God Is Watching Over You

Grandmom Bonnie walked her dog this cold morning and came across a young girl, who had a sad face without wearing a hat, a scarf or gloves.

Bonnie sensed that she seemed to miss the bus and that’s why she had to walk in the cold.

After passing by her, Bonnie turned around and called the girl, “Here, have these on and you may have a good day.”, Bonnie said while taking off her warm mittens from her hands.

“Oh, no, thank you.” the girl might not want to cause the white-hair old lady to get cold without her mittens.

“There is God watching over you. It’s this loving God who turned someone around to call you and show His care on you.” Bonnie was assured and praised God in her heart.

Who is coming close to you to show God’s care for you?

Give thanks to Him for that person.

Do you know that the Creator God is all knowing and omnipresent?

If you know He sees your heart and mind, do you choose to run away from Him because of fearing Him to expose your evil thoughts?

You are not alone. We all want to run away because we cannot be perfect without having bad thoughts. However, if someone took over your shame and guilt and evil thoughts on behalf of you to be exposed by God of justice like paying your fine and clean your record completely, will you be willing to come to Him for a clean slate?

That is why Jesus Christ came from heaven and bore your blames and wounds and curses. He put all of them on the cross and consumed them with His death when He was crucified.

When you lifted up your head to watch Jesus Christ, it is just as easily as looking at the bronze snake pole lifted up by Moses to heal those people who got bitten by poisonous snake and dying. (Numbers 21:4-9)

Just turn to look to Jesus Christ. Believe in Him who is God and took your blame, so that the wrath of the just God will not fall on you. And believe in Jesus Christ who was resurrected from the dead for you to live in you so that you shall live a new life to eternity.

Coming to the Lord Jesus Christ is your healing today.

  2. There was a figure of a snake in the garden
    who sought out the weaker human
    His words were full of poison to create much confusion
    Promising them a better understanding and conclusion
    Of becoming their own God they could choose
    To be exalted and make their own rules.

    Offering them a new beginning
    One that allows them a better way of living
    With eyes that would be wise
    And a godlike state they didn’t hesitate
    By eating from a tree God told them to forsake

    God came down to confront their disobedience
    Yet they fled away to hide and thinking to cover their flesh
    But the Lord know about their defiance
    And had this matter to address.

    He clothed them and then expressed
    Their fallen nature that will now bring sorrow and death.
    So from the garden they were driven,
    And an angel with a sword come down from Heaven.
    To keep them away from the Tree of Life that was planted there,
    Which would make them live in an eternity state of sinful despair.

    Many years passed by when a man named Moses was alive
    Who was told to make a pole of brass
    With a figure of a snake to look upon in order to survive
    From a poisonous bite that was a punishment for their unrighteousness.

    The Lord used this symbol of what He was about to show
    How He was going to hang on another tree
    To be able to heal our sin-sick soul and make us whole
    So the poison of sin will be removed and make us free.
    As we look upon Him and believe,
    Confessing our sin and trusting only in Him,
    Eternal life in His kingdom is a gift we receive!
