Seek God


'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord,
'Plans to prosper you and give you hope and a future.
Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me,
And I will listen to you.
You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.
(Jeremiah 29:13 NIV)

God spoke these words through Jeremiah to the children of Israel
Who had been taken into captivity because of their sin against God.
We have all sinned against God; We were sinners from birth;
We were born into a sinful world.

Yet, God has a perfect Plan and Purpose for each one of us.
However, in order to find out what this plan and purpose is
We must seek God, the only One Who knows this Plan and Purpose,
As He is the One who created it.
We only find the Plan and Purpose for our lives
When we seek God with all our heart.

God promises that if we seek Him with all our heart we will find Him.
No one will find God with a half-hearted effort.
It is all or nothing with God.
He gave His all when He gave His only begotten Son
To be the living sacrifice for our sin;
Christ Jesus who endured the brutal Cross of Calvary on our behalf,
So that we could be forgiven before a Holy God.
Now, we must seek God with all that is within us.

The reality is that God first seeks us by His Holy Spirit
From the time we are born.
We have a God given conscience that tells us right from wrong.
No one has ever found God by his own revelation;
God pursues each one of us from birth by His Holy Spirit;
Constantly pointing right from wrong; Constantly convicting us of our sin;
Constantly pointing out the reality of His existence by all of creation.
However, if we do not respond to the revelation He give us;
If we harden our hearts to His conviction, we remain lost and condemned.
On the other hand if we respond to His revelation
And seek Him with all of our hearts we find him.

When we seek God and find Him,
We find the only Way, the only Truth and the only LIFE that exists.
In all that exist there is only one LIFE.
All natural life emanates from God Who is LIFE.
If God did not exist there would be NOTHING!
But He does exist [He is Self-Existent]
And gives natural life and Eternal LIFE to those who seek Him.
This natural life we have been given is a gift from God.
If we seek God with all our hearts we gain Eternal LIFE,
The greatest GIFT that could be given.

If we seek God with all of our heart we find His WAY.
This WAY is Christ Jesus in whom the Fullness of God dwells;
The Word of God made flesh.
It is the teaching of Christ Jesus our only Teacher.
Christ Jesus is the bread of LIFE.
If we eat of Him we find Eternal LIFE.
What is Eternal LIFE? It is KNOWING God.

If we seek God with all of our heart we find His TRUTH.
That TRUTH is Christ Jesus, the only TRUTH that exists.
Apart from Christ Jesus everything is a LIE.
Christ Jesus is the only source of TRUTH in all that exists;
His Word is TRUTH as He is TRUTH; They are One.

If we seek God with all of our heart; if we are thirsty
We find His Living Water, The Water of LIFE, that Christ Jesus dispenses;
Our personal Day of Pentecost;
That which was received by the 120 on The Day of Pentecost
With all the same manifestations;
Power from on High, the Fire of God, and the speaking in tongues.
The phenomena that gave birth to the Church of God;
The Holy Spirit living in and through the people of God;
Christ in us our hope of Glory.

Those in the day of Christ Jesus, that sought God, found Him
On The Day of Pentecost
As did all who have had the same experience thereafter.
If you seek God with all your heart
You will find your personal Day of Pentecost;
The day that Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit, comes to live inside of you.
That is your hope of Glory!

I pray that all who read this message will find God,
Through Christ Jesus,
The One Who Baptizes in the Holy Spirit;
The One Who pours out His Living Water; His Anointing
On those who seek Him with all their heart.

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this corrupt generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
