King James Version
10 I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins,
even to give every man according to his ways,
and according to the fruit of his doings.
Scripture says GOD looks for something in man.
What does the LORD look for?
What does He seek from us?
Here's what Scripture reveals:
God looks for any that understand.

upon the children of men,
to see if there were any that did understand,
and seek God.
God looks for the righteous.
Romans 3:9-10
King James Version
9 What then? are we better than they?
No, in no wise: for we have before proved
both Jews and Gentiles,
that they are all under sin;
10 As it is written,
There is none righteous,
no, not one:
God looks for those that seek Him.
Romans 3:11
King James Version
11 There is none that understandeth,
there is none that seeketh after God.
God looks for one who does good.

they are together become unprofitable;
there is none that doeth good,
no, not one.
God looks for contrite hearts.

King James Version
7 He looketh upon men,
and if any say, I have sinned,
and perverted that which was right,
and it profited me not;
28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit,
and his life shall see the light.
29 Lo, all these things worketh God
oftentimes with man,
30 To bring back his soul from the pit,
to be enlightened with the light of the living.
God looks for one who has faith.
Luke 18:8
King James Version
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily.
Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh,
shall he find faith on the earth?
God looks for those who believe in His Son.

That we should believe
on the name of his Son Jesus Christ,
God looks for those who love one another.

That we should believe
on the name of his Son Jesus Christ,
and love one another,
as he gave us commandment.
God looks for those who care to know all about Him.
Hosea 6:6
King James Version
6 For I desired mercy,
and not sacrifice;
and the knowledge of God
more than burnt offerings.
If we honestly seek God, He will show up.
He looks for that humble heart.
He looks for those who care to listen.
He looks for those who wish to repent.
JESUS always sends out the invitation.
How many heed His call?
