How many of you remember searching for information back in the days using one of these or going to one of these places?
It was a time that we had to be really resourceful when we wanted to find out about something or learn about something. With today's technology some of these items are slowly fading away.
Today if we want to find information we can google for it on the Internet with our computers, laptops, cell phones and yes even the e-book. We can also add that information to our favorites or find an app for it so all we have to do is push that app button. People use this technology to find answers to their problems, whether it be a health issue, a solution to a particular problem or to find an answer they think will help them personally. People will search and search and search never truly finding the answer that will satisfy them.
There is one search engine, one app, one book that; has been, here today and always will be here for us to use to find our answers. It is the first and will out last all.
Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."
1 Peter 1:25 "but the word of the Lord stands forever"
We live in a world where we are searching. People who do not know God search in areas that give them no satisfaction.
Psalm 4:2 How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods?
They believe that there is no God or if they do, they believe He will not help them or give them the answers they want.
Psalm 10:4 In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
Looking for answers in material things or false things, it will not be found and comprehension will never be filled.
Ecclesiastes 8:17b No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning.
We should look to God, seek Him out and acquire meaning through Him, he will not steer us wrong and He does give us the answers but it will be an answer that He thinks is best for us and not the one we think would be best.
1Chronicles 16:11 Look to the LORD and his strength; see his face always.
Proverbs 18:15 The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of the wise seek it out.
The thing we have to do is ask and seek. He will open the door to you but you must believe that He exists and have the faith that He will give you an answer. He will every time.
Matthew 7:7 "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find: knock and the door will be opened to you."
Matthew 6:33 "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
You want to know a little secret? If you do not own a Bible in book form you can find an app for that too and add it to your phone, ( for which I do have on my phone) add to favorites on your computer or laptop and so forth. As in the Biggest Loser show would say for this season "there is no excuse" not to have a Bible. NO Excuse to not turn to Him and ask. He will help you, I promise just it will be His answer and it will be in His time.
