1 Timothy 2:1-6
King James Version (KJV)
2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Matt 7:7-8 You must regularly ask and it will be given to you, you must continually seek and you will find, you must knock habitually and it will be opened to you:8. For everyone who asks takes, and the one who seeks finds, and it will be opened for the one who knocks. (One New Man Bible Version ).
