Matthew 7:7
Keep on asking for something to be given and it shall be given you. Keep on seeking, and you shall find. Keep on reverently knocking, and it shall be opened to you.

Matt 7:7Αἰτεῖτε, καὶ δοθήσεται ὑμῖν· ζητεῖτε, καὶ εὑρήσετε· κρούετε, καὶ ἀνοιγήσεται ὑμῖν.
The Greek New Testament: SBL Edition MT 7:7
Paul seeks for the good for others (1 Cor. 10:33), which is a characteristic of genuine love (“not self-seeking,” 1 Cor. 13:5). Regarding prayer, those who “seek” from the Father will find (Mt. 7:7–8). To those who “seek” glory, honor, and immortality, God gives eternal life (Rom. 2:7), and to those “seeking” the kingdom of God and his righteousness, all necessities will be given as well (Mt. 6:33).
