How often do you think about the omnipresence of God? I know I don’t think about it as often as I should. If I did, I’d be forever mindful of my thoughts and actions and hopefully, as a result, I’d live a pure and blameless life before our God. But the truth is that God is everywhere. He sees everything and he knows everything. He knows what we do in public and what we do in private. Proverbs 15:3 reminds us of this:
"The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good."
Those who are innocent and being taken advantage of can take heart in this scripture. God is well aware of your situation. His eyes are everywhere, and he knows what you’re going through. For those who are away from God or have never known God, this verse is for you too. And for those who are doing wrong and believe that their actions have gone unnoticed, this verse is for you as well. The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good. Everyone on the face of this earth would do well to remember this truth.

Proverbs 15:3 reminds us that the eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good. This should serve as an incentive to be mindful of our words, actions and even our thoughts. If you knew your life would be laid bare before God, would you change anything? I encourage you to give that question some thought, because the truth of the matter is that whatever you’re doing, wherever you are, God is keeping watch. May we find God’s favor in our words and deeds.
