Psalm 139, HE knows you more than you know yourself!

Psa 139:1-4, … O LORD, YOU HAVE SEARCHED ME AND KNOWN ME. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.

GOD knows everything about you for HE has searched you heart and all your thoughts are before HIM! YOU CAN’T HIDE ANYTHING FROM HIM FOR HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT YOU AND ME!

Psa 139:6, SUCH KNOWLEDGE IS TOO WONDERFUL FOR ME; IT IS HIGH, I CANNOT ATTAIN IT.

Such knowledge is far beyond human abilities; for HE knows us, and everyone else in the world, more than we know about ourselves. There are trillions of stars in the universe, Yet HE knows each one by name!

Psa 147:4, HE COUNTS THE NUMBER OF THE STARS; HE CALLS THEM ALL BY NAME. 

Psa 139:7-10, WHERE CAN I GO FROM YOUR SPIRIT? OR WHERE CAN I FLEE FROM YOUR PRESENCE? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, EVEN THERE YOUR HAND SHALL LEAD ME, AND YOUR RIGHT HAND SHALL HOLD ME.

GOD is like the air that surrounds us constantly giving breath to our bodies. Yet, we don’t perceive the air before us nor even think of it, but we know it’s there! HE is like that, always before yet we don’t perceive HIM!

Job 9:11, If He goes by me, I do not see Him; If He moves past, I DO NOT PERCEIVE HIM; 

Psa 139:17-18, HOW PRECIOUS ALSO ARE YOUR THOUGHTS TO ME, O God! HOW GREAT IS THE SUM OF THEM! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You.

HE loves us so much that HE can’t take HIS eyes off of us! HE is constantly thinking of us, and even though we don’t perceive HIM know that HE is there!

Zep 3:17, THE LORD YOUR GOD IN YOUR MIDST, THE MIGHTY ONE, WILL SAVE; HE WILL REJOICE OVER YOU WITH GLADNESS, HE WILL QUIET YOU WITH HIS LOVE, HE WILL REJOICE OVER YOU WITH SINGING.” 

Scripture says, what is man that YOU are mindful of him? It’s not who we are but who HE is! HE IS THE GOD OF LOVE AND COMPASSION NOT WILLING THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH, BUT THAT ALL SHOULD COME TO FAITH IN HIM! BEAUTIFUL PSALM! THANK YOU LORD!

Psalm 40, HIS Thoughts for us!

Psa 40:1-3, … I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE LORD; AND HE INCLINED TO ME, AND HEARD MY CRY. HE ALSO BROUGHT ME UP OUT OF A HORRIBLE PIT, OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY, AND SET MY FEET UPON A ROCK, AND ESTABLISHED MY STEPS. He has put a new song in my mouth—Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD.

In times of trouble it’s hard, at least for me, to patiently wait on the LORD! I remember that we were bleeding out money and nothing coming in, BUT THEN HE OPENED A DOOR FOR ME! ALL I COULD DO IS PRAISE HIM! THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO TODAY (OCT 1, 2018)! REMEMBER THE LORD KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING AND IS NEVER LATE!

Psa 40:4, BLESSED IS THAT MAN WHO MAKES THE LORD HIS TRUST…

Psa 40:5, MANY, O LORD MY GOD, ARE YOUR WONDERFUL WORKS WHICH YOU HAVE DONE; AND YOUR THOUGHTS TOWARD US CANNOT BE RECOUNTED TO YOU IN ORDER; IF I WOULD DECLARE AND SPEAK OF THEM, THEY ARE MORE THAN CAN BE NUMBERED. 

The LORD is always working and is never sleeping on the job! HIS thoughts for you can’t be counted for HE is always thinking of you!

Jer 29:11, FOR I KNOW THE THOUGHTS THAT I THINK TOWARD YOU, says the LORD, THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND NOT OF EVIL, TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE. 

We were at the beach recently, and while looking at the sand it brought this beautiful scripture to memory!

Psa 139:17-18, How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! HOW GREAT IS THE SUM OF THEM! IF I SHOULD COUNT THEM, THEY WOULD BE MORE IN NUMBER THAN THE SAND; When I awake, I am still with You.

The Creator of the universal, the Creator of everything seen and unseen knows your name! HE listens to your voice and looks upon you at every moment! HE is always thinking about you and has a plan for you! WOW!

Psa 40:17, But I am poor and needy; YET THE LORD THINKS UPON ME. You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God. 

IT’S NOT WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER HIM, BUT WHAT HE HAS TO OFFER US! HE IS LOVE, AND A FATHER TO THOSE THAT PLACE THEIR TRUST IN HIM! BLESSED ARE YOU IF YOU TRUST IN HIM!
