The 1st day of May 2013

5/1/13

“O LORD, you have searched me and known me!”

Psa 139:1  To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. O LORD, you have searched me and known me!

Psa 139:2  You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar.

Psa 139:3  You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways.

Psa 139:4  Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, you know it altogether.

Psa 139:5  You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me.

Psa 139:6  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high; I cannot attain it.

Psa 139:7  Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence?

Psa 139:8  If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!

Psa 139:9  If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,

Psa 139:10  even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.

Psa 139:11  If I say, "Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,"

Psa 139:12  even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you.

Psa 139:13  For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

Psa 139:14  I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

Psa 139:15  My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

Psa 139:16  Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.

Psa 139:17  How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

Psa 139:18  If I would count them, they are more than the sand. I awake, and I am still with you.

Our LORD knows us better than we do, and this month we will look at what that means. The LORD God is sovereign and He is sovereign at all times and in every aspect of the entire universe, right down to the smallest dust particle. If there is one renegade molecule anywhere in the whole universe then God cannot be trusted!  Nothing is out of His control, NOTHING!
