God Is Everywhere

Can we hide from God? The Bible contains many examples of people trying to do just that. In Psalm 139, however, David ponders this question and rightly understands that since God is everywhere, there is no place we can flee from His presence, nor should we wish to. Alistair Begg reminds us that although by nature each one of us hides from God, the Lord still lovingly seeks us, guides us with His hand, and comforts us with the remarkable truth that because of Christ, He is Immanuel, “God with us”-everywhere!
Preached: 01/15/2023
Scripture: Psalm 139:7-12

    Hello friend. I am 55 years Lord. I've known the Lord all my life but believe I only got saved when similar to you, I had a "situation" in life where I needed a miracle. The day I looked up and said "Lord I tried but I just can't do it. Help me", I experienced the meaning behind the word "heartfelt. My entire existence was changed within 48 hours along with 2 very special blessings that contribute to this day. My prayers go out to you. Stay faithful. God bless.

I have never met him but feel like he has mentored my husband and myself in our walk and our ministries. The Lord bless him and protect him. And his family.

    Alister, God bless you. Just a word, I have often said that the song Santa Claus is coming to town. Jesus Christ is coming to town. For he sees you when you are sleeping and knows when you are awake, he knows when you have been bad or good. Why NOT be holy for Christ Jesus, sake. It is amazing that you mentioned this and I have thought this same way for many many years.

    Waking up in the arms of Jesus, now let that thought wash over you! 🙌 There’s no place that God is not. Praise Him for that mysterious wonder knowing He’s in every moment today, and tomorrow, hence, why we must remember Him in all our ways. God’s speaking continually and without interruption, yet are we in the practice of constantly listening? 🤔 God is the only one who knows the answer to that question, as we have no hidden-self from Him and it is our misinterpretation of the scripture’s that leads us away from the correct path and into error or morally questionable behaviors. Satan’s biggest serpent lie is God’s trying to withhold from us, or that our wandering off to sin is hidden from God. While it’s true our sins can be unknown by others when withholding our thoughts, or areas of our lives for some reason or another we want kept secret, that’s not possible with God. There is no luxury in hidden agendas or hidden-self, every single person’s activities whether we agree or not, is known by God. As stubborn children we may attempt hiding or running away from our awareness, as Adam and Eve attempted in the garden, but God knew their location and spiritual conditions. When we have pride, fear or are in conflict with trusting we can become adamant about this knowledge. It’s a dangerous slippery slope that leads many to unwisely choose to stand before Almighty God with fingers in their ears telling God, “blah, blah, blah” - that is when the hidden-self takes charge. An attempt to ‘have it your way’ mentality outward rebellion to keep God from revealing and attending to our need for more of Himself in us. It is only when make ourselves available to listen and hear His voice, His promptings, that He can transform us more and more, so our innermost self reveals and we desire to change course of our patterns of being so we become clothed and emulating more of Him. That demonstrates a person is trusting God and finds it desirable to heal and become made whole. God desires to love, comfort, heal and transform us. AND, He’s so interested in us, that He’s continually sending us reminders to continue to draw us back from harm, or make known our weaknesses, unrighteous choices, as Our Intercessor so we can enjoy life and live more fully known. If life’s become more busy and challenging, it’s time to pause and consider what we’re doing, looking at or consuming leading to this condition. Our realization something is off is God Himself trying to connect with you to let you know life doesn’t have to be a challenge. God desires to unearth our hidden bones [sinful nature] so we’re not wasting our time living in darkness, but instead understand we’re lacking [unclothed], and in need of restoration by and through the Spirit who alone can prepare us [clothed] for todays purposes. 🙏 “Are you there God?” And, Without hesitation or delay God responds... “Always.” Matthew 6:6 / New Living Translation 6 But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.

    When you think of God as a really advanced AI that's generating this reality, the idea that he's everywhere makes too much sense. This AI dropped "hints" in the Bible for us to get a remote idea of what it is.

Still living righteously, tithing my social security, praying and Bible reading every day ... I am NOT A Prosperity Gospel heretic ... But STILL ... Why is Christ appearing to wreck this great pain and hardship in my life? I ask Him to end my life at least once a week ... I have been a very good Christian Husband ... and THIS is the Divine Torture that I get? Psalms 31, 77, 88 ???? God appears uncaring and silent ... WHAT IS GOING ON ??????
