Seek the Lord


Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near.Isaiah‬ ‭55:6‬ ‭NLT‬‬


This verse is a powerful verse that encourages us to seek the Lord while we can still find Him. It reminds us that God is always near, but that there may come a time when it is too late to seek Him.

This verse is especially relevant to us today, as we live in a world that is constantly trying to distract us from God. We are bombarded with messages from the world that tell us that we don't need God and that we can live our lives without Him. But the truth is, we were created for God and we can only find true fulfillment and satisfaction in Him.

So, what does it mean to seek the Lord? It means to make Him our top priority in life. It means to spend time with Him in prayer and Bible study. It means to obey His commands and to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to Him.

When we seek the Lord, we are guaranteed to find Him. He promises that He will answer those who call on Him and that He will be near to those who seek Him.

Here are some benefits of seeking the Lord:

• We find peace and joy. When we seek the Lord, we experience His peace and joy, which transcends all understanding.

• We are guided and protected. God promises to guide and protect those who seek Him. He will lead us on the right path and He will keep us from harm.

• We are forgiven and transformed. When we seek the Lord, He forgives our sins and transforms our lives. He makes us more like Him and helps us to live our lives to the fullest.

If you are not currently seeking the Lord, I encourage you to start today. He is waiting for you with open arms.

Here are some practical tips for seeking the Lord:

• Make time for Him every day. Even if it's just for a few minutes, set aside some time each day to pray and read the Bible.

• Find a community of believers. Worshipping and serving with other believers can help you to grow in your faith.

• Be obedient to His commands. When we obey God's commands, we are showing Him that we love Him and that we trust Him.

• Surrender your life to Him. When we surrender our lives to God, we are giving Him control of our lives and we are trusting Him to lead us in the right direction.

Seeking the Lord is the best decision you will ever make. He is the source of true joy, peace, and fulfillment.

In summary:

• Seek the Lord while you can find Him.

The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences. Proverbs 18:21‭ NLT The tongue is a powerful tool. It can be used to build up or tear down, to encourage or discourage, to heal or harm. The Bible says that the tongue "can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences" (Proverbs 18:21). Our words have the power to affect others in a profound way. They can make someone feel loved and appreciated, or they can make them feel hurt and rejected. They can build someone up or tear them down. They can be used to spread gossip and lies, or they can be used to speak truth and love. The way we use our words is a reflection of our character. If we are quick to speak harsh words, it shows that we are not kind or compassionate. If we are constantly gossiping and spreading rumors, it shows that we are untrustworthy and manipulative. But if we are careful about what we say and use our words to build up others, it shows that we
