He
Who
Guards Your Soul
Knows
You Knew.
Scripture
Proverbs
24
12 Don’t
excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know.”
For God understands all hearts, and he sees you.
He who guards your soul knows you knew.
He will repay all people as their actions deserve.
For God understands all hearts, and he sees you.
He who guards your soul knows you knew.
He will repay all people as their actions deserve.
Numbers
32
23
“But
if you fail
to keep your word, then you will have sinned
against the Lord,
and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.”
Observation
If
there is a God, and yes, there is a God, then of course He
understands all hearts, and He sees us. And God who guards our souls
knows we knew.
When
I read Proverbs 24:12 it reminded me of Numbers 32:23, “But
if you fail
to keep your word, then you will have sinned
against the Lord,
and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.”
God
loves us, but He hates sin. He knows exactly what we do. He doesn't
miss a thing. There is no such thing as secret sin. We might keep it
secret for awhile but we can be sure that our sin will find us out.
God
knows and He knows that we know when we sin. So what should we do?
We must confess our sins. “But if we confess our sins to him, he is
faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all
wickedness.” 1 John 1:9
So
lets not make excuses. Lets not blame those around us. God
understands all hearts, and He sees us. God who guards our souls
knows we knew. He will repay all of us as our actions deserve.
(Proverbs 24:12 personalized)
Application
I
will confess my sins as I commit them.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I know that there is not one detail of my life that escapes
Your attention. You see me 24/7. I know that there are times when my
actions make You sad. I know that You love me but You hate sin. Help
me to not yield to temptation. Keep me strong. When I do sin don't
let me let it go unconfessed. Bring conviction immediately to my life
and don't let me make excuses or blame someone else when I sin.
