Prayer
– Lord, You know everything…and see me when I’m sleeping and when I’m awake.
Thanks for loving me and accepting me…just as I am…and for guiding and
encouraging me to become more—spiritually. I am grateful that You hear and
answer my prayers.
The
LORD is watching everywhere, keeping his eye on both the evil and the good. ...
The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayers of the righteous. Proverbs 15:3, 29
Meditate.
Good versus evil.
Can you
see everything at once? God can.
God sees everything. He is watching
everywhere. Does that comfort or distress you? Do you know God and His Son,
Jesus Christ—the Savior of the world?
God
has promised to never leave us or forsake us—so I find His constant presence reassuring,
protective, and comforting. He not only sees everything, but He hears us—especially
those who are seeking Him, the righteous ones. Solomon wisely addresses God's
omniscience in Proverbs.
Don't excuse yourself by saying,
"Look, we didn't know." For God understands all hearts, and he sees
you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their
actions deserve. Proverbs
24:12
That “repay
all people as their actions deserve” could be scary. We are accountable to
God. Does that influence your decisions and actions? It does mine. I don’t want
to intentionally displease God.
Verses
of Salvation ~ This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you:
God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say
we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not
practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light, as God is in the
light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his
Son, cleanses us from all sin. If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling
ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is
faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his
word has no place in our hearts. 1
John 1:5-10God is Light.
In Him there is no darkness.
Happy
Birthday Sweet Liberty!
