SEEK FIRST, WITH US

We delight in our Outcomes Conference 2025 Experience Guides, but we know that the Holy Spirit will guide all who believe. This week, we encourage you to meditate on these scriptures. Whether you are joining us in Dallas or God has you serving in other places, we invite you to seek God with us!

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

-Jeremiah 29:13

But seek first his kingdom and righteousness, and all these things will also be given to you. 

~ Matthew 6:33

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.”

~ Matthew 7:7-8

“And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him”.

~Hebrews 11:6

 “If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.”
