“I have set the LORD always before me;
 Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.”  Psalm 16:8
 
Like the Psalmist, David, are we confident of this?  Do we recognize (see) His hand in what is going on in our lives each day, continuously?  Scripture indicates we can.  This would be with our spiritual eyes. Let’s see what Scripture tells us.
 
In order to see, we must draw near!
“The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart,
 And saves such as have a contrite spirit.”  Psalm 34:18
 
“The LORD is near to all who call upon Him,
 To all who call upon Him in truth.  Psalm 145:18
 
The apostle Paul in preaching the gospel in Athens speaks of their altar TO THE UNKNOWN GOD.  
(Read the whole account Acts 17:16-34)
“God did this so that men would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.”  Vs. 27 
 
God is available so it behooves us to draw near to Him!  
“It is good for me to draw near to God;
 I have put my trust in the Lord God,
 That I may declare all Your works.”  Psalm 73:28
 
“For the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the brining in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.”  Hebrews 7:19
 
“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.”  Hebrews 10:22
 
“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you...”  James 4:8
 
Proverbs 4:23-27 concerning our hearts,
“Keep your heart with all diligence,
 For out of it spring the issues of life.
 Put away from you a deceitful mouth,
 And put perverse lips far from you.
 Let your eyes look straight ahead,
 And your eyelids look right before you.
 Ponder the path of your feet,
 And let all your ways be established
 Do not turn to the right or the left; 
 Remove your foot from evil.”  
 
As Believers we must discipline our hearts keeping our thoughts, attitudes, habits and yes, our words in all righteousness.
 
Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:8,
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
 
Only in Christ and in the leading of the Holy Spirit can we see God’s hand in every happening of our lives daily.
 
Thank you Lord for the spiritual eyes to see Your mighty hand in all that takes place in our lives.  Some may be very obvious, some may take awhile to grasp and some may not be revealed until we see You Face to face.  But our hope and confidence is in You!  We love and honor you Lord!  Amen
