God is everywhere!
(Don Fortner)
“The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” Proverbs 15:3
God is everywhere by His power–upholding, maintaining, sustaining all things, and performing with His own hands the works of His eternal purpose in all places.
God is everywhere by his providence–taking care of and governing all His creatures, executing in all places at the same time His everlasting decrees.
God is everywhere by His omniscience–beholding all things, all places, all events, all people, even the secrets of the hearts of all men at one time.
“His eyes are on the ways of men; He sees their every step. There is no dark place, no deep shadow, where evildoers can hide.” Job 34:21-22
“For a man’s ways are in full view of the LORD, and He examines all his paths.” Proverbs 5:21
“My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from Me, nor is their sin concealed from My eyes.” Jeremiah 16:17
“Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him? Do not I fill Heaven and earth?” Jeremiah 23:24
“Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” Hebrews 4:13
“O LORD, You have searched me and You know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O LORD. You hem me in–behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain!” Psalm 139:1-6
