He who earnestly seeks
good finds favor, But trouble will come to him who seeks evil. (Proverbs 11:27
NKJV)
He affirms that anyone
who seeks will find and will never be disappointed. Those who seek trouble will
end up in trouble. Those who seek defect and something wrong with their health
and spend much with hi-tech tests to probe their body will find what they look
for.
God has set the system -
when you seek you will find. When you ask you will be given. When you knock the
door will be opened unto you. Hence, one must set in his mind and heart to seek
only good, favors and blessings - the things that are of God.
There once was a young
fool who embarks on a journey to seek his fortune. He immediately came upon an
old man who invited him to live with him in his castle to be heir of his vast
empire as he has no descendants. But he refused, saying 'thank you but no sir.
I am on a journey to search for my fortune.' Off he goes on, which lead him to stumble upon
a young beautiful heiress who invited him to be her husband, to share with her vast wealth, as she had no
one with her. But again he refused, to continue in his search for his fortune
which took him face to face of a hungry wolf, who asked him: how have you been
young man? To which he replied with pride, 'I am in search for my fortune, Mr.
Wolf. Along my way here, I met an old man who wanted me to inherit his vast
empire, and a young wealthy heiress who invited me to be her husband. But, I refused them both. You see Mr. Wolf, I am on a journey to seek
my fortune.' With that, the hungry wolf leaped with joy and said 'what a
fortune indeed for me!'
Let's not be like
that fool, who missed and just passed by the fortunes he had encountered and
ended up in misfortune. Let's be wise. Let's seek first thing first. Lord Jesus
gives this command: "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and
all these things will be given to you as well. (Matthew 6:33 NIV)
And I say ... AMEN!
