Verse from 1 Chronicles

要寻求耶和华和他的能力,常常寻求他的面。
历代志上 16:11 

“Seek the LORD and His strength; Seek His face continually.”
1 Chronicles 16:11 

1 Chronicles 16:11 was part of a psalm celebrating the return of the ark of the covenant to Jerusalem. It recounts God’s faithfulness to His people in their struggles throughout history, reminding them to always praise Him and “cry out” to Him (v. 35).


What does it mean to “seek [God’s] face”? It means we turn our hearts toward Him in even the most mundane moments. Sometimes our prayers are answered differently than our asking, but God is faithful come what may. Our Good Shepherd will direct our paths and keeps us in His mercy, strength, and love. May we declare our dependence on Him.
