How to Receive the Spirit – Seek Him
Matthew 7:7 New International Version – “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
We already discussed about the asking level of the Lord. The tool for asking is the mouth, but when it comes to “seeking”, you need to go a step further where you couple your words with some desperate actions; this is a surety that you are really in need of what you are asking. At this point you are not just asking again but seeking.
A typical example of seeking in the bible is the widow who kept on going to ask justice from the church in Luke 18:1-8; our Christian walk will never come on a silver platter, God’s elect. We need to keep on pushing irrespective of the resistance we face in seeking the Lord in anyway.
Confession
In the Name of Jesus, I receive the power to keep on seeking the things of the Spirit; amen!
