Believe and Seek

Hebrews 11:6 (ESV) And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

The scriptures tells us what God seekers look like.  The believe He exists and He rewards them.

Are you are God seeker?

First, you need to believe He exists.  If this isn't there, don't expect Him to show up.  He won't.  If you believe God is there, and you seek Him, you are halfway there.  For those who draw near to God, doubts have been laid aside and they know this is not foolish empty mission.  

It's funny, we get what we expect with God.  If we expect Him to be there, He is.  If we don't, He's not.

Second, you need to believe He rewards seekers. He's looking to bless someone.  Read that again.  God wants to bless seekers who believe He wants to bless them.  

It doesn't say, "God blesses good behavior."

It doesn't say, "God blesses hard work."

It doesn't say, "God blesses those who are born in the right family."

Those are true to an extent.  But the point is clear: We are what we believe with God.  

If you are looking for someone to blame for why God let you down, or didn't come through, maybe you need to look at you.  If what Hebrews 11:6 says is true, the good news is, there's something you can do about it.

Believe and Seek.

PRAYER:

Father, I believe you will bless my life.  I ask for peace in my home, prosperity in my work and power in my words to bring life to people.  Amen.
