“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7
Beloved, in the midst of life’s busyness and distractions, let us remember that it is time to seek the Lord. As Proverbs 8:17 reminds us, I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me. The path to finding peace, strength, and guidance begins with our earnest pursuit of God.
In Luke 11:9, Jesus tells us, Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. This promise reassures us that when we seek the Lord wholeheartedly, He is faithful in revealing Himself to us. Just as the woman with the issue of blood pressed through the crowd to touch Jesus’ garment (Mark 5:25-34), let us persist in seeking Him with unwavering faith.
Deuteronomy 4:29 says, “But if from there you will seek the LORD your God, you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”
Let us not grow weary in seeking God, for Isaiah 55:6 encourages us to Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near. Let our hearts turn towards God in prayer and worship in times of uncertainty or difficulty. Remember the story of David, who sought God’s guidance before every battle and emerged victorious (1 Samuel 23:2-4).
May we approach each day with a heart inclined towards seeking the Lord. Let our prayers rise like incense before His throne (Psalm 141:2), confident that He hears us and responds to our cries. Trust in His promise. Amen. Jeremiah 29:13-14 says, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. Amen.
Prayer for the day!
May our prayers rise like incense before God’s throne, a fragrant offering of hearts made pure and clean. Let every word spoken, each petition thrown, ascend to the heavens, where His face is seen. May our lives reflect His holy light, guiding others through their darkest night. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
