God is Omniscient

/2 Comments/in /by

Psalm 139:1-6 declares the omniscience of God.  Do you know that God is deeply familiar with all your ways?  He knows you!  He loves you!  He has set you aside for a purpose!  Let’s walk through Psalm 139:1-6 and see just how familiar God is with all our ways!

O Lord, you have searched me and you know me.  (Psalm 139:1)

1.  God Knows You

Nothing in your life is hidden from God.  In fact, the word “searched” in verse 1 means, “to explore, to spy out, and to dig deeply into.”  God sees what no one else can see!  He sees the very depths of your being.  I can’t imagine what He sees at the depth of my being.  It leaves me in awe that He sees all the yuckiness of my heart and still continues to love me.

Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins. (James 4:17)

This verse has dealt me quite a blow this week!  Yikes!  Really, I mean don’t you think James could have softened the blow a bit.  Couldn’t he have made that verse a little easier to swallow?  He’s truly not messing around and he went straight to my heart with this verse.

God continues to convict me and show me that once I know something is wrong, I can’t go back to it.  I can’t compromise, not even a little.  God deserves my best!  I know there are areas in my life that I’m sinning towards God.  I see in my health that I was doing so good.  I had a great momentum going, but somewhere I lost that momentum.  I could give you a thousand excuses why, but none of them seem good enough.  God deserves my best with my health.  He deserves my best in every area of my life.
