The Seeking God Study

Purpose

-To show how much we need God. To show how much God wants us.

-To give practical advice and support about how to effectively (Biblically) seek God.

Matthew 7:7-8

-What does this passage promise?

-What does that mean for you?

-If finding God is guaranteed, then this is a worthwhile pursuit!

Matthew 7:13-14

-This verse seems to contradict 7:7-8. How can it be that: “everyone who seeks finds,” but, “only a few find it?”

-So, there is a certain way to seek God that guarantees we’ll find him. How should we search after God to be sure we’ll find him?

-There are only two roads. If you had to choose which road you are on right now, what would you honestly choose? Why?

Matthew 6:33

-According to this verse how are we to seek? What priority is God in our lives? What would a person’s life look like who seeks God first?

-Have you been seeking God first? If not, what have you put before God? What keeps you from making God your top priority?

-What does it mean to seek his kingdom? His righteousness? How could you start seeking his kingdom and his righteousness first?

Luke 13:22-28

-What is something in your life that you have made every effort at?

-What would it look like for you to make every effort in seeking God?

Acts 8:26-39

-In what ways do you see this Eunuch making every effort? How do you see God fulfilling the promise of Matthew 7:7-8?

Key Questions:

-God will stop at nothing to love you and be in a relationship with you. Will you seek him first?

-What changes will you need to make in your life to have God as your first priority?
