Book of Proverbs ናሙና

SEEKING GOD

The word “to seek” is a verb, and “to seek” is an action that we do purposely.  

If someone is seeking something, that person requires an effort, until the effort bears fruit. In order to be able to get the result, that person has to have perseverance and be persistent.

Proverbs 28:5b tells us about someone who is seeking the Lord. This means the person is putting in a lot of effort in order to encounter God. To be able to encounter God and become close to Him, we need to put in some effort, with perseverance and persistence. Many times, it may not be easy for us to spend time praying and reading the Word of God, but we need to keep doing it consistently. When we seek God He will meet us.

For those who seek the Lord, God will reveal His secret, His heartbeat, His mind and His plan so that we can understand many things in our life. Let us be more persistent in seeking God, and God will touch our life and give us understanding.

To be able to encounter God and be close to Him, we need effort, perseverance and persistence.
