*PHANEROO~DEVOTION* Sunday, 1st June 2025 Apostle Grace Lubega *John 6:27 (KJV):* Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life… *WHY WE SEEK HIM* There’s a powerful promise embedded in Scripture: “Those that seek Him shall find Him” (Jeremiah 29:13). Yet, it matters how we seek and why we seek. In John 6, Jesus had just performed the miracle of feeding thousands with loaves and fish. The next day, the crowd searched for Him—not for His words of life, but for more food. Jesus discerned their hearts and responded with a loving yet confronting truth: “You seek me not because you saw the miracles, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled” (John 6:26). Herein lies a caution: it is possible to “seek” God and yet miss Him. When we come to God only for temporary needs—money, comfort, success, or solutions—we risk turning our spiritual pursuit into a transaction. But the Lord invites us into something deeper. He calls us to seek Him, not just His hand, but His heart. Not what perishes, but what remains forever. To seek God rightly is to desire Him above all our physical pursuits. It is to hunger for His truth, His righteousness and His presence. Our desire should be for the eternal and not what feeds physical appetites. Hallelujah! *FURTHER STUDY:* Matthew 6:33; Jeremiah 29:13 *GOLDEN NUGGET:* It is possible to “seek” God and yet miss Him. When we come to God only for temporary needs—money, comfort, success, or solutions—we risk turning our spiritual pursuit into a transaction. But the Lord invites us into something deeper. He calls us to seek Him, not just His hand, but His heart. Not what perishes, but what remains forever. *PRAYER:* Father, I thank You for this word. Forgive me where I have sought You only for what You can do for me, and not for who You are. Help me to seek You with a pure heart—hungering not for perishable things, but for eternal life found only in You. Stir in me a deeper desire to know You, to love You, and to follow You wholeheartedly. Teach me to labor for what endures, and to always value Your presence above all else. In Jesus’ name, Amen. bit.ly/WhenHeavenAnnouncesYou *#phaneroodevotion📜*
