Psalm 53:2 reads “God looked down from heaven upon the children of men to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God”. It is only the fool who does not delight in understanding (Proverbs 18:2). It is better to get wisdom that gold and chose understanding over silver (Proverbs 16:16). In other words, wisdom and understanding are better than the things we deem wealth in this ephemeral world. In fact, understanding is the wellspring of life unto him that has it (Proverbs 16:22). The Bible also informs us that if we seek God, we shall find Him. But from Psalm 53:2, it is evident that God is seeking, but sadly, He is not finding the one He is looking for; one who understands and one who is seeking Him.
So today, if God looked down from heaven upon you/me, will he find you as the one, who has understanding and who is seeking Him? Will God find me as the one with understanding and as the one seeking Him. Are you the one? Am I the one?
Psalm 53:1-2 (KJV)
1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
