0) Leave any semblance of rationality behind
1) Earnestly search for some being that has no evidence for it's existence and there are conflicting claims as to the exact nature of this being
2) Don't find anything - then you must have had the wrong idea of this hypothetical being
3) Change idea (but no clue as to what) and search again
4) Repeat ad nauseum
5) Die of old age
If this were a scientific hypothesis that you were doing this method for, you'd quite sensibly never be taken seriously by anyone. However, since this is a claim made in a book written in the bronze age, it's perfectly reasonable?
Don't forget 7- burn in hell for all eternity to appease the petty ego of a God that claims to love you as he roasts you for said eternity, all because he played head games with you instead of going for option one- clearly revealing himself to you.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
