Job 23:3
"Oh that I knew where I might find him!
that I might come even to his seat!"
It was God, Job was seeking. Job desired to find God as a judge sitting on His throne. Job doing right, thought that he might have justice done to him: indeed he might be under the hidings of God's face, which added to his affliction, and made his case heavier; Job wanted access to God, however he was at a loss to know where He is, and "how" to find Him.
We know that God is everywhere. We know that our God is in the heavens, His throne is there, "Yes, Heaven is His Throne;" He is in his church, and among His people, where they are gathered together in His name. Are we really at a loss to know where God is and "how" to find Him? No we are not because we cannot contain ourselves without seeking after Him, and making use of all means of finding Him, as Job did.
One might come even to His seat; either His mercy seat, from where He communes with His people. The throne of His grace, where He sits as the God of grace, dispensing his Grace to his people, to help them in time of need; the way to which is Christ, and in which all believers may come to it with boldness, in his name, through his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice; they may come up even to it, in the exercise of faith and hope.
My Friends, We are never at loss when it comes to seeking God. Job felt that he was at a loss and God would not answer, because Job was going through a test o faith. "For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened," (Matt. 7:8).
Amen!
