The Eyes of the Lord

 Proverb 15:3
The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

The omnipresence of God is one of His deity's attributes. He is everywhere, present in all situations, and sees not only what happens in the visual world, but sees what is in the heart of man. He sees the evil that is happening in the world today. The perversion of humanity, calling good evil and evil good. He saw evil in the days of Sodom and Gommorah and did not tolerate the sinfulness of that day. He sees the wokeness of our day and His eyes are heavy with sorrow. His heart breaks to see that many have become reprobates, turning away from the truth of His word to their own desires, fulfilling the lust of the flesh. Yes, God sees the heart, and His holiness will judge rightly. He is a God of grace and forgiveness. He will not turn away a heart that desires to turn toward that which is good and righteous. He beholds those who are seekers after righteousness and seek that which is good. There is nothing that is hidden from Him. “ If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea.” (Psalm 139:8-9) He not only sees us, but he is there with us. The eyes of the Lord are never deceived or tricked, they are perfect and can see things that man cannot see. We can be assured that His eyes are on us.  The songwriter penned this so accurately.  “For His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.” For the eyes of the Lord are in every place.

God Does Not Sleep

Psalm 121:3,4 … He that keeps you will not slumber…Behold, He that keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

He is a God of 24-7. No matter the time of day or night He watches over His children. His voice is sometimes absent and there may be times that we feel He is no where around. Like Job, we look around and it seems that God is gone and we are left alone. But, we serve a God who is omnipresent, who does not forget where we are and what needs we have. God does not need to be awaken, He is always watching over us and keeping us. The Holy Spirit is given to us to help us walk and led us in path of righteousness. We need not fear that He will walk away or fall asleep in time of need. We serve a God who loves us and desires to keep us safe in the palm of His hand.

God Does Care

Mat. 10:29-31 “Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not, therefore; ye are of more value than many sparrows.”-

The value of sparrows are next to nothing, but God cares even when the sparrow falls to the ground. He watches over that which we place very little value. The little things are important to God. There are billions of people that live on this earth, the world population makes us feel that we are very insignificant. “Does God really take interest in each one?” God’s word assures us that He does care, and understands when we are going through times of difficulty. He knows us better than anyone else, and desires to give us what we need. We don’t have to fear tomorrow, for He knows what we need and will provide us the help and grace when we need it.
