The
Bible teaches us that if we seek God we will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13). But
notice it says that we must seek God “with all [our] heart”. When we say we are
seeking God what are we really seeking? If we are seeking God to answer our
questions then we are not really seeking God. We are seeking answers. If we are
seeking God to solve a problem then we are not seeking God. We are seeking a
solution. Are we seeking God’s provision or protection? Then we are seeking
provision and protection. Jesus said that even the pagans do this. They seek
food, clothing, shelter, just stuff. But Jesus said that we shouldn't seek
these things because God already knows we need them. He said we should seek
God. Then we will find God. And when we have found God we will find the
answers, solutions and stuff we thought we needed. So concentrate on seeking
God first and foremost. Then the other stuff will fall into place.
“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all
these things will be added to you” (Matthew
6:33 NASB).
Peace and God bless,
