How can one truly seek God according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that seeking God begins with a heart drawn by His grace, as seen in John 6:65.

Seeking God requires an awakening that only He can provide. John 6:65 states, 'No man can come to me, except it were given unto him of my Father.' This illuminates the doctrine of divine enablement: it is God who initiates our desire for Him. Therefore, true seeking is not a product of human effort but a response to God's drawing. Isaiah 55:6-7 urges, 'Seek ye the Lord while he may be found; call ye upon him while he is near.' This verse underscores the urgency and brevity of opportunity to seek God. When God grants a heart willing to seek Him, one will turn away from their sinful paths and earnestly search for His mercy. Hence, the quest for God must be rooted in His grace, prompting us to humble ourselves before Him and depend wholly on His saving power.
