I have a document and want to highlight a word so I can see it highlighted
over many pages.

I do command F for find.
Only thing is, only first page shows the highlighted words, as soon as I
click in document to scroll down to see more, the function no longer works,
the find box disappears.

*Don't* click in the doc - when you do it deselects the occurrences that
have been found & selected for you. Use the Scroll Bar. The Find dialog will
still go "behind" the doc, but Cmd+F will bring it back to the foreground
with the same settings in place.

You can also use the Find Next & Find Previous buttons (double arrows at the
bottom of the scroll bar) to move from one occurrence to the next, but that
also deselects any but the currently selected instance.
