Hebrews 4:12-13
A. What we think about God is the most important thing about us.
B. When it comes to really knowing God and getting face to face with Him the best
resource by far is the Bible.
I. WHERE IS GOD? WHAT IS THE SCOPE OF GOD'S KNOWLEDGE?
A. "Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is ---- and
exposed before His eyes, and He is the one to whom we are
accountable." Hebrews 4:13
"His understanding has no limit." Psalm 147:5
B. God is omniscient which means His knowledge is limitless:
* God knows all about Himself (I Corinthians 2:11)
* God knows all about creation (Genesis 1:31)
* God knows all about historypast
(Acts 15:18); present
(Proverbs 15:3) and future (Isaiah 46:10)
II. HELP ME GOD! WHAT GOD ONLY KNOWS ABOUT US
A. God knows all about our faults, failures and fears.
"For our ways are in full view of the Lord, and He examines all our
paths." Proverbs 5:21
"My sins, O God, are not hidden from you; you know how foolish I
have been." Psalm 69:5 (Good News)
"So don't worry…your heavenly Father already knows what you need
(before we ask [Matthew 6:8])….and He will give you everything that you
need" Matthew 6:31-33
B. God knows all your feelings and frustrations.
"…you God have listened to all my troubles and have seen the crisis
in my soul." Psalm 31:7
"He is like a father to us, tender and sympathetic for He knows what
we are made of dust." Psalm 103:13-14
"Cast all your cares on the Lord, for He cares about you!"
1 Peter 5:7
C. God knows our future.
"Every day of my life was recorded in your book before any of them
ever began." Psalm 139:16
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord…plans to give
you a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
D. God knows all the good we have done.
"We should not grow weary in doing good because we will reap a
harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9
