"THE EYES OF THE LORD watch over those who do right, and THE EARS OF THE LORD are open to their prayers. But, the Lord turns His face against those who do evil!"
One could make the following general statement; evil things happen to evil people. Another way to say the same thing is; you get what you deserve. The same thing could be said about those who do the right thing and serve the Lord. Good things happen to good people. We get what we deserve. For every action there is a reaction. Good choices lead to good consequences and bad or evil choices lead to bad and evil consequences. You know in your heart that this is true. That is why people feel guilty when they do something wrong, bad, or evil. How does this One Truth Today apply to our lives now? The simple answer is that there are still consequences for your choices and actions. THE EYES AND EARS OF THE LORD are on You!
The Lord is perfectly just. He turns His face against those who do evil. In other words, He turns His back on those who do not listen, love or fear Him. Those who do not follow His laws and commandments, He turns over to evil. In that God controls and owns everything, everywhere, one can conclude what will happen to those who are in His favor and those who are not in His favor. Evil things will happen to evil people. Good things will happen to people in God's favor. The ultimate result is how you will spend eternity. Will you be in Heaven with the Lord forever? Will you be separated from God for eternity in Hell. Do you have a personal relationship with the Lord? If so, THE EYES AND EARS OF THE LORD are on those who do right. The Lord turns His face from the evil!
The Lord is watching each of us as believer's right now. God hears our prayers and sees and hears us. There is great comfort in knowing that an all powerful and all knowing God is watching over us right now. Every prayer we utter and every need we have, He is aware of and does respond. Our prayers are answered in our best interest if we are in God's will and doing what is right. Knowing this is what allows us to understand that the "fear of God" is the beginning of wisdom. What a contrast between those that accept and receive the Lord and those that reject and disrespect Him. That is why we have turned from our evil ways. That is why we thank God for our Salvation every day. THE EYES AND EARS OF THE LORD are a blessing to those that love God!
