Call Unto Him

"Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." — Jeremiah 33:3

This scripture reveals God's great love for Jeremiah. It was an open invitation for him to pray, seek God, and ask questions. God promised that He would answer and reveal things Jeremiah did not know.

Ask Him

Have you ever had a question that you longed for an answer for?

God is all-knowing, which means there is no question beyond His understanding. According to the dictionary, all-knowing means having infinite awareness, ultimate understanding, and complete knowledge of all things. God knows the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:9). As humans, we are limited by time, space, and experience. We learn things as they unfold from beginning to end, but God sees it all at once.

Even though we know God is all-knowing, many of us still seek answers from our peers before seeking Him.

Jesus said in John 15:16:

"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you."

This is an open invitation from God to bring our questions, concerns, and needs to Him. God is not just interested in answering life's big questions; He wants to be involved in every area of our lives.

Sometimes we assume that because God knows everything, He should answer our questions without us asking. But God desires relationship. He invites us to come humbly before Him, seek His wisdom, and ask for His help.

James 1:5 reminds us:

"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you."

The truth is, none of us knows everything. We all lack wisdom at times. The good news is that we don't have to remain confused or in the dark, we can ask God.

I emphasize asking God because, although Scripture tells us to "seek ye first the Kingdom of God", we often seek answers from family, friends, social media, or Google before seeking Him. While these resources can sometimes be helpful, they do not have complete knowledge of God's plan for our lives. Many times, they're simply offering their best guess.

Now, I'm not talking about seeking godly counsel or receiving wisdom from someone God is using.

But let's be honest, many of the people we consult aren't necessarily being led by the Spirit when they give advice.

Everything Isn't Deep

I've learned this lesson in my own life.

One day, I was trying to figure out why my baby was so fussy after eating. Like many parents, my first instinct was to search online. The internet offered countless possibilities, and I quickly became overwhelmed. I even purchased over-the-counter probiotic drops, thinking they would help. Instead, they seemed to make things worse.

Finally, I prayed and asked God for wisdom. I felt led to consider something much simpler: gas. I stopped using the probiotic drops and switched to gas drops, and they helped my son tremendously.

That experience reminded me that God cares about the small things. We don't have to come to Him only with deep spiritual questions. We can bring Him everyday concerns too.

I've even asked God what outfit to wear.

One time, I was attending a Bill Winston community event and asked God what color dress I should wear. I felt led to choose a simple blue summer dress. Throughout the event, I received compliment after compliment. To me, it felt like God was gently confirming that He cared enough to guide me, even in something as simple as choosing an outfit.

God wants us to ask Him questions. He wants to be part of our daily lives. He longs for relationship with us—not just during emergencies, but in the ordinary moments as well.

So today, I encourage you to stop looking to the world first for answers and start turning to God. The One who knows everything is waiting eagerly for you to call on Him. Whatever you need wisdom, guidance, or clarity about, ask Him.

He is listening, and He will answer.
