Faith Seeks God

Faith seeks God. That is confidence and trust in God. It's not faith in your faith. Rather, it's confidence in the promises of God. The promises of God are found in your Bible. They are covenant promises that are steadfast and sure. Here is a promise for those who seek God. "So, you see, it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him" (Hebrews 11:6, NLT).

Faith seeks God through prayer. It's seeking God and receiving from his goodness. God is a loving, compassionate, and kind Father. He is not reluctant to do good things in the lives of all his children. No good thing does he withhold from his children. Those who seek God by faith know the goodness of God.

Faith seeks God our Father. Put your confidence in his ability to do good things in your life. Believe his mercy and grace. Understand that we are not on a merit system in God's family. Grace is his unmerited favor. God our Father loves you and will do good things in your life.

Faith seeks God with confidence through Jesus Christ. Through prayer seek God our Father through the name of Jesus. Those who seek God by faith know "that he rewards those who sincerely seek him."
