On your Web site I notice you stated: “Psalm 27 is my prayer for this new chapter in my life.” That is a wonderful choice Will, I really like, (Psalms 27:7-8). “Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and ANSWER ME. When You said, “SEEK MY FACE,” My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I WILL SEEK.” God is willing to be known by us Will. He is willing to open and reveal Himself to us. God delights in not hiding Himself. God does not stand like earthly Kings, thinking His presence would diminish our respect for Him. God is no such God, but He is VERY WILLING for us to search Him out, and truly, intimately know Him.
“Glory in his holy name; LET THE HEARTS OF THOSE WHO SEEK THE LORD REJOICE. Look to the LORD and His strength; 1SEEK HIS FACE ALWAYS.” (Psa. 105:3-4) 1baw-kash’: to search out for an intimate relationship, specifically, in worship or prayer. Therefore, we want to ‘seek’ His face because that is how we become better acquainted with our Abba Father! The true nature of spiritual worship; is seeking the face of God. This is in God’s desire of us: “SEEK MY FACE”; He would have us seek Him for Himself, and make seeking His favour our foremost pursuit; and this is what our purpose and desire should be: “Your face, Lord, will I seek”,knowing that nothing could be more important! Not unlike the first time you as a child look into your fathers eyes and you KNOW he recognizes you! “Grace and peace be yours in abundance THROUGH THE 2KNOWLEDGE of God and of Jesus our Lord.” (2 Peter 1:2) 2epignōsis: which implies a ‘mark’ of intimacy or FULLY KNOWING SOMEONE.
