Yesterday the Lord spoke to me and told me,
"There are many choices behind you, and many choices before you, but there is only one choice that's best. So seek Me diligently. Seek Me early, and seek Me late in the evening. Seek, seek, seek...seek, and you shall find."
This has been such a recurring thing for me recently. If I seek Him, I will find Him. If I diligently seek Him, I will find His Will. These are promises, and they are waiting to be fulfilled. And the Lord continues to feed me this verse again, and again, and again... (and again, four times!). Remember Jesus' question to Peter? (John 21) He speaks to us repetitively so that we can get His Word deeply ingrained. He stresses a message so that we can know He is God, even in our stillness (Psalms 46:10).
I remember that when Vanessa and I were in Springfield, Missouri, last month, a close friend of ours imparted to me some godly wisdom. Now this friend is very prophetic--glory to God for the gifting--and he told me specifically, "Seek and you will find". I was so blessed by that. The Lord has quickened this verse to me in my own quiet time so often and in so many ways.
There is so much to be found--so many things to find out. There is so much to hunger after--the unspeakable riches we have inherited in Christ, and more than that, the unspeakable love we have been given by Christ. We need to know that the Lord is good, so that we can praise Him accordingly.
And there is so much to seek. Those who seek Him find Him (Proverbs 8:17). Those who seek Him become filled as He draws near (James 4:8). Those who seek Him do so when they are hungry, and He fills the hungry with good things (Psalms 107:9).
The Lord is coming in glory. (Isaiah 60:1) He is coming in splendor. And He will come, as soon as we really, really search for Him. As we seek Him, pieces and portions of His character will surface. The many facets of His Will can come to the surface, and He brings them to our attention. (Jeremiah 6:16) Glory to God!
"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, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened."
