What Are You Desiring In A Season Of Wisdom????!!!!!!

Jeremiah 29

We are walking in today:  What Are You Desiring In A Season Of Wisdom????!!!!!!

Witness require throughout the Bible:  H1245 baqash--to seek, require,  desire, exact, request

1 Samuel 20:16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require H1245 it at the hand of David's enemies.

The Torah testifies.........……
 Genesis 31:39 That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I bare  the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require H1245 it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.

The prophets proclaim..................
 Nehemiah 5:12 Then said they, We will restore them, and will require H1245 nothing of them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise.

 The writings bear witness............
  Ecclesiastes 3:15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth H1245 that which is past

Isaiah 1:12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required  H1245 this at your hand, to tread my courts?


Jeremiah chapter 29 and its entirety focus verse 13
You will seek me and find me if you search for me with all your heart.
What are you seeking today? (John 1:38) The Spirit of the Living Most High calls out, “Seek Me and live” (Amos 5:4). If you are feeling empty today, ask The Most High to feed you with His life-giving food. Ask Him for energy, power and strength. Seek The Most High and His goodness. He is faithful and true and will surely answer the sincere cry of the heart: “You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.”
“You will seek me and find me if you search for me with all your heart” (Jer. 29:13)
Note that this verse includes the implication that we will discover that The Most High is the answer to our heart’s cry for love, significance, purpose, etc., when we search for Him with all our hearts (but not the other way around). In other words, if we do not search for The Most High authentically with the full passion of our hearts- then we will not find Him, since The Most High only reveals Himself in the truth of reality. Some things in life are only known in the passion of faith. Things like love, beauty, honor, and so on. The heart has its reasons that reason knows not of.
The problem with many of us is not that we are so hungry, but rather that we are not hungry enough. We settle for junk food when The Most High spreads out his banqueting table before us. There is a “deeper hunger” for life, and I pray we are all touched by such hunger pangs; there is a “blessed hunger and thirst” that feeds our heart’s cry for The Most High (Matt. 5:6); there is a “divine discontent” that leads to a deeper sense of contentment for the heart.
In the end, if we cannot say we have lived well, then nothing else matters. Seeking The Most High is a process, a “how” of life, not a recipe or formula, no matter how venerated. Seeking The Most High is the goal of life, and in the world to come, I am afraid that most of us will regret that we did not pursue the Eternal with all our hearts while we had the opportunity to do so.
Shema Selah our hearts should be positioned upon the desires of the Most High!!
