"Lord, you have searched me, and you know me." Psalm 139:1

In Psalm 139 King David is praising God for His all seeing care and guidance over all creatures on earth; for omnisciently directing the universe and the affairs of humankind with wise benevolence; for the manifestation of divine care. With this in mind, let's briefly see what Scripture tells us of Almighty God who is our heavenly Father.

Consider 139:2 -- God's knowledge:
"...For the Lord is the God of knowledge; And by Him actions are weighed." 1 Samuel 2:3

"Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The everlasting God, the Lord,
The Creator of the ends of the earth,
Neither faints nor is weary.
There is no searching of His understanding." Isaiah 40:28

"He reveals deep and secret things;
He knows what is in the darkness,
And light dwells with Him." Daniel 2:22

"And again, 'The Lords knows the thought of the wise, that they are futile.'"  1 Corinthians 3:30

Consider Vs. 10 -- God's hand:
"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand." Psalm 37:23-24

"What You give them they gather in;
You open Your hand, they are filled with good." Psalm104:28

Then we see in Isaiah 49:16,
"Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands."

Jesus speaking of those who are His:
"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand." John 10:28

Consider Vs. 14 -- God's works: (They are without number! In connection with Psalm 139:14 I will mention a few that are cross referenced in the Thompson Chain Bible.) "When I view and consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and stars, which You have ordained and established, What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of [earthborn] man that You care for him?" Psalm 8:3-4 The Amplified Bible

"The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork." Psalm 19:1

"The works of the Lord are great, studied by all who have pleasure in them.
His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteous endures forever.
He has made His wonderful works to be remembered..." Psalm 111:2-4

"He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end." Ecclesiastes 3:11

"And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb saying:
'Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty!
Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints!' Revelation 15:3

Consider Vs. 17 -- God's thoughts:
"Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; And Your thoughts which are toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered." Psalm 40:5

"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:9

And, this message to those in captivity (and to us from our loving God):
"For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome." Jeremiah 29:11 The Amplified Bible He goes on to tell them and us to call on Him and pray and He will listen, and He will be found by all who seek Him. (Read Vs. 11-14)

"How precious also are your thoughts to me O God!..." Psalm 139:17

You are amazing and awesome, O God! Thank you for Your great love that draws such as we unto Yourself. With grateful hearts we give You all praise, honor and glory! Amen
