It is Time to Seek the Lord..... (1.13.20)

Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and showers His righteousness on you - Hosea 10:12


Faith Believers,
It is time to seek the Lord.

Those who are in periods of spiritual dryness often look for answers in many places. GOD’s Word directs us to seek the Lord, for He is the only source for the renewing rain of Heaven. You may argue, 'But I’m already a Christian.  Why should I seek the Lord?'  The sad truth is that we all have a tendency to slowly move away from His Presence. By doing this, we find ourselves spiritually dry and wonder why such a thing could happen to a believer.

The Lord’s Presence must be continually sought after. Complacency, and a natural tendency for becoming distracted by the affairs of this world, require us - again and again -  to put aside matters, so that we may seek after the Lord.

Whenever there is spiritual drought in the land, and rain is being desired, the response should be, “It is time to seek the Lord!”

Seeking requires effort. It should not be a vague desire, but a consuming passion. And it requires persevering prayer.

Gracious Father, 
It is so easy to become distracted by the things of this world; when my heart should be set upon seeking Your Face.

Fill me with a  renewed passion, within my heart, to seek Your Face; and to live in Your Presence continually.

Amen
