"Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, 'A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, from Syria; and they are in Hazazon Tamar' (which is En Gedi). And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the Lord, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah." 2 Chronicles 20.2-3The devil works with a threatening word, to spread fear, and especially terror. He does not usually use the opponents as much as he does the people who are closest to us. That's right. He often uses those in which we trust most. However it may be, as the example of Jehoshaphat, when terror comes, start seeking the Lord and fasting immediately. The spirit of fear does not stand.

Who wants to drink?
“The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, their tongues fail for thirst. I, the LORD, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them." Isaiah 41.17
The faith that pleases God is the certainty that He will do what He promised and taking action. Unfortunately, most Christians have not seen the manifestation of God's power because they expect to "feel the faith" and only then take action. That is, they want to see in order to believe. So, they cannot take possession of the Biblical promises.
The ancient heroes of faith believed, acted out on their belief and then saw the fulfillment of God's Word.

At the beginning of your suplications...
"At the beginning of your supplications the command went out, and I have come to tell you, for you are greatly beloved..." Daniel 9.23Daniel made a purpose of fasting and prayer in search for a revelation and the Lord heard him. In the faith of Daniel, we will also seek, not a revelation, but the Spirit of the One who reveals. And those who engage in this faith will also be visited by the Baptizer, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Never forget
"Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the Lord: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you were dug." Isaiah 51.1Those who seek shall find.
We found righteousness and we found the Lord. But in order for us not to forget what He has done for us, not even for one second, we must always remember where we came from - how difficult it was for Him to yank us out of the jaws of hell and the pit of destruction we were in.

PROMISE OF MY FATHER
"Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city until you are endued with power from on high" Luke 24:49Only those who believe will receive this power. Those who believe ask, seek, knock, strive, fight, that is, they are willing to sacrifice all worldly desires. Everyone is entitled to receive blessings. However, the Blessing of all blessings is reserved only for those who make a difference through acts of living faith.

Seek First
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:33
When we allow the Lord Jesus to reign in us,
He has the freedom to guide our lives according to His will. Therefore all the
areas of our lives are blessed in a very natural way.

Grace before God
" Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:16He who seeks and perseveres in the ways of the Spirit of God, receives the strength to fight and overcome in tribulation times.

If you love Him
"I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently will find me." Proverbs 8:17
If the first motive of satisfaction in life is the Lord, then He'll reveal His greatness and give the Holy Spirit to guide to green pastures.

Whole heart
"...But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul." Deuteronomy 4:29
Sincerity and faith are essential tools in order to come to God's presence. If these are absent, time and distance unite in order to make the access to His Throne more difficult.

Pit
"Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the LORD: Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you were dug."Isaiah 51:1
Those who seek justice is found by the Lord of justice. Wherever they are, even in the deepest pit, God will find them and hear their soul's cry.

Thirsty
"For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, and My blessing on your offspring; "
Isaías 44:3
He who seeks to drink from the Fountain, Living Waters will flow from within him, and in time, so will his family enjoy the same.

Hidden treasure
"Yes, if you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures;"
Proverbs 2:3-4
He who asks, receives, who seeks, finds. But he who values wisdom will certainly have guidance for life and many riches.

Seek
"The LORD looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God." Psalms 14:2
God knows those who seek Him, those who truly desire to have an intimate marvellous relationship with Him. And He knows the hypocrites very well too, those who only desire to show off but their hearts are far from His purposes.

Goodness
"And now, Master God, being the God you are, speaking sure words as you do, and having just said this wonderful thing to me, please, just one more thing: Bless my family; keep your eye on them always." 2 Samuel 7:28
I will not seek anyone else but Your goodness. I wait and trust in Your Promises, for You are the True God.

IF
"If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
IF the people of God humble themselves, pray, seek His face and turn away from their wrong ways, THEN they will be heard and forgiven. This is the condition so that God may hear your cry. Humbling yourself means emptying yourself completely. Praying means talking to God and seeking His face relates to getting closer to Him. And finally, conversion means changing of attitude in concerning sin, in other words, abandoning it for good.

Faith and Action
The times are bad; everyone is facing difficulties. However, God expects each person to live by exercising the faith that they have received. Faith is action. Those who act, conquer; but those who don't act, don't conquer.
"Ask and it shall be given unto you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you." Matthew 7:7
"Ask and it shall be given unto you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you." Matthew 7:7
