SEEK HIM

"Seek the LORD while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near." Isaiah 55:6 NIV

The Bible says the greatest treasure to be found is not silver or gold, but the Lord. Silver, gold and other treasures will never truly satisfy you because one day it will all perish. But the treasure we have in God will truly meet the deepest needs of our souls, and it is eternal. The Bible says "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away".

In our text verse, it says that now is the time we need to seek the Lord. Why? because it is a divine command and instruction. The Hebrew word here for “seek” is “Darash”, it means to inquire, ask, place a request or demand, or to read something repeatedly and study. To "seek" God also means that you “study” His word, not flipping open your Bible once or twice, but really “digging in” to it. 

When we really “seek” something or someone, we put a lot of time and effort into it. God is not hidden, He can be found as long as our hearts are inclined to look for Him. We must take advantage of this gift, and make the most of it while we have it. God has given you the right to inquire and demand from Him.

That word "While" means there's a time limit when we cant seek Him anymore. There is a window of opportunity here and it will not remain open forever. It is available now, but one day it will be too late to seek Him. We are in the last days of the end time.
