Seek! (Pt. 3)
Last week I mentioned this would be the conclusion of “Seek” but now I’ve decided there really is no end to this subject! This research started out as one installment but expanded to three! That’s what is so great about our God. As we grow closer to Him, the more there is to know about Him.
Psalm 63:1 – “O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You;”
Go to God first! Continue reading
Seek! (Pt. 2)
Let’s learn more about the benefits of seeking our Lord.
God’s Word instructs us to avoid evil. But, how? The answer follows:
2 Chronicles 12:14 – “And he did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the Lord.” Continue reading
Seek! (Pt. 1)
There are many scriptures containing the word “seek” and I would like to share some that are relative for our daily living and essential for these end times.
So many today only seek God’s help in emergencies or when their lives are out of control. Throughout the Bible, there are numerous accounts of men and women who sought God when times were difficult and also in times of blessing.
While it is better to seek God than not seek Him at all, let’s look at the promises in the Word of God that come with consistently pursuing the Lord. Continue reading
God Chose You!
For years I have been a student of God’s Word and have gained so much strength from it. I have known and memorized Ephesians 1:3 which says that we are blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 1:3-6 — “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4) According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5) Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6) To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

Be Careful What You Think
In Proverbs 4:23 — “Be careful what you think, because your thoughts run your life.” (NCV) “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” (KJV)
In the Greek, the word heart refers to your intellect and will. What that means to me is that it is very important to control what you put and retain in your mind. Does the Scripture not tell us to put on the mind of Christ? We need to think the way that Jesus thinks, to think about the things Jesus thought about and to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit. In John 5:19, it says, “But Jesus said, I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing alone. The Son does only what He sees the Father doing, because the Son does whatever the Father does.” Continue reading
