I want Firefox to automatically start my searches from the Search Box insead of from the Address Bar. How do I go about being able to do this?

Prior to upgrading Firefox 72.0.2 (64-Bit) my Google browser would automatically open my search from the Search Box. Now, with the Firefox browser, all my searches begin from the Address Bar--no matter what Browser I select. I am using Windows 7.
