'Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore' (Psalm 105:4).
We are admonished to seek the Lord and his strength, and to seek His face continually. We don't only need physical strength in our daily lives, but also spiritual strength, which can only be found in Christ. Spiritual strength also assist us in exercising grace as we do the will of God. It is important for us as God's Children to commune daily with him, through prayer, the study of His Word and exercising of our faith. As believers, we should seek to put ourselves under the protection of the Lord and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and look onto His omnipotence and mighty providence. Let us seek God's strength and desire his presence, and his favour towards us. We must never cease to seek the Lord! The Word of God implore us to seek Him; His strength and His face. Therefore, it behoves us to seek His face and seek to have his favour to eternity. In Christ, the solid Rock, is the fulness of joy, as we come before Him, in his presence to behold his glory, and to have our joy fulfilled before his face. In seeking God, we are watching for him and his work on a daily basis, as we journey life's rugged path. We must surely pay attention to the Almighty, most Holy God, from the moment we rise up to the moment we lay our heads to rest at night. We must be intentional in seeking the Lord, trust and rely on Him; honour Him with our heart and soul, because of who He is and what he has done for us. We are to seek the Lord, his strength and his presence all the days of our lives, that we may live a purposeful and fulfilled life. Let us learn to be open to His guidance, his wisdom and his strength as we seek his face evermore. May God grant us strength and grace as we fellowship with Him and each other.
Have a wonderful day

The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and
