Ps 27:8 You have said, Seek My face [inquire for and require My presence as your vital need]. My heart says to You, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek, inquire for, {and} require [of necessity and on the authority of Your Word].

Ps 27:9 Hide not Your face from me; turn not Your servant away in anger, You Who have been my help! Cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation!

As I was in prayer and wondering why do God have to speak so hard through His messengers to captive His children... Why is the message of intimacy constantly coming across...Why is it that relationship in spirit of truth so hard?....

I was then reminded of the title What is the extent of your ambition for God?...Intimacy begins once you radically purse God with every fiber of your being....To learn to submit even your thoughts and opinions to God...Everything!!!!

God says SEEK MY FACE....and out of that announcement many will say yes caught up in the moment...Many will say I will SEEK YOU LORD and might for some days....But because they have a limited ambition for God it only last duration of their extension...

So it does not matter how much the MOUTH cry out if there is no ambition if there is no extension in your seek daily then your seek is limited....

The question is what is the extent of your ambition for God?....How much are you willing to let go of, and gain?...Yes we often talking about dieing to flesh but we also have to gain life in the spirit...

Ps 46:10 Let be {and} be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!

In the seek of God's face, you have to be still.....Be still here " literally means to cease from striving....Cease from trying to seek any other way...It means to let go and relax, REST in God....To turn down the volume of the world and listen strictly to God....To know His voice even spoken through His people... It's getting still and coming into a place of knowing your extent of your ambition of God....

Often in the quest of seeking God's face many feel God is hiding Himself from them...It is because of the extent of the ambition one have in what and whom...God wants us to press in and peruse Him daily not just once and say God now you come after me,..Often we stand at the altar and resist a repentance from another man's thought and maybe heart and call that a seek...To agree to Word means more than just hearing it is also doing...This seek is action it takes spiritual and physical strength....It takes ambition...

Notice that your ambition have to be in seeking God's face...It have to be in Knowing Him not of Him...What is the extent of your ambition in God and not in the STUFF that He can offer...BUT in His Holiness, Righteousness, in His complete being...

In His Sovereignty...Would your ego and ambition let you listen to God?...Often we only hear what we want to hear accord to the extent of ambition...Most only hear the Blessings of God and reject the corrections...Be still...

What are we calling success in God?... What are we looking for from God?...What are we willing to die to and life to in God?...

God is calling us a sheep and sending us out in the midst of wolves...We have to be willing to go out and look for no returns...We have to be willing to Die for the very message...Do we truly want life in God or still in this world?...Are we still trying to make friends or connect to a Body....Are we willing to lose the very identity that we have created to go on the potter's wheel?....What is the extent of the ambition for God...

Once we learn to be still then we can listen and hear all that God is saying...The more available you are to God the more you will know and recognize God in His ways....

Is 64:4 For from of old no one has heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who works {and} shows Himself active on behalf of him who [earnestly] waits for Him.
