my scratch notes on God's OMNISCIENCE. share with me some of your own thoughts...
Omniscience (pronounced om-ni-sci-ence is the capacity to know everything infinitely, WHICH WOULD ENTAIL thoughts, feelings, life and the universe, etc. this ability is attributed to God AND IT INCORPORATES his omnipresence (He is everywhere at the same time and omnipotence (His strength).
"O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me" (Psalm 139:1)
God knew us in the womb and controlled each stage of our embryonic development. He knew and planned all the events of our lives. "How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God!" They are innumerable.
Omnipresence….God knows when we sit down or stand up. He even knows our thoughts. He knows our words better than we do ourselves . this speaks of God’s omniscience.
God knows where each of us is at any given moment. If He wishes to orchestrate for something to happen involving 2 people…He has the ability to bring those 2 people to the same place in a unique way to have something take place. Things like this happen to each of us frequently and they happen all around us. They also happen all through the Bible.
ESTHER 6: 1---
ISN’T IT SOMETHING HOW THAT ON THE SAME NIGHT THAT HAMAN CONSTRUCTED THE GALLOWS TO HAVE MORDECAI HUNG ON, THAT THE KING COULD NOT SLEEP, AND HE ORDERED THAT THE BOOK OF MEMORABLE DEEDS, THE CHRONICLES, BE BROUGHT, AND THEY WERE READ BEFORE THE KING????? CAN YOU SEE GOD’S HAND IN THAT? HAMAN WAS PLANNING TO TELL THE KING OF HIS PLAN THE FOLLOWING MORNING. GOD PREPARED THE KING’S HEART BY REMINDING HIM OF HOW MORDECAI HAD SAVED HIS LIFE. …..WHAT I LOVE SO MUCH ABOUT THIS IS THAT IT WAS A DIVINE REVERSAL. HOW MANY TIMES HAS SATAN SET UP GOD’S MEN THROUGHOUT HISTORY? HOW MANY TIMES HAS SATAN SET US UP? IT IS OBVIOUS THAT he is behind SO MANY OF OUR SITUATIONS. THEY ARE SURELY SATANIC SET-UPS. WELL HAMAN MASTER-MINDED A SATANIC SET-UP AND IT BACK-FIRED. IT WASN’T A CO-INCIDENCE THAT IT BACK-FIRED….HOW COULD IT BE? HOW COULD THE KING HAVE TROUBLE SLEEPING AND HAVE THE CHRONICLES BroUGHT IN ON THE VERY SAME NIGIHT THAT HAMAN CONSTRUCTED THE GALLOWS FOR MORDECAI TO BE HUNG ON? OH….IF PEOPLE WOULD ONLY FAMILIARIZE THEMSELVES WITH THE WORD OF GOD!!!
When my son corey was hit by a car at age 14 and the insurance company played it down…coincidentally, the woman I had hired to spackle my bedroom walls who was supposed to come to my house the very next day was right at the scene of the accident and told me that my son flew 35feet in the air. How would I have proven our case without her as a witness????? God knew all about the accident. He knew that the woman would be coming to our house the following day……
Get what I’m saying? God ordained for the woman to be in communication with me the very next day. She was supposed to come to the house, but I had to take him in for surgery so I had to call her to tell her not to come. When I explained to her about my son’s accident is when she told me she witnessed the whole thing. What are the chances of something like that happening? It was all God. He is omniscient…all-knowing.
Cain and abel…God knew that he killed his brother abel…when He asked. Where is you brother? cain answered… am I my brother’s keeper? God knew that cain killed his brother….He watched it happen. He was there.
What about when Samson prayed for one final gust of strength to knock down the building?
Omnipresence Nathaniel under the fig tree. Jesus knew what he was under the fig tree….
Cornelius praying…paul was instructed to go to his house.
And closer to our day and age…. what about the plane that landed on the Hudson in new York and all the passengers were standing on the wings of the plane, and no lives were lost….do you think that was coincidence with no divine providence involved? Think again….God knew their situation….He would not allow even 1 person to lose his life that day.
Corrie ten boom *when in concentration camp had a small Bible hidden in the back of her dress which made her dress bulge. . If caught she would have been killed on the spot. God knew that…..She was in line to be checked. She desperately prayed for God to send angels. God answered her prayer. the woman in front of her was checked and the woman behind her was checked, yet she wasn’t checked…she later wrote that she prayed an unorthodox prayer for God to send un-transparent (human form) angels because of her great need.. do you think that was luck on her part that saved her life? Think again. God knew about the situation she was in……….
PIT BULL in Baltimore …so big his name was bear…. Do you think it was luck that I wasn’t chewed up alive? Think again….God knew that my life was in danger…..and He came through for me….
MAYBE YOU ARE AN ELDERLY PERSON CRAVING FOR A VISIT OR PHONE CALL FROM YOUR CHILDREN. MAYBE YOU ARE A GRANDPARENT WHO IS GOING THROUGH IT ALL OVER AGAIN RAISING YOUR KIDS’ KIDS. MAYBE THEIR PARENTS ARE INTO DRUGS AND THE KIDS WERE DUMPED ON YOU….MAYBE YOU ARE A YOUNG MOTHER WITH KIDS AND YOUR HUSBAND HASN’T GIVEN YOU A PENNY TOWARD THEIR SUPPORT. MAYBE YOU ARE A MAN WITH A FAMILY AND THE PRESSURES OF PROVIDING FOR YOUR FAMILY HAVE OVERWHELMED YOU….WELL GOD KNOWS RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE AT. HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT YOUR HEARTACHE AND HE IS VERY CLOSE TO THE BROKENHEARTED.
MAYBE YOU HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH A TERMINALLY ILL DISEASE. YOU HAVE LITTLE CHILDREN AND YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO WILL RAISE THEM. MAYBE YOU’RE IN YOUR 4TH STAGE OF CANCER LIKE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT I KNOW PERSONALLY. YOU FEAR THE UNKNOWN. GOD KNOWS, HE SEES AND HE CARES. HE IS HEAVILY BURDENED FOR YOU.
Reach out and touch HIM and let Him love you.
