Seek *Him*

But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord. 

Seek the Lord and His strength, seek His face continually.  Now set your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God. For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the Lord, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments. And they that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee: for Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee.  

The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek Him: your heart shall live for ever. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the Lord understand all things.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Seek ye out of the book of the Lord, and read. Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the Rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 

Seek ye the Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near. Why seek ye the living among the dead?  Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto Him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid Him, and I will take Him away. For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. The Lord is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seeketh Him. 
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till He come and rain righteousness upon you.  Seek Him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is His name. 

Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts, shall be with you.  Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.  

When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither His disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus. There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Only fear the Lord, and serve Him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things He hath done for you.
