God Chasers Daily Devotion-Day #3- Focus On His Face. It is time to to get close to God. Time to seek His Face! Seek Him & He will find You! (P.K.)
God is everywhere, but He doesn’t turn His face and His favor everywhere. That is why He tells us to seek His face. Yes, He is present with you every time you meet with other believers in a worship service, but how long has it been since your hunger caused you to crawl up in His lap, and like a child, to reach up and take the face of God to turn it toward you? Intimacy with Him! That is what God desires, and His face should be our highest focus.
(The God Chasers, 38)
Reflection by Pastor Kevin
The Lord desires to have an intimate relationship with each of us. He waits for us with expectancy. He wants to shower us with His presence. It is up to us. We have to pursue Him. We have to chase God until He catches Us! To see the features of someone's face you have to be very close to them. God desires us to be so close to Him that we see the love and firmness of his countenance. He wants us to see the love, fire, peace and Holiness in His eyes.
Deuteronomy 4:29 says we will find Him if we seek Him with all our heart & soul.. Proverbs 8:17 say those who seek Him find Him. Jeremiah 29:13 says we will find Him if we seek Him with all our hearts. Isaiah 55:6 says, seek the Lord while He can be found, call to Him while He is near. James 4:8 says: Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you. Cleanse your hands you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double minded. (KJV)
It is time we made up our mind to seek after the Lord. it is time to seek His face. It is Time to get so close to God that we can see in His eyes and feel His breath while smelling the fragrance of the anointing and His Mighty presence. Make a decision today to seek Him with all you have and let nothing get in your way of seeking Him so that He can find you!!! (P.K.)

Amen Pastor! Let's seek His face to the point that everywhere we go we see more of Him than our flesh sees in our surroundings! If we walk with His Eyes and His heart we will see more of the things that need Him than what we need!
