If You Seek Me
“And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.”
Jeremiah 29:13 NASB
On Sunday, June 22, 2025,
as I sat on our light-brown, cozy couch, feet propped up on the square, brown
fake-leather footrest in the middle of our living room, watching the 5th
season of The Chosen, episode 3...
Jesus spoke a word to me. Actually, it was through Jonathan Roumie, who wonderfully portrays Yeshua in the powerful series The Chosen, Season 5, episode 3.
The Lord likes to do that. Speaks to us through human vessels, which at times we take for granted.
In this episode, Yeshua had just delivered a stunning, in-your-face word to the Pharisees and Sadducees at the gate of the Second Temple, leaving them fuming under their heavy robes. He then responded to one of his disciples who was chasing after Him as He left. The disciple was concerned that He had just made them really mad, and they were going to come after Him.
In my words, not a direct quote, He responded, half mockingly, “Maybe if they seek Me, they will find Me.”
Have you ever sought the Lord, for real, wanting an answer to a concern, a problem, a directive in your life, and sincerely wanting an answer?
Yes, you have. As I have too.
At the time of this writing, I am 70 years old, although I no longer say, “70 and 7 months,” as little kids do. Even though that is true, once again, the Lord Who leads and guides us by His Holy Spirit, Ruach HaKodesh in Hebrew, has given me a choice. Again.
I had thought I had “retired” seven years ago and could now sit on my front porch in Charlotte, North Carolina, rocker and read another Joel Rosenberg thriller, or Abraham Lincoln biography.
I heard Him call my name. Again.
“If you seek Me, I will lead you on to greater things.” (*See more about this part, as included below.)
So, what was I going to do? Dismiss it as yet another time the still, small voice wasn’t needing to pay attention to? Should I respond with the common “No” that the Bible teacher, Bob Mumford, said decades ago is the most common reaction we give when the Lord presents a new adventure?
For our best good, we need to hear, obey, and follow no matter where He leads.
This is our daily choice, if we truly want to be followers of Jesus, Yeshua, the Messiah. Our Lord. Our God. The One Who has always promised to do just that, to lead us in the way we are to go.
“Thus says Adonai, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Isra’el: 'I am Adonai, your God, who teaches you for your own good, who guides you on the path you should take.” Isaiah 48:17, CJB (Complete Jewish Bible)
Ahava and Shalom,
Steve Martin
P.S. *I did in fact receive this confirming word from a prophetically gifted woman, out of the blue, whom I trust, (Nancy Shupp) who wrote this in an email to me on June 14, 2025. It came in my InBox, days after I had seriously started seeking the Lord about a matter He set before me.
"As I was praying for you, I heard the following: Thank you for responding to the call to come walk with me. You didn’t despise that it is a ministry that would never bring fame or riches. You only wanted to please me. I treasure our walks together and being able to bless others through you.
You haven’t sought glory or recognition, but Heaven knows your name. Our walk is changing, but don’t be afraid. The road ahead is even more glorious than the one behind us. I love you. I bless you, mighty man of God, and speak that everywhere your feet touch, the enemy flees, and light and love are released.”
Thank you, Nancy!
And if you have known me for a little while, you may have heard of or seen my video recordings, “Walk With Me,” that I have been creating for many years. It is something close to my heart that the Lord said in this prophetic word.
P.S.S. I will pray for you if you let me know what is on your heart. Seriously. I normally pray in tongues, for the Holy Spirit knows exactly what you need, when you need it, and how you need the answer, as you too seek Him. Please let me know.

Come and see the three miracles that changed the landscape of Season 2 and created a new phrase we’ve embraced.
