CAC LIVING WATER DAILY DEVOTIONAL April 3, 2022 (GOD WHO KNOWS ME INSIDE OUTSIDE)
TOPIC: GOD WHO KNOWS ME INSIDE OUTSIDE
Read Psalms 139:1-24
MEMORISE: I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvellous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well (Psalms 139:14).
EXPOSITION
The fact that God knows man intrinsically and extrinsically amazed the Psalmist so much that he said that such knowledge was too wonderful for him; too high to attain. The truth is that, God knows all about man. What is inside man and those situations around him, are not hidden from God. He knows man inside outside, i.e. in his entirety. God needs no one to introduce man to Him (Jn. 2:25). After all, He is Omniscient.
God knows you well, more than you know yourself. He predetermined your life.
All that you are going to be are already determined in His master–plan. Isn’t it better to go to God for the blueprint of your life, rather than dragging your life with Him Who owns the key that opens and closes your existence? A Yoruba adage translates, “A corpse does not hide its parts from the one who is to bath it.” Isn’t it better to open up to the One Who knows you entirely? Those who have adjusted their belief systems against God and His supreme existence are doing themselves the worst of harms, because the fact that they claim there is no God neither stops His existence nor reduces His power in any way.
That God is all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful, and present everywhere should trigger us to praise, honour and revere Him the more, as well as fear, trust and obey Him. It should also move us to call upon Him for help and intervention in all situations. We should cooperate with Him. You cannot hide from Him.
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord, I thank You for making me, fearfully and wonderfully, in Your Own image and likeness, and for Your good thoughts towards me.
2. Lord, help me to be conscious of the fact that You know me entirely, and to translate this to close relationship with You.
3. Pray for CAC Babajide Region, our father in the Lord, the Superintendent, and its officers at the various levels, as led by the Spirit of God.
