GOD WATCHES OVER US

“For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?” 1 Peter 3:12-13 NIV
       While God is a spirit being and doesn’t literally have eyes and ears, still it is said frequently in scripture that He watches over the righteous and hears their cries for help.  God sees everything that transpires in this life, but His eyes are particularly on those who have become His children. He holds a certain guardianship and care over them. It should be noted that if we are washed clean of all our passed sins God sees us as righteous. 
      Those who think evil thoughts, tend to put them into motion at some point.  Their evil actions shall bring the wrath of God upon them sooner or later, for His face is against them.  He has distain toward them and will not allow them to prosper forever.  He allows what He has chosen to allow in order for those outside the fold to have every opportunity to repent.  Therefore they will have no excuses on the final day.
       We, as believers and followers of Christ, shouldn’t concern ourselves with those that mean to do us harm. God has everything under complete control. Nothing can touch us unless the Lord ordains it.  If He ordains it then He has control over it, as He has control over all things that take place.  If He has control over it then it is His will for our life at that time.  God causes or allows things in our lives as faith lessons to build us up spiritually.  When we accept something as God’s will for our life at that time, it becomes an opportunity to bolster our trust thru increased reliance on Him.  It’s the Lord’s general will for us all to thrive as His children and be blessed so that we can dispense His blessings to those around us each day.  Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing!
