God wants people to turn quickly to God for help. Hope and answers are found in seeking God, especially in times of personal struggles. Life embraces more than physical existence, it includes a relationship with God. Believers are to be zealous and seek the things of God and reject anything that is not of Him, to understand the importance of knowing Him, His truth and holiness. Life is to be lived for God and not self.
Earthly life is temporary.
Spiritual life that comes through faith in Christ is a foretaste of the life believers who have sought God will enjoy in the new heaven and the new earth. True life with God is the work of The Holy Spirit and is abundant life. The Holy Spirit makes obedience to God possible to those who seek to receive revelation and guidance of His purposes. God is at work in all that happens to believers to warn, to correct, to test, to exercise faith, to purify and to benefit others. God draws His people near to Himself for them to receive His goodness.
