SEEKING THE LORD
While salvation is a work of the grace of God, it does not nullify man’s responsibility to seek after God. God is sovereign but man is responsible.
You have a responsibility to seek after God.
You are commanded to seek after God.
You are commanded to believe and repent.
Isaiah 55:6-7 says “SEEK the Lord while he may be found; call upon Him while He is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.”
Matthew 6:33 “But SEEK you first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.”
John 6:25-27 Jesus said that they were SEEKING Him not because He was the Son of God but because they wanted another piece of bread. For free.
Verse 27: “LABOR not for the meat which perishes but for that bread that endures unto eternal life.”
Seek, labor, strive, exert some effort, be strenuous and zealous.
I promise you this and the Bible affirms it!
Every person who sincerely seeks God will find Him in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ!
“Seek Ye First”
