Ezra 5:5 "But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them to cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this matter."
God governs in the affairs of men. He has purposes and plans that He is working through the actions of men. It's almost humorous when you think about the fact that mere humans think they can interfere in the working of the God of the Universe.
The Bible speaks several times of God's eyes. 2 Chronicles 16:9a "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him...." Often, the Bible says it is in God's eyes that righteous men found grace. 1 Peter 3:12 "For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil."
Nothing escapes His eyes, good or bad. I, for one, desire to find grace in His eyes. I desire to see His cause prosper through my life. Are you comfortable with the eyes of the One True God being over you? How can you find grace in His eyes today?
