Psalm 139:1(KJV)
O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.
The David in this Psalm acknowledged that God knew everything about him; his down sitting and uprising, all his ways and even his thoughts including the word on his tongue. God is the only One whose knowledge covers the past, present and future happenings. He is the only One whose knowledge covers both actual and possible experience or circumstance. He knows everything about things that are, and He has the knowledge of all things that could have been. Our all knowing God has intimate understanding of us. He knows everything, down to the very thought of your heart. How comforting to know God loves us perfectly, is fully aware of what we will face today, and He knows how best to help us in every circumstance of life.
Many people of today still live under the illusion that they can do evil without being found! In fact, some carry on as if there is no God, while some, though have the knowledge of God, deny the power thereof. There are people who commit heinous crimes like murder, arson, terrorism, rape, kidnapping, ritual killing and then go underground, with the erroneous assumption that they cannot be caught. They seem to be ignorant of the fact that sin against humanity is also sin against God and they can never hide from the Omnipresent God. Know that all other sins, no matter how small, will also not go unnoticed by God. Be it idol worship, immorality, covetousness, lying, theft, disobedience, malice, backbiting, drunkenness, treachery and many others, whenever and wherever committed, they are all open to the eternal God. Proverbs 15:3 says “The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” God knows us thoroughly as we go about our everyday chores, at different locations and situations, no matter our condition. God is interested in every detail of our lives and knows what we need even before we ask Him (Matthew 6:8). He will not abandon us or forget us, nor is He so busy to neglects us. Even when we are in trouble or in difficult circumstances we are not hidden from His Presence.
Beloved, you don’t know how God will use the circumstances of your life, but you can rest in the knowledge that God knows everything about you and is directing your footsteps. Though His Sovereign Hand may seem hidden, He’s never absent. Avoid following the crowd to commit evil! Stand out as a light in the world! Just as a fish cannot survive on dry land, you cannot excel on this planet until you discover who you are in Christ. Don’t envy anyone, nor compromise, rather seek God with all your heart. Worship the most High God for His exclusive attribute of being the all knowing and for being able to bring His counsel to pass in your life, irrespective of all that the enemies may plan. Come to the winning side today and surrender your life to our great God. Remember, God is everywhere, and so He sees everything, you can’t run away from His Presence.
O Lord, thank You for knowing me inside and out. Thank You for Your love, care and attention in Jesus’ Name.
