“For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.” 2 Chronicles 16:9a (NASB)
The promise we look at today comes to us from the story about the prophet Hanani who was sent by God to warn King Asa of Judah regarding consequences of the King's disobedience. The prophet declares an important truth about God. We are reminded what our great God in heaven is looking for from His creatures on earth. He wants people to be fully committed to Him and His truth. Now, it is true that God knows everything and that He knows every one of His creatures. He knows all and He knows what we are doing each day. But even more important is that He knows our hearts. If our hearts are fully committed to Him, He responds to our faith by strengthening and supporting us. How wonderful it is to know that when our faith is tested God knows and he gives us the strength we need – that is our promise today.
