(Please scroll further down for 7 Encouraging Bible Verses about Seeking God.)
Dear Friends, we recently read about the story of the Magi/Wise Men, and the journey they made to go see and worship Jesus. The Bible says they were “overjoyed” when they found out where Jesus was. (Previous Post for your reference: God Can Use Anyone).
I found the attitude of these Magi so inspiring! They learned about the birth of Jesus, The Messiah, The King… but they did not stop there… they set out to seek and worship!
Today, I am praying that we will all set our minds and hearts to seek the Lord!
I pray that wherever we are at this point in our lives, wherever we are in our walk with God, whatever our background or previous actions or experiences may be… I pray that starting from today, we will all set our minds and hearts to seek the Lord. AMEN.
