Psalm 9:10: And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
Ignorance is worst when it amounts to ignorance of God, and knowledge is best when it exercises itself upon the name of God. This most excellent knowledge leads to the most excellent grace of faith. By knowing his name is also meant an experimental acquaintance with the attributes of God, which are anchors to hold the soul from drifting. The Lord may hide his face for a season from his people, but he never has utterly, finally, really, or angrily forsaken them that seek him. What must be the Lord’s faithfulness to those who find if he is so gracious to those who seek. 1
Living the Transformed Life
Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore! Psalm 105:4
- Seek Him more than you seek His blessing.
- Seek Him more than you seek the approval of others.
- Seek Him more than you seek your latest responses on social media.
Seeking Him more means I am seeking myself less. – TWEET IT
Praise and Prayer
Thank You, Father, for the daily invitation to enter your throne room of grace. Dear Jesus, please help me to empty me of myself.
