He says...

 And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.(Luke 11:9-10 ESV)
Having given a picture of what prayer looks like, and an illustration on persistence in prayer, Jesus now gives us the promise: God will answer. He wants us to ask; He is not playing hide and seek; He is listening for the knock. The key is in the opening phrase:  "And I tell you..."  Again, will we trust Him and what He says.  Will we ask, seek and knock, becuase we believe in Him?
