Isaiah 55:6 · KJV

"Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:"

King James Version

Passage Context

⁴Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

⁵Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

⁶Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

⁷Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

⁸For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

Devotional Reflection

LovePeaceGratitudeHope

God is always close to people who truly want to find Him. The real problem is that we lose interest in Him, drift away from Him, and leave His presence. So let's seek Him and accept His grace and help, knowing that He is the only one who can truly save us.

Prayer

I sincerely seek You, O Father. I want to know You and be known by You as a tender father knows his child and as a child feels complete trust toward his tender father, even as I seek to learn about You through Your Word. Father, please be more than just my God; please be real to me in ways that defy explanation. Please make Yourself known to me so that I may feel Your proximity. In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen.

Prayer

Father, I want You with everything I have. I want to learn about You through Your Word, but I also want to know You and be known by You like a loving father knows his child and like a child trusts his loving father completely. Father, be my God and also real to me in ways that can't be explained. Help me feel how close You are and know that You are there. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
