My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today is from the book of 2 Chronicles 26:5 , “He sought God in the days, of Zechariah who had understanding in the visions, of God and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper”.
This Zechariah was one that had understanding, of the visions of God. Zechariah the prophet, was well versed in prophesy. He was intelligent, devout, good man and had great influence with Uzziah. This brought a great change in shaping Uzziah. Zechariah the prophet guided king Uzziah to walk in the fear of God. King Uzziah was good in character. His great prosperity in his wars, his buildings and all the affairs, of his kingdom, proved his courage , valor, and capability. Though he was not very eminent or zealous, in his piety yet he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. He kept up the pure worship of the true God. Such great men are happy because they are willing to be advised by them. They are true seekers of God. Some seek God for worldly benefits but Uzziah was not so. He did not worship idols. Instead he sought Jehovah the living God and therefore prospered.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Do you seek God wholeheartedly like Uzziah. Do you have friendship with good believers, god fearing people. Are you wasting your time with worldly friends who give you momentary pleasure. People usually have the tendency to seek after money, fame, recreation, entertainment, and materialism. All of those things only lead to emptiness. However seeking God, brings more value to our live than anything else on this earth. The Bible clearly says, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be given unto you as well”. Seek God regardless of your life situation. The Bible says, King Hezekiah prayed for the people saying , May the Lord who is good, pardon every one, who sets their hearts, on seeking God. And the Lord heard Hezekiah and healed the people. Dear Brothers and Sisters, seek God because He is looking for you. He looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. Seek God and Be blessed.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord teach us never to let go of God from our heart. Help us not to lose Him from our lives. Thank You Lord for opening our eyes to realize how important, it is to seek the Lord. May we be loyal to the Lord, all the days of our life. Thank You Lord for your mercy and grace that enables us to prosper in our lives. Make us successful in our lives since we trust in you. In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
