"I have not spoken in secret or in any place of the darkness of the earth, nor said to the seed of Jacob, Seek me in vain: I, the Lord, speak the truth, and proclaim the right." (Isaiah 45:19)
"Look for me!" This is an exhortation of the Lord often repeated in the Scriptures. But if God exhorts us to seek Him, then it must also be possible to find Him. But how will we find Him? Now this is no secret. The only necessary condition the Lord mentions through the prophet Jeremiah: "... when you search for me with all your heart, I will be found of you ..." It makes no sense to pray or to hold prayer meetings if we do not do it with all our heart . In Jeremiah 48:10, the Lord says, "Cursed be he who does the work of the Lord in peace." Praying is a glorious thing, but also dangerous, for if we do not seek the Lord with our whole heart, then all is in vain. The only correct indication for our journey, the much needed direction, is received only in the presence of the Lord when we seek Him with sincerity.
Great message! Thanks for sharing, I'm not sure what version you've got it from or if it's a typing error but the word 'peace' doesn't appear in any of the 20+ bible translations on biblegateway.com
It should read, 'Cursed be the one who does the Lord’s work negligently/deceitfully/carelessly.
God bless!
