Finding Treasure

Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the LORD be glad. 1 Chronicles 16:10 (NASB)

  • When we seek the LORD, we receive instruction and wisdom from Him, and we will grow and be blessed by doing so.
  • I think that to seek the LORD is to read His written word, take it to heart and live how He wants us to live. I think to seek the LORD is to see Him in every situation, good or bad. I think that to seek the LORD is to seek after His great counsel and put Him first in everything we do.
  • Actively seeking God is so important in our lives because of the peace, joy and blessings that He brings.
  • It's God's promise, it's His rule, part of His design that if we seek Him our hearts will be glad.
  • Glory in His holy name -We can give glory to God in many ways. We can sing a song of praise to worship Him, we can also witness to others about Him, when we follow His instruction and live by His written commands we also give glory to Him. Doing good work and good deeds in this world, doing things that are influenced by God, and doing things that are for God, are all ways to glorify  and praise Him.
  • Jesus Christ's name is glorious, just giving Him praise and all the glory is such a joy in itself! In a world that is temporal, there is so much joy in seeking Him who is eternal!
Dear Heavenly Father, what a great gift it is you give me, the gift that is the desire to seek You. In seeking You, my heart is full and yet still has room for more of You. To seek You is to get to know You, and I am so happy and content in knowing You. We give glory to You, Jesus, forever and ever. ~Amen
