Isa 55:6 | MHM | STEP | Evangelical Invitations. This passage explains the covenant of grace that God makes with us through Jesus Christ. It shows both what God asks from us and what He promises to give. The message is not just for Jews or Gentiles, or for people in one time or place, but for everyone who seeks true happiness (Isaiah 55:1 ). God’s invitation is open to all people, everywhere. v. 6 : God calls people to pray and seek Him. Seek the Lord while he may be found, call upon him while he is near . We should look for God, ask Him what He wants us to do, and desire to be close to Him. Now is the time, because God is ready to listen and show mercy. But there will come a day when the chance is gone, so we must act while we have the opportunity (Luke 16:26; Luke 13:25–26 ). This verse emphasizes the urgency of seeking God, as the time to respond to His call is limited (2 Corinthians 6:2 ). God’s nearness is an opportunity for repentance and salvation, and we should not delay.
