Every one that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth. ([Mat. 7 : 8].)
Those that seek me early shall find me. ([Prov. 8 : 17].)
God is Not to be Found by Those who Seek him.
Then shall they call upon me but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but shall not find me. ([Prov. 1 : 28].)
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers I will not hear. ([Is. 1 : 15].)
They cried, but there was none to save them; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not. ([Ps. 18 : 41].)
