keep on seeking God


 

Isaiah 55:6  NASB  

Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near.


That is the verse that I ended yesterday’s devotion with.  It is a powerful word that reminds us to go to the one with all the power, the one who has all the answers and the one who cares the most for us.


Why would we seek the Lord?  We live in a world and a society that says they have all the answers, and when they don’t have the answers, they say religion or God is never the answer.  I beg to differ.  Maybe you do as well.  What do we believe about God.


Why seek God?


Jeremiah 33:3  NLT  

Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come. 


Seek God because He has the answers


2 Kings 6:17  NLT  

Then Elisha prayed, “O Lord, open his eyes and let him see!” The Lord opened the young man’s eyes, and when he looked up, he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire.


Seek God because He can open our eyes and heal sickness.


Psalm 103:7  NLT  

He revealed his character to Moses and his deeds to the people of Israel.


Seek God because He reveals who He is and how good He is to those who seek Him.


Psalm 31:19  NLT  

How great is the goodness you have stored up for those who fear you. You lavish it on those who come to you for protection, blessing them before the watching world.


Seek God because He cares for those who fear or honor Him as well as giving them protection.


2 Corinthians 9:10  NLT  

For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.


Seek God because He is the one who provides what is best, what is needed and what makes us the people He made us to be.


Just seek God.  My prayer is for revival.  I pray that you and I will seek God for His presence, His power and His peace as we get honest about the truth God gives us.  Seek God today!


Hebrews 11:6  NLT  

And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.


Matthew 6:33  NLT  

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
