Psalm 27:8 (AMP)
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].

The bible encourages us to seek God, not just His hands but His face always. Unfortunately, we seem to only want what God can give us, so we seek His hands and blessing instead of the dept of His overall presence and glory.
Seeking God’s face is to pursue His presence to experience His favour and glory through fellowship.
God addresses us by the first-person article to “Seek my face”, and David’s response to the invitation was, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek.
How many of us spend time and energy seeking everything but God’s face and presence? We can’t seek God for the mundane and worthless things and expect to experience His glory.
Why does the Lord tell us to seek His face? Is it because He’s hiding? No, God is not hiding, according to Proverbs 8:17, if you seek Him, you’ll find Him and the reason He wants us to seek him is that he wants to be found.
Seek means to search out something by any method. There is a connotation of something missing that must be found by seeking, as in lost and found, to seek to find.
To seek something is to crave after it. One must be tenacious in seeking God’s face through worship and prayer, a seeking that should be done always and not just for a time or season.
We go to God in prayer about many things, we turn to Him for provision, healing, comfort, wisdom, and many more, there’s nothing wrong with that because we have needs and God desires to provide for us as promised in Philippians 4:19.
When we turn to the Lord, we are effectively seeking His face knowing that He rules and reigns over everything and that we are willing to surrender our will to His to allow His glorious light to shine through us.
When we seek the Lord, He turns His face towards us, restoring us completely from the brokenness of life and causes His face to shine on us according to Psalm 80:19 the radiance that comes from seeking His presence.
When we seek God’s face, we crave His power, presence, favour and blessing through prayer that transforms us continually. By God’s standard, His presence is His word that acts as a mirror according to 2 Corinthians 3:18 through which we see God in us.
Seeking God’s face implies being face-to-face with God, which is a place of deep intimacy, in a public sanctuary or your sanctuary (a private place to commune with the Lord) and Psalm 105:4 instructs us to continually seek God’s face or presence for the Lord’s strength needed to face each day as they come.
The only way we get to know people is to spend time with them, the same applies to God, who wants us to seek his face because he wants us to know Him through fellowship. We can learn a lot about God without knowing him intimately but seeking Him will give us revelational and experiential knowledge of Him in Psalm 103:7 and He will make His ways known to us as He did with Moses when we spend time seeking His ways. Seeking God’s face reveals His will.
Shalom
