The Omniscient God!


Job 33:4 from last weeks Message inspired me!  What an awesome thought: “The Spirit of God hath made me, and the Breath of the Almighty hath given me life.” We don’t often think about the breath we breathe, yet without it we do not have life.  If we have difficultly breathing, then we are mindful of how important it is to breath. The Lord has brought to mind – it is His breath in us and we are motivated by His Spirit. Of course we are given a ‘free will’ so we can choose to obey God or to appease our fleshly ways.  Let us meditate up this thought and realize afresh that the Spirit of God gave ‘me’ this breath in the beginning of my life for His purpose! Our God, Jehovah Compasses us throughout our life.  This means He ‘surrounds’ us, He encircles every moment of our life, even when we are lying down/sleeping. Another meaning of Compass is cling. Jesus clings to us! We are what Jesus presents to the Father.  We are Jesus’ glory!  Eph. 1:12 “...We should be to the Praise of His Glory ...”    2 Thess. 1:12 “That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in Him ...”  Another powerful Word from God is: Ps.100:3 “Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.”  The Message today is from Psalm 139, and we will explore the “Omniscient God!” meaning a God of  “Infinite awareness & Understanding, possessed of complete Knowledge.” He is Omnipotent, unlimited power!  And He is Omnipresent, His presence in all places at all times! Here’s something to think about: Vs 1 “O Lord Thou has searched me, and known me.”  Sometimes we feel like ‘no one understands me – no one sees me – no one cares for me. We feel isolated. If we are a Reader of God’s Word, this feeling should be overtaken immediately with this Passage of Scripture for it details just how much God knows about us.  We must rise to occasion and fill our heart and soul with His Word, for it is our help in the time of trouble, it is our strength in weakness, and it is our comfort in sorrow.  Christianity has become anemic and somewhat overpowered by the forces of darkness and negativity until we don’t even recognize we have lost our positive awareness that is our Faith.  God tells us in this Chapter, even in darkness, there is Light about me. Loving you, Pastor
