Isaiah 58:2a  "Yet they seek Me day by day, And delight to know My ways.”

You look for God, and you also like what’s in the dark.  You already know how to find God, and yet you keep looking.  You should go to God directly,  and ask Him to free you from the dark.

You delight in the knowledge about God.  You increase your knowledge and still do bad deeds.   Will more knowledge set you free from your bad deeds?  No.

You continue to stay at a distance from God.  You should go to God directly for your own freedom, so that your prayers for others will be effective.
