He knows everything

May 2 And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul. Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you tomorrow, as though ye would enquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him. And when Paul’s sister’s son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle and told Paul. Acts 23:14-16 It was neither coincidence nor accident that Paul’s nephew was in earshot of the plan to kill Paul, it was part of God’s program for Paul. At some point in their walk, most believers ask, 'How can I know what God wants me to do?’ And, like Elijah in 1 Kings 19, they sit in a cave, wondering. Like Elijah, they feel the earth shaking — but the Lord is not in the earthquake. They see the fire glowing — but the Lord is not in the fire. They watch the wind blowing — but the Lord is not in the wind. Many people are still looking for an earth-shaking confirmation, a fiery illumination, or a wind to blow them in Divine direction. But it’s much simpler than that. As Elijah discovered, God’s is a still, small voice (1 Kings 19:12). The Lord whispers in your heart, writes desires upon your heart, and then gives confirmation to your heart through situations and people around you. Accuse me of being simplistic, but I find it so wonderful to say, ‘Father, this is the desire of my heart. I’m going to pursue this course, knowing You will close and open doors — as You lead me in a supernaturally natural way.’ For whatever question you face presently, just make sure your heart is open to the Lord — and He’ll have a nephew in the right place at the right time who will overhear a conversation, go to the Roman captain, and set events in motion which the world will call luck, but in which you’ll see the hand of God. DUX'S THOUGHTS/poem God is omniscient, He knows all the stars by name  Nothing escapes His attention.  God's greatness is incomparable to anything,  But He loves us, we who are specks in this vast creation and He is aware of our situation.  Our role, is simply to trust and obey  To take a step of faith each waking moment  Not to waver when storms hit the ground  Knowing that God sits on the throne.  These little things that bother us  These monstrous concerns that rob our peace of mind  Will be kissed away if we focus on Jesus  Did He not tell us, love casts out all fears? Therefore, let us navigate this life for His glory, We will read His word, that on Jesus road we stay, We will keep our ears open to that small voice, That His will shall be our choice.
