John 16:23-30

23And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, If ye shall ask anything of the Father, he will give it you in my name.

24Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be fulfilled.

25These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: the hour cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but shall tell you plainly of the Father.

26In that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you;

27for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from the Father.

28I came out from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go unto the Father.

29His disciples say, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

30Now know we that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
