This is a mighty word and this small post will not do it justice. To Seek is a pinnacle word or action, in walking with Yahuah. To have fellowship with Him is to seek but not just seek haphazardly but more like Diligently run after, carefully inquire, discover, and explore.
Friendship is a great avenue for the word seek to be demonstrated. To seek is to understand a friend, to seek their dislikes, likes, pain points, what makes them laugh, and their passions. You need to spend some time with them and observe them.
Give it all you got, run into Yah, and learn Him, learn from Him. What does He like? What does He hate? We are told to love what He loves and hate what He hates. Matthew (Mattithyahu) 7:23 states the following,
“And then I shall declare to them, ‘I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!’”
If you do not seek Yahuah then you will run the grave risk of really not knowing Him and Him shutting the door on you in the end.
The parable in Matthew 13:44 states: “Again, the reign of the heavens is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man having found it, hid, and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
**Let go of everything holding you back—your will, thoughts, and emotions—and boldly seek Yahuah. Pursue His presence with determination, and you will discover the deep joy that comes from Him!
Shalom.
