“Oh LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me”. - Ps.139:1

Psalm 139 was written by a man who had right thoughts about God that made a difference. He lived with confidence, security and fulfilment. He submitted to God. This Psalm focuses on four great attributes of God: 1) His knowledge of all things, 2) His presence everywhere, 3) His power in the formation of man, and 4) His holiness, which destroys evil man and searches the believers heart.

#1 God knows everything (vv.1-6). Theologians call this God’s Omniscience. God knows your personal. He knows you intimately, including your action and your thoughts. He knows you sovereignly.

#2 God is everywhere (vv.7-12). You cannot flee from Him. This is a beautiful description of His Omnipresence. You cannot hide even in darkness. God is in all places at all times (v.11).

#3 God can do anything (vv.13-18). He is Omnipotent. David says the greatest marvel of all is human birth or power in the formation of man. God can make life. He gives each baby the genetic structure He want him or her to have. If you leave God out of your life, you will never fulfil what you were born for.

#4 God can guide your life (vv.19-24). You dare not fight against Him. His Holiness, which destroys evil man and searches the heart of a believer. David said he was going to serve God—a decision that led to dedication (vv.23-24). When we put the whole psalm together, we discover a man who knows God. You, too, can know God through Jesus Christ (John.14:9; 17:3).

God knows everything about you. Be open and honest with Him, and He can lead and bless you. Strive to do His will. God made you and wants to fulfil in your life that for which He made you.
