Omniscience Of God #1 Series

[in other words God’s powerful word, if we will pay attention to it, will give us an insight and an understanding of what thoughts will please God. We will recognize and distinguish and demonstrate what kind of thoughts are o.k. with God.]

verse 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.”

3. Do you understand that God keeps a record of your thoughts in the book of life, the same as God keeps a record of your deeds?

4. Don’t just be fearful of having bad thoughts, because God also keeps a record of the good and wonderful thoughts that we have.

5. Turn to Philippians 4:8&9. Every word in the New Testament is important to study and use in the controlling of our thoughts, but this passage gives us a quick summary of some very important things to think about. Let’s read Philippians 4:8&9, “8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. 9 The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.”

(1) Mayra says that she reads and re-reads this passage real often and she calls it one of her most favorite passages.

(2) We should all make an effort to memorize and live by this passage.

IV. FOURTH, PSALM 139:3 TEACHES THAT GOD’S OMNISCIENCE ALLOWS HIM TO KNOW WHERE WE GO EACH DAY AND EACH NIGHT.

1. Let’s read Psalm 139:3, “You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways.”

(1) If I were to ask you to take a few pieces of paper and make a list of every place that you went to and every dream that you had in your sleep over the past year or we’ll say over the past month could you do it?

(2) Do you understand that the Psalmist is teaching that God has that list, not over just the past month, but over each and every day and night that we have been alive?

(3) If you are 10 years of age or 20 or 40 or 70 or 80 or 90 years of age “God is acquainted with all your ways”.

2. Are you ashamed of some of the paths that you have traveled?

3. Would you like to erase some of the things that you have done? Would you like to blot out the sins that you have committed on some of the paths that you have traveled?

4. Turn to Acts 2:38. The forgiveness or remission or dismissal of sins that is promised in this passage is for those who have never become a Christian. A non Christian is commanded to believe in God and Christ and the bible. They are commanded to repent (which is to turn from things that are sinful and turn in obedience to God). They are commanded to confess that they believe Jesus is the Son of God. They are commanded to obey the command of baptism. Let’s read Acts 2:38, “Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”
