GOD’S EYES

2 Chronicles 16:9a (NKJV) “For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.”

God has eyes?  Well, according to this verse, He does.  What does He do with them?   He looks.  What does He look for?  Is He looking for me to make a mistake?  No, He looks for those who love Him, and whose heart is towards Him.  He looks for those He can pour out His blessings on.

Our Heavenly Father is a good God Who loves us and wants to bless us.  However, He can only do this when our hearts are right.  If our hearts are full of pride, fear, and hurt, it is hard for God to pour out His blessings.  Someone who is keeping his heart right before Him, or as this verse says, “…whose heart is loyal to Him,” He can bless abundantly. 

That is the kind of heart I want and I endeavor to have.  How about you?  Make the decision today to have a pure heart, because Jesus said in Matthew 5:8: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”

Do you want God to see you, and do you want to see God?  Then keep a right heart.  When you mess up, ‘fess up!  Do not let it sit there for days, and weeks, and months.  Make a decision to keep your life pure before your Father who loves you and is looking out for you.  Never let pride, or hurts, hold you back.  Look deep within today.  Talk to God, and let Him know when it hurts or when it is difficult.  He knows, yet Jesus said to ask Him and talk to Him.  So no matter what is going on today, or what someone has done to you today, LET IT GO AND LET GOD!


Confession: Today I look within.  I look at my heart, and I am going to be truthful.  I am not going to cover it up and say, “Well, that is just me.”  No, I want a heart that God, my Father, can bless.  So today, I start a new a day, in a new way!
