No Hiding From God



Psalm 139:7-12

Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,”
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You.

It is impossible to hide from God, yet I see many people trying to do just that. People think they can make God go away by denying His existence or by creating a god to their own liking. The fallacy which states “all roads lead to heaven” is denying the truth, and you cannot hide from God behind it. Wherever you are, God is there also. He is either your Lord and Savior or Judge. The awesome thing, God wants to lead people out of darkness (sin and death) and into the light (salvation through Jesus Christ). Also see: John 14:6 and 1 John 1:5-7

  5. Hello, If we are truthful we all try at some time or other to hide from God. And yet, how can we, He is the core of our very being. I picture that Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve ran to hide. It is almost amusing, yet when we do try and hide its usually because we don't want to own up. Blessings to you brother..we all need to think on this.

  7. Amen! Someone told me it was ignorance and arrogance to think that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. I think it is arrogance and ignorance on their part to reject God's amazing plan and the fact that Jesus was willing to die in their place that they might be forgiven.
