This is the generation of them that seek HIM
Psalms 24:6
Does generation describe a race of individuals who seek Him;
or, is this a painted portrait of an individuals personal character?
Is everyone seeking God?
Romans 3:10 says
There is no one righteous, not even one; there is no one
who understands, there is no one who seeks God.
The phrase “to seek God” is often used as descriptive of true integrity:
Psalm 9:10
they that know Your name (Your peerless character)
will put their trust in You: for You, LORD, have not forsaken them that
seek You.
Psalm 14:2
The LORD looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there
were any that did understand, and seek God.
Psalm 63:1 is our cry:
O God, You are our God; early will we seek You: our soul thirsts for God,
our flesh longs for God in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
In Proverbs 8:17 God assures us that
He loves them that love Him; and those that seek Him will find Him.
Matthew 6:33 Jesus says:
to seek first the kingdom (control) of God ( in our life),
and his righteousness (the activity of doing what’s right);
and all these things will be added to us.
Matthew 7:7. Jesus again says:
Ask, and it will be given us; seek, and we will find; knock, and it will
be opened to us:
This indicates an earnest desire to know Him and to have His favor.
It denotes also the humility of mind of needing God, and a sense of our
need of trusting dependence on God.
Isaiah 55:6
so we Seek the Lord while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.
Job 8:5 says:
there is rich value in seeking God and pleading with the Almighty
for mercy
Search for Him as for Gold and hidden treasure
