No one seeks God.
Romans 3:11
Because we are by nature dead to God, every person who becomes a God-seeker has experienced three miracles:
- The self-revealing God has chosen to make Himself known. That’s a miracle!
- God raised from the dead his or her ability to know Him. That’s a miracle!
- God put in that person a desire to seek Him. That’s a miracle!
Today, when you encounter the manifest presence of Christ, make sure you celebrate these three miracles:
- The miracle of God’s Self-revelation to you.
- The miracle of God giving us the ability to know Him.
- The miracle of God putting within us the desire to seek His face.
Hallelujah, what a Savior! Hallelujah, what a gracious self-revealing God You are. Praise You for activating my receptors, changing my nature, and giving me a desire to turn and seek Your face.
This daily Christ-encountering, fire-starter is not intended to replace your daily Bible reading and prayer time, but rather to motivate you to spend extended time in His presence.
YEAR ON FIRE
