Isaiah 55:6-7
Excerpted from: Going On to PerfectionNotice that! While He may be found. He has already been revealed. We know from the New Testament that He cannot be found unless He reveals Himself. He has already revealed Himself to the Israelitish people. And so the advice and admonishment to the Israelites is:
I hope you can tell from the context there that "seek" in the context in which it is used (this is most of the time in the Old Testament), with the understanding that God has already revealed Himself to the Israelites. He did not reveal Himself to the degree that He has revealed Himself to you and me, but He did reveal Himself sufficient for His purpose for them, for something that was merely material. But for us, the revelation has been much greater, because He has revealed Himself to us for spiritual purposes, that we might be born of Him into His Family.
In actuality, then, understanding that God has already revealed Himself to us, “seek Me” means “turn to Me.” That is explained right there in verse 7:
Is that not clear? That is what “seek Me” means.
