Never Forget

I was listening to a teaching recently and the person brought up a very good point. He said that we must always remember that our Heavenly Father is watching us. When we forget this, we stumble.

In this day and age, we have cameras everywhere. It can be quite unnerving to realize we are being watched everywhere we go, but we tend to take for granted that the King of the Universe has His eye on us 24/7.

Who am I living my life for right now, I ask myself? Where does my motivation come from? Am I living a righteous life in order to be pleasing to my Lord? Am I trying to do good in order to bring honor to His Name? Am I doing my part in our relationship by trying to please Him?

Ah, yes, these are the tough questions, yet we must get so close to Him that it is just a matter of fact that He is watching us. We must keep looking for Him, as well...everywhere!

We must never forget that the whole world is watching us and we may be the only Yeshua (Jesus) that they see, but let us remember that pleasing and loving Him should be the only thing that motivates us.

Psalms 26 (Complete Jewish Bible)

​1 (0) By David:
(1) Vindicate me, ADONAI,
for I have lived a blameless life;
unwaveringly I trust in ADONAI.
2 Examine me, ADONAI, test me,
search my mind and heart.
3 For your grace is there before my eyes,
and I live my life by your truth.
4 I have not sat with worthless folks,
I won't consort with hypocrites,
5 I hate the company of evildoers,
I will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash my hands in innocence
and walk around your altar, ADONAI,
7 lifting my voice in thanks
and proclaiming all your wonders.
8 ADONAI, I love the house where you live,
the place where your glory abides.
9 Don't include me with sinners
or my life with the bloodthirsty.
10 In their hands are evil schemes;
their right hands are full of bribes.    
11 As for me, I will live a blameless life.
Redeem me and show me favor.
12 My feet are planted on level ground;
in the assemblies I will bless ADONAI."
