We are not afraid to die, so we can live freely and confidently, knowing that our lives are in His hands. Our days are ordained we can trust that God will keep us alive until He is ready for us to go home. There are no surprises, and nothing the enemy can throw at us “flies under the radar” of God’s all-knowing awareness. How well would you sleep if you were not assured that tomorrow is safe in God’s hands? The omniscience of God allows us to lay our heads down on our pillows at night and rest in the fact that nothing can happen that He is not fully cognizant of before it comes to pass. Psalm 139:16 “Your eyes have seen my unformed substance and in Your book were all written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them.”Īcts 3:18 “But the things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled.” But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” Matthew 10:29-30 “Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. A committed believer can stand in the assurance that today’s needs will be met by an omniscient provider. He knows exactly what we need, both in the realm of physical things like food, shelter, and clothing, but also in the realm of our spiritual, emotional, and mental needs as well. Yet, no matter how well we might prepare, we are not able to see the future.īecause God has perfect knowledge of what tomorrow will bring, He is able to provide for us today. God expects us to work hard and use the abilities and opportunities He provides as good stewards of His blessings. In our culture, a lot of time and money is spent to on making sure our needs are taken care of, and rightfully so. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith! Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.”īecause God is omniscient, He has perfect knowledge of what we need for any given day. Are you not worth much more than they? And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life? And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Matthew 6:25-32 “For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink nor for your body, as to what you will put on. No talebearer can inform on us, no enemy can make an accusation stick no forgotten skeleton can come tumbling out of some hidden closet to abash us and expose our past no unsuspected weakness in our characters can come to light to turn God away from us, since He knew us utterly before we knew Him and called us to Himself in the full knowledge of everything that was against us.” Tozer writes “To us who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope that is set before us in the gospel, how unutterably sweet is the knowledge that our Heavenly Father knows us completely. When God accepts us, it is with a “No Return” policy! He knows all, and Christ’s blood covers all. ![]() No, God enters into a covenant relationship with us, and has truly, completely forgiven us of all our sins, past, present and future. We do not enter into a contract with God, with stipulations for rescinding the contract if He discovers some undisclosed fault or defect in us. He knows what we’re doing right now, and what we will do in the future. Even before there is a word on my tongue, behold, O Lord, You know it all.”īecause God knows all things, we can rest in the security of His mercy and grace, fully assured that He accepted us with “full disclosure.” He knows everything we’ve ever done. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. ![]() You know when I sit down and when I rise up You understand my thought from afar. Psalm 139:1-4 “O Lord, You have searched me and known me. Psalm 33:13-15 “The Lord looks from heaven He sees all the sons of men from His dwelling place He looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth, He who fashions the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works.” Hebrews 4:13 “And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.”
