What The Lord Knows.

What The Lord Knows.

Palm 1:1-6NKJV

What does the Lord know? Maybe a better question is, “What does the Lord not know.” He’s Creator of physics, nuclear science, he designed Jets and rockets plus anything else that comes into the future. God did it first; God is the Master Designer!

Psalm 1:1-6NKJV Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither;?And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Notice, Psalm 1.1 Howard’s paraphrase: Blessed, Happy, Fortunate to be envied is the man or woman who stays true to God and to His Word.

Believer’s refuse to take any counsel from the ungodly! The believer refuses to walk, stand or sit in the seat of the scornful. For the growing believer won’t make any room for non-sense.

Again, walk not, sit not, nor stand not with the wicked. In all the pathways of life, choose life!

Psalm 1.1TPT What delight comes to the one who follows God’s ways! He won’t walk in step with the wicked, nor share the sinner’s way,

nor be found sitting in the scorner’s seat.

There are at least 3 must, from Psalm 1.

1- We must be separated from the world

2- We must be saturated with the word

3- We must rejoice by the waters

Psalm 1.1, We must be separated from the world.

Let them cuss, let them hate, let them be prideful, let them scorn. However, the Godly will stand fast against all the wiles of the devil.

Wiles are tricks or manipulations designed to deceive someone. Wiles of the devil are those clever schemes used by Satan to ensnare us through temptation, threat, or intimidation.

Psalm 1.1MSG How well God must like you- you don’t walk in the ruts of those blind-as-bats, you don’t stand with the good-for-nothings, you don’t take your seat among the know-it-alls.

Again, 1. Being separated from the world is a good thing.

The optimist says, the cup is half full. The pessimist says, the cup is half empty. The child of God says; “My cup runneth over.”

Within everyone’s future, the most important words to remember to live by is:

For the Lord knows... He knows my future, He knows my pain, my anxieties, He even knows the day and time I will enter my heavenly home! (If you’re a believer, it will be your permeant address).

“You might not know but He (God) knows.” P.H

Hear Job’s testimony, Job 23.10AMP But He knows the way that I take [He has concern for it, appreciates, and pays attention to it]. When He has tried me, I shall come forth as refined gold [pure and luminous].

For every saint in this house, the Lord knows. (You can’t know, nor would you want to know), but the Lord knows! He knows the end from the beginning.

Take a deep breath and hear, Hebrews 2.10NLT God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children into glory. And it was only right that he should make Jesus, (the Captain of their salvation), through his suffering, a perfect leader, fit to bring them into their salvation.

My Savior, your Savior, was found fit (through His sufferings), Jesus was the perfect leader.

Psalm 1.2AMP But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night.

2- We must be saturated with the word.

Preachers/teachers, to produce growth within, and growth throughout God’s church, you must stay saturated and passionate for God’s Word.

God will know it, and people will see it, and be drawn to it! P.H

But his or her delight. -What’s truly your delight? Those who take delight in God’s word, meditating day and night will grow, grow upward and downward.

AW Tozer once wrote, “The widest thing in the universe is not space; it is the potential capacity of the human heart. Being made in the image of God, it is capable of almost unlimited extension in all directions. And one of the world’s greatest tragedies is that we allow our hearts to shrink until there is room in them for little besides ourselves.”
