Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Sometimes, when life happens, we will find ourselves bruised with burden. In our desperation, we will approach God asking Him to intervene. We cry out, “Lord help!” We recognize God is the only one than can do anything about what we’re experiencing. And we have honest expectations that God will give us what we ask. As a matter of fact, he tells us in His word, that if you pray to Him have faith that He’s able. But I want to pose this question for thought:
Are we seeking God or seeking His blessings?
This verse says that God rewards those that diligently seek Him, not seek His blessings. Sometimes, we attempt to connect to God so we can qualify for His blessings. Outside of His blessings, we don’t really have a desire to know God. We treat Him like He’s a sugar daddy. Give Him a lil bit so that He can give us a lot. Is He more than blessings? Is He more than what He does for you? Do you seek Him only because of what He can do for you or do you seek Him because of Who He is? Diligently seek Him.
