What does the Bible say about desiring God above all else?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes the importance of loving and desiring God more than anything on earth, as expressed in Psalm 73:25.

Psalm 73:25 encapsulates the believer's deep desire for God, stating, 'Whom have I in heaven but thee? And there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.' This poignant declaration highlights the exclusive love and devotion we should have for God, contrasting with the fleeting and transient nature of earthly desires. Asaph’s confession reflects a profound understanding that earthly pleasures, achievements, and even relationships pale in comparison to the eternal joy found in God. The desire for God must be rooted in recognizing His attributes—His love, grace, and eternal significance.
