Isaiah 55:6
Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him
while he is near." (NIV)
"Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye
upon him while he is near." (KJV)
Looking for the Lord is a matter of opening ourselves
to spend uninterrupted communion with Him. If this is
the first intent of our prayer life, all else will fall into
place. How many of us spend our entire prayer time
with a word or two of praise followed by a long list of
things we need the Lord to do for us? Praying for others
and our needs is important. But unless we seek after the
Lord in total abandonment to Him, we will not be
effective intercessors.
Heavenly Father, how we must grieve you with our
endless petitions for You to move on our behalf and
we have not taken the time to just bask in Your
presence and let You know what a wonderful and
awesome God you are. Keep our minds aware that
seeking You and Your presence is all we need to be
able to live victorious lives here on earth. In Jesus'
name, Amen.
