Seek God & Find God




But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Matthew 7:7-8

The only way to worship God is to know Him. We cannot honor someone based on what we have heard. We must have personal knowledge. You have heard countless accounts of God with others but do you have a testimony? My friend, you have to seek God. You have to sacrifice self for the sake of the relationship. Last month, a dear friend moved 9324 MI/15006 KM to be with someone he loves. He left everything behind (family, friends, a great career). He assured me that no sacrifice can ever be to great. He was not pressured by anyone. He just wanted to prove his love. Friend, God loves you unconditionally. He is seeking a relationship with you. Is your heart available? Would you walk away from sinful relationships and bad habits? What wouldn't you sacrifice for a relationship with God? You say you want to be with Him but you are not willing to sacrifice anything. You are not serious about it. You don't want to move. It takes a lot to be a God chaser. Abraham was a God chaser and we know the rewards that followed his acts of obedience.

God gives you many opportunities to have a relationship with Him, and you do want a relationship with him as well but you simply not ready to give up certain things. You think you have time. But How much time do you really have? You have been trying to be in relationship with Him for a long time. Why else would would you go from one relationship to the next seeking for somebody to fulfill your needs and to make you complete. But no matter who you dedicate your life to, you never found fulfillment. You are looking for God everywhere. you have tried drugs and alcohol. you have tried all religions but you are still searching. When will you realize that there is no alternative to God. He is the only living God. He alone can satisfy your heart. When you lift your eyes toward heaven some changes will most definitely take place. Your search for satisfaction can be over today. Let you heart glorify God. Put an end to this desperate search. Turn you face toward God and start enjoying a relationship alike no other.

And Father how grateful I am for you love! you choose to open my eyes today. I realize that nothing else in this world can satisfy me. Thank you for sending me this word. Thank you for reaching out to me. I declare and decree that my life is no longer mine but yours. From now on I will only seek to be you agent in this world. From today on You are my only God. I realize that my education, wealth, social status and background never satisfied my heart. Only you can satisfy me. Only you are holy. Only you are worthy and only you are God. To you be the Glory and honor forever!

Praise the Lord!
