No Place to Hide

Jeremiah 23:24 “Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?”

            Folks do things that are wrong all the time. They think they are so cunning, as if they had gotten away with something. All the while they are acting out in full view of God, whether they believe that or not. The fact is that sinful man can run from God as long as they want, but they will only die tired. 

Christians can take comfort in the fact that there are no places that He does not see us; non-Christians cannot. There is no place on this planet that is hidden from Him. Like a home builder who knows every nook and cranny of a house they built, so God knows even the most remote place in His creation. If a Christian has a misstep, there is a need to own up to it, seek forgiveness and move on. God knows all about it, so denying it or acting as if it never happened, is fruitless. Take solace in the fact that God is patient. This isn’t a single elimination reality show; God wants us to succeed, to thrive and be at peace.

            Since God is omnipresent, there is literally no place that He is not. His spirit can be found everywhere. Self-absorbed man sees nothing but themselves and what they are doing; the spiritual man can see God’s presence all around him. Take the time to marvel at the creation of God. 

 

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper 

you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
            God always has our best interests at heart. 

Seek His will for your life and not your own. 

Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
