(Psalms 33:13-15 NIV) “From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind; {14} from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth-- {15} he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do…”
(Psalm 147:5 NIV) “Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.”
(1 John 3:19-20 NIV) “This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence {20} whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.”
How do we deal with an entity who knows our every thought? How do we relate to a God who knows everything? The Lord knows what we do and why we do it. He knows our every thought. Here are a few suggestions about how to deal with an omniscient God. Deal with Him honestly because you cannot fool, deceive, or con God. Open your life to God -- He already knows the truth. Fall on your face before God and beg for mercy. Worship this God. Any God who knows our every thought and action, but does not turn us into burnt toast, deserves our worship. How many dishonorable thoughts have you had this week? How many dishonest things have you done? How many lies have you told? How many people have you hurt? God knows, but you are still here. Our God is patient with us. The Lord is full of grace and forgiveness. A God like this deserves our worship. -- Friar Tuck’s Word of the Day
