God Knows the Whole Enchilada
Week 2 (March 15 – March 21, 2021)
God Knows What You Do
Verses for Meditation
3 You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do.
4 You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord.
– Psalm 139:3, 4 (NLT)
Have you ever had a younger sibling follow you around? You go to your room, they follow you. You are with your friends, and they want to be right there. What you eat, they want to eat. What you say, they want to say. Do younger siblings (or older ones in certain cases) annoy you at times?
Well, God is not like that. He is very respectful. He silently goes around with you – everywhere you go! Where you pause, He pauses. Where you stop, He stops. Most times, you don’t even realize that He is even there, but He is. He knows everything that you do – The Whole Enchilada! And yet, He always loves you – no matter what!
The Power of Words
Words can compassionately build a person up. Words can utterly destroy a person.
How do you feel when you remember some really harsh words that were spoken to you or about you?
How do you feel when you remember some genuinely encouraging words that were spoken over you?
What kind of words will you choose to say today?
Think About It
If you truly understood that God was always with you, how would that increase your peace? And since God knows what you are going to say before you even say it, what do you think would happen if you allowed Him to censor your words?
[We don’t know about you, but we constantly need God’s help in this “word” area (sad face).]
Praying for You
(Please personalize)
Father, You see each young person when they go out or when they are relaxing at home. O Lord, You know everything that they do. Also, You know what they are going to say even before they say it. Since You know the whole enchilada, please direct their steps when they go out and when they are at home. Help our cherished young people to say only those words that are agreeable to You.
Teach each dear student how to build others up, not knock them down, and edify others rather than constantly condemn them. Teach our precious young adults how to control the words they say, and may they know that You are always willing to offer assistance. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Have a great week, young friend!
Blessings!
