Numbers 6:25 The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: Numbers 12:8 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the Lord shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses? Numbers 14:14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou Lord art among this people, that thou Lord art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night. Psalm 30:7 Lord, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.

Isaiah 8:17 And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. Isaiah 54:8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the Lord thy Redeemer. Lamentations 2:19 Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street. Daniel 9:17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

Luke 1:76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; Luke 10:1 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
I don't know about you, but I am seeking the face of the Lord! He is more than able! It is He that is more than able to heal our land! We need healing in America! He is saying at this time--2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Fiveamprayer, seek Him! He wants us to come back to Him. We need to restore our relationship with the Father! This is the time to seek His face! Lord, show us Your glory, for Your power to manifest and show up like never before! We are no longer moved by our the needs in the natural, we are seeking after heavenly treasures, things that are of our Father! We are seeking out those things of great value that will never tarnish nor fade! We want to obedient and humble before You, Lord. We wanna hear from You. You promised to never to leave nor forsake us! So we know that You are still here and we are seeking Your face. We want to draw closer to You. To be like David--Psalm 27:4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. We are calling out to You! We come to You by faith, believing that You are all that we need! We come laying aside every weight that would so easily beset us! We come to cast our cares on You, for You care for us! As we look at You, we wanna see ourselves. More of You, Lord and less of us! We ask for Your wisdom, and more of Your word. Fiveamprayer, let us put on the whole armor of God. We wanna hear, well done My good and faithful servant. We are seeking a restored relationship with You. You told us that if we seek You first that You will take care of everything else. We set aside our agenda and plans--Isaiah 55:8-9 8) For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. 9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. We are to seek Him first--not things! As Pastor Taffe shared on yesterday, we are to seek the One who blesses and not the blessing! Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. What are you seeking first? If it is not God, get it right and turn from those wicked ways! Our thoughts are to be of Him and the things of His concern! Matthew 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. Make sure that you are seeking Him with all that you are with pure intentions in thoughts and heart. Keep seeking Him in His word. Seek His face in all things! God should be a part of every part of your life--He can not be placed in a box or shoved into a cupboard! Are you seeking Him and asking Him for mercy?! We need Him like never before. We have done so much that is worthy of His wrath and judgement, seek Him for His mercy that He spares us! And since we are asking for His mercy, let us also ask for the strength to turn away from the ways of the world and back to Him. That those things that are hooked in are removed, that we are no longer a prisoner to the wrong things. Get into His presence and remain, the things that are against Him can not reside in holy presence! Press in and keep on reading His word--spend time to read the scriptures out loud to yourself. There is something in the reading of scripture our loud. You see it and hear it so that the word in entering into you as well as your present atmosphere. It is also directed by God--Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. That, but thou shall meditate in the Hebrew is the word hagah which means--to moan, growl, utter, muse, mutter, meditate, speak: the growl as a lion over his prey; the murmuring of one musing over a thing to one's self; also to remember anything; the groaning and sighing of men. Take some time out today to read these scriptures out loud to yourself, that you get more of His word down on the inside of you! Proverbs 12:25 Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. Hebrews 3:15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. Psalm 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Psalm 37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. Time for a heart check--we must know what we have in our hearts, that is what leads our actions! If you are pursing, stalking and chasing God that is what is in your heart! Asking after Him, what shall I do, Father? Walking in obedience to all that He has told you--we know that obedience is better than sacrifice. That we will go where You say and speak what You direct us to speak. All things are working together for the good of those that love the Lord! Lay aside every weight! Those things in your life are deceiving you! They are not more important then the most high God! They that seek after Him, find Him! What are you seeking after?! He keeps coming to tell us, that if His people, who are called by His name would humble themselves, pray, and seek His face...that is what we must do, like never before! Take your mind and heart off of the things in this world, it should be firmly placed on things in heavenly places! We need a new mind set, our minds set on God's business, what are you going about doing? If you ask Jesus, He is about His Father's business. What business are you about?! Look to God in all things--He has the answer! Show us Your glory! We wanna see Your face, to reside in Your presence. We get up early seeking Your face! Jesus got up early too, with all power of heaven and earth in His hands! We are to watch and pray and seek His face! We are transformed by the renewing of our minds! Our minds are renewed by the meditation on His word. The muttering of His scriptures that we may continue in the way that He is directing us! Seek the Lord and His strength, forever more! His strength is made perfect in our weakness. We can do all things through Christ, which strengthens us! We are more than overcomes, more than conquers! We walk by faith and not by sight! Keep seeking His face, fiveamprayer! He gives us joy unspeakable, a peace that surpasses understanding. I dare you to seek His face! He will show up saying well done, My good and faithful servant. We come seeking You this morning, not making any requests. Lord, just have fiveamprayer to seek You like never before! We come to repent and ask for forgiveness, that You would wash us and restore us to right standing with You. Thank Your for casting our sins away, as far as the east is from the west. Thank You for forgiving us with no condemnation! Thank You for Your mercy and grace! Thank You for Your word, the word that we can stand on--the word that we are standing on! The word that can not be reversed nor return void! The same word that was wrapped in flesh to teach us and restore us back to You! Thank You for giving us scripture after scripture this morning! We are to seek Your face, to see healing of our land.
We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit: We are seeking Your face!
Welcome to the overflow...
Hallelujah Lord! Fiveamprayer is seeking Your face! Thank You Lord for Your promise to never leave nor forsake us! Many of us have turned away from our first love, now is the time to turn back! Seek His face like never before. You know when you spend so much time with someone, you start to look like them. The world should know that we have been seeking His face. Exodus 34:29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. Seek His face all day today! Visit us on facebook, it will encourage you! Have a blessed Memorial day, remember those who are no longer with us as well as all of the great things the Father has done for you! Amen, amen.
