What is a Principle?
A principle is a set of rule that is laid down for something to work.
Principles of receiving are those conditions that must be met for someone to receive.
The principle of receiving is to ASK.
There are some things that must be considered when asking. Which are:
-Posture of the heart: The posture of one's heart
is very necessary when asking from God.
God considers the motives and intention of humans. If one's heart posture isn't right, the person won't receive.
OBEDIENCE:
For an individual to receive, he/she must be ready to obey. God requires total obedience which is a criterion to receive from Him. E.g of someone that obeyed God fully is Abraham. Luke 16:10, If one isn't faithful in little instructions he/she can't be faithful when a higher task is given. True obedience is obeying God even when it's not convenient.
CAPACITY
What hinders people most time from receiving from God is their capacity hence, capacity comes before content. Content here refers to what is been asked. One can build capacity in service( 1 Chro 14:8). Your altar is your capacity. So expanding your capacity is by obeying small instructions. God can't pour 20 litres of water into a 5 litre of bucket.
