Come near to God and he will come near to you
April 26, 2021Praise be to the Lord, who has not abandoned his kindness and faithfulness
April 27, 2021If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
This is what the LORD says to Israel: “Seek me and live. … You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. … Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart. … You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.
Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near. … But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness. … For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
No one should seek their own good, but the good of others. … Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. … (Love) does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. … Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
