O Lord, You have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my thoughts even when I'm far away. You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You go before me me and follow me. You place Your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand. Psalm 139: 1-6 (NLT)Is the fact that God knows everything about you frightening or encouraging..... comforting or unsettling? There is nothing we can hide from God.... no where we can go to escape Him. He is an omnipotent God! OMNIPRESENT!!!!
He knew us before we were born (v 13).... He knows our hearts (v 1).... He knows our words before we even say them (v 4).... He knows our every move (v 3).... He knows all the days of our life (v 16).... We reverence God for this knowledge that is too great for us to understand!
Oh, how great are God's riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand His decisions and His ways!
Romans 11:33 (NLT)
"My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts, says the Lord. And My ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts higher than your thoughts."
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NLT)
When we seek God for our lives.... our source of being.... these facts should offer us peace. Knowing that God cares so much for us.... His intimate knowledge of us.... His workmanship in us.... should bring us comfort. He is concerned about every detail of our lives. He knows us better than we know ourselves. Therefore, He is able to provide for our every need.... protect us.... and guide us along His everlasting path.
