Deuteronomy 4:29 " But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find Him, if thou seek Him with all thy heart and with all thy soul".
Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God, the creator and savior of the whole world. The answer to every prayer ever prayed.The fulfilled promise from God to mankind, and I ask do you seek Him to find Him or the things He has. Why is it that you seek Him in your life? Is is because of the miracle of salvation or because of things of this world.
Jesus came to pay the price for man's salvation, He died that we might live. John said "Behold the lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world". The purpose for Jesus birth, death, and His glorious resurrection was to set man free from sin and the guilt of sin. But many have been mislead to think He died that we might obtain the riches of this world. Jesus didn't have to die for us to be rich, there were people who prospered with material wealth even before Jesus. Jesus died that man might be free from sin and once again have a relationship with his creator. In the gospel of John, Jesus tells the many who followed Him, you didn't seek me for salvation, but for the things I blessed you with. Many of us today don't seek Christ for our salvation, but for the promise of what we can get from Him. We tend to work hard for the things of this world that will perish, but tend to hit and miss when it comes to having a relationship with Christ. He tells us to labor for that which is everlasting.
Let us not get so caught up in the empty promises of this world, hung up seeking it's joys and toys, and let us seek after that which is forever. Let us seek after Christ for the salvation of our soul and the promise of ever lasting life. Seek and you shall Find if you seek Him with all thy heart and soul.
