“For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him...”

2 Chronicles 16:9a

 

God’s eyes are in every place, but especially upon the Church, His Bride, from the one end of the year to the other. He distinguishes with an accuracy peculiar to Himself, her true members from hypocrites. He knows her enemies, and restrains or destroys them. He knows when her members are in right exercise, and when they are in the wrong.
 

This should inspire fear and reverence, faith and hope, simplicity and godly sincerity in all her members! Christ is head over all things, for His Church, which is His body, the fullness of Him that fills all in all. He works as God in all places, but the particular sphere of His work is in HIS Church.
 

The Holy Spirit indwells the TRUE believers, making them “the temple of the Holy Spirit”, the TRUE Church. He gifts them, gives them authority and dominion, helps, convicts, and teaches them. Operating in that knowledge of truth is what will change the world in fulfilling the Great Commission!
