The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
Those who know Your name will trust in You
for You, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek You.
Psalms 9:9-10
Indeed, those who seek the Lord will never be forsaken; that is the promise of God to us. He also said “Seek Ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness and all these things shall be added unto You”. God is not a man that He can lie nor the son of man that He would change his mind. What He says…He shall do it. Especially to His very own.
What is it to seek the Lord? Seeking the Lord means seeking His presence…having access to Him. The Bible repeatedly calls us to seek the Lord and to seek His presence continually.
Now set Your mind and heart to seek the Lord your God.
1 Chronicles 22:19
God has made these promises to those who seek Him:
• Deuteronomy 4:29 But if from there You seek the Lord your God, you will find Him if you look for Him with all Your heart and with all your soul.
• 2 Chronicles 7:14 If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
• Proverbs 8:17 I love those who love Me and those who seek Me find Me….
• Luke 11:9 So I say unto you, Ask and it will be given to you, seek you shall find, knock and the door will be opened to you.
In all things when we seek the Lord we may ask anything in Jesus’ name and He will do it (John 14:14).
And will not God bring about justice for His chosen ones
who cry unto Him day and night? Will He keep putting them off?
Luke 18:7
Let us seek the Lord where He may be found for the rewards are great. He promises and He will do it. He cannot lie. I thank God for He has given us room to be found when we seek Him with all our hearts and souls.
