Eyes of God and eyes of believers

 


"We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” 2 Chronicles 20:12c

"God sees all that you do" is a dialogue readers might recollect from their childhood memories. It is true based on Proverbs 15:3 and Hebrews 4:13. God sees all that everyone does. God created everything. God created everyone. Almighty God cares about the overall conduct of His children as well as the conduct of others toward His children. The care of God measures way beyond human parents. Psalms 32:8 teaches that God sets His eyes upon the one He counsels. That means God counsels each believer in the way each one can understand it. The reason is the righteousness of God in giving opportunities to obey Him. Zechariah 2:8 reveals that God values His believers as the apple of His eye. Psalm 121:7,8 are verses that shows God watches over His children. God loves His children very much. The eyes of God describes the love of God. The eyes of God counsels rightly. Anointed believers will agree they experience their lives of faith inside the eyes of God. 

King Jehoshaphat was a person that walked in the way that God set. King Jehoshaphat was once facing war against three nations where his army was outnumbered. (2 Chronicles 20:1,2) The King decided to seek God and praise Him. 2 Chronicles 20:12c shows the heart of King Jehoshaphat and his people at the time they said, " We dont know what to do, but our eyes are on you." The chapter records the power of God in His communication toward His people and their deliverance from enemies in spite of being outnumbered. King Jehoshaphat and his people set their eyes on God. That lead to their victory. It is written in Psalm 119:18, "Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law". It is also written in Mathew 6:22, "The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light." Believers thus have the responsibility of setting their eyes on God at all times for maintaining wonders in their lives along with health and light in their bodies. Prayer of the anointed is powerful to open eyes as well as to strike with blindness. (2 Kings 6:17,18) However, believers are also warned against setting their eyes on anything worthless in the book of Psalms. (Psalm 101:3, Psalm 119:37)

Those that set their eyes on God, the God who has already set His eyes on His believers will achieve miracles. God and His children that spiritually look at each other share a special relationship. That relationship exceeds imagination even beyond the relationship that human parents and their children share in unity. Any challenge will be overcome when such a strong relationship is maintained between a believer and his / her Heavenly Father. Take heart in spiritually understanding the eyes of our Almighty God. Blooming staff encourages readers to realize the powerful watch of the Lord over His children. Setting eyes on God always with faith is one sure way to maintain victory.

Prayer: Our loving Father who watches us constantly, guide us to obey your counsel always. Create in us the heart to set our eyes on You always. Amen.

Believers like Mordecai

BELIEVERS LIKE MORDECAI Esther 3:4 "And when they spoke to him day after day and he would not listen to them, they told Haman, in order to see whether Mordecai's words would stand, for he had told them that he was a Jew." All aspects of life are described in the Holy Bible. Deeply understanding the verses is all that needs to be done. Believers know submitting oneself to God means living submissively to the word of God. That includes decision-making too. Submissiveness to God brings His wonder-working protection. Bible teaches situations and surroundings of Mordecai had no influence on his commitment to God. What God did for Mordecai is a reminder that no harm is allowed to those who obey God. The co-workers of Mordecai knew his identity. Being a Jew means living submissively to the commandments of God entire life. (Deuteronomy 6:2) That was the extraordinary way God prepared to bless his people. Mordecai was repeatedly asked to bow Haman. His situations were forcing him ...

Love of Christ

The way to securing eternity  " Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man. Seize him and lead him away under guard.” Mark 14:44 "And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting." Acts 9:5 Mark chapter 14 verse 44 displays the risk in human love. Emotion inside a human might lead to betrayal. Judas. A human that received discipleship with Jesus. A human that lacked nothing from Jesus. A human that was allotted to fulfill Scripture about Christ. (Acts 1:17) A human that kissed Jesus only as a sign to betray him. A human that feared the power of the one he was betraying. A human that could not reverse betraying innocent blood. (Matthew 27:3,4) A disciple that was replaced by another. (Acts 1:26) Humans often fail in love by default. Love of our beloved ones might change at unexpected times. The love of Jesus never changes. Reading the Holy Bible is a great way to learn the love of Christ. The book...

Salvation of Zacchaeus

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:10 Zacchaeus was a son of Abraham. (Luke 19:9) Zacchaeus was a rich man with a rewarding profession. (Luke 19:2) And, Zacchaeus was considered a sinner. (Luke 19:7) Being a chief tax collector at that time and region must have been really hard. It is understood Zacchaeus had all that he wanted in life. Yet, he wanted to see Jesus. The Bible passage records every effort that the short man took to see Jesus. That means Holy Spirit recognizes sincerity in human beings. Having to run ahead of a crowd and climbing a tree unexpectedly would exhaust anyone. The unexpected activities must have been tough for the small man. However, Zacchaeus valued his opportunity to see Jesus passing by. He did all that he could, making accurate use of time.  All efforts worked well for Zacchaeus. Jesus stopped at the tree he was on. The Holy Bible reveals here that Jesus will stop anywhere to see anyone that takes effort. Jesus knows the nee...
