What shall I give you?" - 1 Kings 3:5 NKJV
This is what God asked Solomon.  He makes a similar offer in Matthew 7:7.  What would you want?

"What do you want Me to do for you?" - Luke 18:41 NKJV
A blind man came to Jesus and this is what Jesus asked him.  What do you want Jesus to do for you? 

"Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord' and not do the things I say?" - Luke 6:46 NKJV
Do you often pray, "Dear Lord..."?  If you call Him "Lord", is He?
