HE KNOWS
Psalms 139:4 – You know what I am going to say even before I say it, LORD. (NLT)
Read: Psalms 139:1-10
A toddler had just picked up some vocabulary and could form a few words. Whenever the father was going out, the child would say “pye-pye”. The dad would respond, and she would want him to take her along. As lovely as this seems, the parents also had times when they struggled to understand the baby, especially when she tried to pass a long message, and you could see the frustration on her tender face. The toddler knows what she desires, but the parents could not help because they never understood her.
This is not so with our God, who knows all your needs, gestures, and thoughts. He sees your pains and frustrations, and before you open your mouth, He perceives what you are about to say (Isaiah 65:24). He saw you kneeling with your heart so compressed that you couldn’t utter a word, only to cry. He knows the reason behind those tears. There are about 6,500 universal languages, yet God understands them all. He hears you, regardless of your race and ethnicity. He listens to those who cannot speak, even from the deepest recess of their hearts.
David, in our Bible reading, verified that the Lord perceives his thoughts and intentions. What a great privilege to know that God sees and understands more than we can ever imagine! Therefore, when you are weak and your faith shakes, approach the throne of grace just as you are. When it seems like the world is collapsing, let your heart pant for the Lord. Continue to pray, study the word, and never lose grip of the Holy Spirit. He shall help your weakness and intercede for you (Romans 8:26–28).
