Likutei Moharan 55:11/ליקוטי מוהר"ן נ״ה:י״א

111. And through this, the tzaddikim, who do good, merit God’s countenance. Prior to the destruction of the wicked, God’s countenance is covered and hidden in order to destroy the evildoers, in the aspect of “God’s countenance is in those who do evil, to destroy [them]” (Psalms 34:17) .

2But now, as soon as we see the destruction of the wicked, God’s countenance is immediately revealed to those who do good. This is the meaning of “Seek His countenance constantly” (Psalms 105:4). By means of “constantly”—the aspect of the Land of Israel, as it is written (Deuteronomy 11:12), “God your Lord keeps His eyes on it constantly”… by means of the Land of Israel you will merit to find God’s countenance. For by means of the Land of Israel you will merit to see the destruction of the wicked, as explained above.
