What other scriptures affirm God's awareness of human actions and thoughts? Setting the stage: Psalm 94:7 “They say, ‘The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob pays no heed.’” The psalmist replies in the next verses that the One who made eyes surely sees and the One who formed ears surely hears. Scripture echoes this truth from Genesis to Revelation. He knows our innermost thoughts - Psalm 139:1-4 — “O LORD, You have searched me and known me… Even before a word is on my tongue, You know all about it, O LORD.” - 1 Samuel 16:7 — “Man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart.” - Psalm 44:21 — “Would not God have discovered, since He knows the secrets of the heart?” - Jeremiah 17:10 — “I, the LORD, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way.” He observes every action - Proverbs 15:3 — “The eyes of the LORD are in every place, observing the evil and the good.” - Job 34:21 — “For His eyes are on the ways of a man, and He sees his every step.” - Proverbs 5:21 — “For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and the LORD examines all his paths.” - Psalm 33:13-15 — “The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the children of men… He considers all their works.” - Psalm 11:4 — “His eyes watch; He examines everyone.” Nothing remains hidden - Hebrews 4:13 — “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” - Ecclesiastes 12:14 — “For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether good or evil.” His eyes roam to help and judge - 2 Chronicles 16:9 — “For the eyes of the LORD roam to and fro over all the earth to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose hearts are fully devoted to Him.” - Revelation 2:23 — “Then all the churches will know that I am He who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.” Jesus affirms the same truth - Matthew 6:4 — “Your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.” - Luke 12:7 — “Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” From hidden thoughts to unnoticed deeds, Scripture consistently answers Psalm 94:7: God sees, hears, and knows it all—and He acts accordingly. |
