Trust

And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
Psalms 9:10 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.9.10.NASB1995

To seek the Lord is to find Him. To find Him is the beginning of a journey to know Him. To know Him is to love Him and to trust Him.
Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and foremost commandment.”
Matthew 22:37-38 NASB1995

God’s promise . . .

For the Lord will not abandon His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.

Power to Glorify

Apr16

“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is anything too difficult for Me?”
Jeremiah 32:27 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.32.27.NASB1995

‭All believers have been called. Called through salvation to fulfill the plan of God. The glory in this is that fulfilling God’s plan is not dependent on us. That’s a huge weight lifted off of our shoulders. Before you get too excited though, we do have responsibilities beyond our confession of belief in Jesus Christ:

1. Love the Lord your God – Joshua 23:11
2. Seek His kingdom first – Matthew 6:33
3. Surrender your will to God’s will – Matthew 6:10
4. Obey – Acts 5:29
5. Honor – 1 Corinthians 6:20
6. Follow – ‭1 John 2:6
7. Abide in Him – John 15:4

You can participate in the wonders of God and see His glory as He works through His fully devoted servant – YOU!

If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
Galatians 5:25 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.25.NASB1995

And the disciples were continually filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Acts 13:52 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/act.13.52.NASB1995

‘Ah Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You,
Jeremiah 32:17 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.32.17.NASB1995

Lord God, I surrender. Use me for Your glory!

God’s People, Seek His Face

Mar6

and My people who are called by My name . . . seek My face
2 Chronicles 7:14c NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.7.14.NASB1995

Life is ALL about God. ALL about His plan! ALL about His way! Realization of this truth will humble a person. In humbleness we go before God in prayer seeking His Face, His will, His way. God becomes our quest, our priority in life.

I will go away and return to My place Until they acknowledge their guilt and seek My face; In their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.
Hosea 5:15 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/hos.5.15.NASB1995

Seek God with a repentant heart.
‭‭
Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually.
Psalms 105:4 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.105.4.NASB1995

Seek God’s strength to walk this life for His glory. Seek His face continually.

🌹When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You, “Your face, O Lord, I shall seek.”

Wait and Trust

Oct13

Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.
Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.27.14.NASB1995

This week and three days last week have been about searching Psalm 27.

Verse 14 sums it all up.
First of all, it is all about God.
God is He who we need to seek, to trust. It is through Him, and Him alone, that we can be strong against the forces of evil and are able to fill our heart with courage. But how is this attainable?

WAIT.
Wait for the Lord. . .Wait for the Lord.
Sandwiched between those two phrases is where our protection, our strength, our courage are found. Are you willing to wait on the Lord? Willing to trust Him?

‭‭My soul, wait in silence for God only, For my hope is from Him. Psalms‬ ‭62:5‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.62.5.NASB1995

Yet those who wait for the Lord Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.
Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.31.NASB1995

Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.

Psalms‬ ‭27:8‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

I sought the Lord, and He answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.
Psalms‬ ‭34:4‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.34.4.NASB1995

There is peace and freedom in Christ the Lord. ‭‭In Jeremiah‬ ‭29:13‬ ‭God says, “You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart”.

So  .  .  .

Seek and Know

Oct3

“As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind (soul); for the Lord searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will let you find Him; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.
1 Chronicles 28:9 NASB

The grace of God allows us to find Him.
Seeking God is to know Him.
Knowing God is to revere Him.
To revere God is to worship, respect, honor, exalt, cherish, adore, admire, obey and seek.

🌹You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:13 NASB

Don’t Be Deceived

Aug28

Now we request you, brethren, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, that you not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by a spirit or a message or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy (falling away from the faith) comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.
2 Thessalonians 2:1‭-‬4 NASB

Don’t be expecting Jesus to come and reveal Himself in the flesh. He has already done that. When He returns it will be to crush and destroy the deceiver who opens the gateway to eternal death; The one who will “display himself as being God”.
Be aware. Seek God. Seek and you will find.

🌹“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
Matthew 7:7 NASB

🌹You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:13 NASB

Mindset

Aug2

But turning around and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter and *said, “Get behind Me, Satan; for you are not setting your mind on God’s interests (the things of God), but man’s.”
Mark 8:33 NASB

What is your mindset? Is it all about God and seeking His kingdom or is it all about you and this world?

I know the struggle is real. I deal with it daily myself. I am constantly reminding myself that “God is in control” and has a plan. It’s not easy seeking, desiring, focusing on God and His will. Following His lead for His glory! Christian we must faithfully practice godliness. Keep seeking Jesus. Keep reading God’s word. Keep praying.

🌹But have nothing to do with worldly fables fit only for old women. On the other hand, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness; for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
1 Timothy 4:7‭-‬8 NASB

God bless your walk.

Continually Seeking Him,

Sharon
