GOD – the explorer of hearts..!!



Let’s read Psalm 139: 1, 2(CEV) & Proverbs 3: 5-7(CEV)

“You have looked deep into my heart, Lord, and you know all about me. You know when I am resting or when I am working, and from heaven you discover my thoughts”

“With all your heart you must trust the Lord and not your own judgment. Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow. Don’t ever think that you are wise enough, but respect the Lord and stay away from evil”

Over the years, NASA has launched a series of “Explorer” spacecrafts into the space, mainly for exploration, observation & to gather information etc.  These spacecrafts or artificial satellites are sent as deep (out) into the space as possible to “know the unknown”.

While man endeavours to gaze higher and higher from his point of origin – the earth, God has since creation been looking deeper and deeper into the point of origin of all corruption and wickedness – the heart. While man needs spacecrafts or artificial satellites to explore the “unknown”, God does not need any “equipment” for His exploration; He looks deep into your heart straight down from Heaven…!

God knows EVERYTHING about you. He knows your every move. He knows that you are reading this message right now. He knows all of your thoughts and all of your subsequent attitudes & actions. 

God’s certification of your character is based on the status of your heart and not that of your mind. You can use all the knowledge & understanding you have to be “righteous” and “acceptable” in the sight of men, but to be certified as “righteous” in the sight of God you need to be pure and faith-filled in your heart. 

“Well then, what can we say about our ancestor Abraham? If he became acceptable to God because of what he did, then he would have something to brag about. But he would never be able to brag about it to God. The Scriptures say, “God accepted Abraham because Abraham had faith in him.” (Romans 4: 1-3CEV)

Hence, don’t ever fool yourself by thinking that you are wise enough to lead a “balanced” & “acceptable” life by using your own understanding. “Always let Him lead you...”

Never forget that God’s spacecraft (His sight) is "exploring" your heart ALWAYS..!!
