The Journey of the God-Seekers - Santosh Poonen - February 26, 2017
Part of Santosh Poonen Sermons - 2008-2018 · 39 of 185
Summary
The sermon warns against becoming sign-seekers, cautioning that focusing on signs rather than God Himself leads to spiritual decline. True god-seeking involves a journey characterized by becoming humble and dependent on God, maintaining no compromise in faith, embracing the role of an intercessor, receiving true revelation of God, and finally responding with genuine worship.
Description
http://rlcf.church/sermons/journey-god-seekers It is the root of spiritual adultery that causes people to be sign-seekers (Matthew 12:39; James 4:4-5). A sign is that which points to something else. Don’t make the sign your destination! If you do, your last state will become worse than the first (Matthew 12:45). Diligent GOD-seekers receive the reward — which is God Himself (Hebrews 11:6). Along the way, their journey consists of: 1. Becoming a nobody (John 9:6) — responding to God in faith (II Kings 5:10-14) and honesty (Mark 8:22-26). 2. No compromise (John 9:13-33) — freed from fear of your relatives and fear of religious people. 3. The Intercessor (John 9:34-35) — even if you feel all alone, Jesus is looking for you. 4. Revelation (John 9:36-37) — the second “eye-opening” (Matthew 11:25), when we receive knowledge of God Himself, beyond just His works (Psalm 103:7). 5. Worship (John 9:38) — the response that comes from within us when Jesus becomes preeminent (Colossians 1:18; Psalm 27:8). ---------- River of Life Christian Fellowship 1306 N Lincoln Avenue Loveland, Colorado - 80537, USA

The speaker emphasizes that God shows no partiality to anyone, meaning what He does for one, He can do for all who seek Him wholeheartedly. Finding God requires a sincere, all-heart search, as neglecting this pursuit leads to spiritual wandering. True spiritual fulfillment comes from earnestly desiring the Lord, much like the disciples on the road to Emmaus, which requires deep study of scripture.
