What does it mean to 'look unto God'?

Answered in 1 source

'Looking unto God' means turning away from all distractions and placing complete trust and reliance on Him for salvation.

'Looking unto God' is a profound act of faith where one acknowledges God as the ultimate source of salvation and assistance. As illustrated in the sermon, this involves turning from sin, self, and worldly pursuits to focus solely on Christ, who is our hope. In Isaiah 45:22, when God commands us to look upon Him, He invites us to believe in His promises and provision. This act also encompasses worship, reverence, and an understanding that our need for salvation can only be met through Him. Therefore, 'looking to God' captures both the internal response of faith and the external act of seeking fellowship and guidance from Him.
Scripture References: Isaiah 45:22, Hebrews 12:2
