Seek My Face

"You have said, Seek My face [inquire for and require My presence as your vital need]. My heart says to You, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek, inquire for, and require [of necessity and on the authority of Your Word]" (Psalm 27:8 AMP). Lord, You have told us to seek your face. So, I have made up my mind to seek you, to seek your face. There is no other presence I would rather get into but yours, Father. David knew that the Lord was his only refuge. He knew he could always rely on Him. The Lord was his life and his salvation. David also understood that the Lord was a stronghold of his life and that when he was in that stronghold, his foes and enemies would stumble and fall. David found peace and rest in the refuge of the Lord, behind the stronghold of the Lord. When the enemies encamped against him and though war rose against him, David's heart did not fear. David had confidence in the one true God, and sought Him and inquired of Him the rest of his life. The Lord is our hiding place in the time of trouble. He's our shelter, and just like King David, the Lord will also set us upon the Rock. Those who trust Him will be lifted up higher than the enemies that surround them. We have to seek His face. Seek and inquire of the Lord, and He will hear our prayers.
