Day Ten of Seeking

As the Fire of God's Presence saturates our lives, we begin to recognize the small changes that will take place. At first it is the thought or realization that something wrong needs to be made right.

When we experience of God's Presence in our lives, the more we will want to know about Him. There will be a sudden thirst for His Word and for knowledge about His ways. We will want to please Him, so we MUST know what He want sin our life. This thirst is satisfied when we begin to read His Word and hide it in our hearts (Psalm 199:11) so that we will not sin against Him.

There will be a desire to be around His people. We live in a day when commitment seems to be a thing of the past. People changes relationships on a regular basis, whether in their marriage, their employment or their church. They are looking for something to satisfy, but the only thing that will satisfy them is to be in the company of committed, dedicated followers of God. (Hebrews 10:25)

We will want to know about His ways, so we will begin to look for mentors to help cultivate the experience we've just had and we will want someone to speak the truth to us.

By understanding these basic facts we begin to renew our mind (Ephesians 4:23) as we submit our lives to His will. On Day Ten of seeking, we ask God to help us with commitment. We ask Him to help us to have clear thoughts, and we ask for His Word to come alive in our lives.
