Summary
If you're frightened, anxious, or uncertain, begin to seek the Lord. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it means to seek the Lord, offering insight on why it's important, and how to begin. He highlights people from the Bible who sought the Lord and were helped—and those who didn't. Jesus didn't die on the cross so we could remain infants—maturing in our faith is essential to our God-assignments. As we grow in our understanding of the Lord and His character, we become equipped to pursue His purposes, instead of our own. It's time to seek the Lord!
