Lessons From The KingsSample

Nothing is Hidden from God
“None of us, my lord the king,” said one of his officers, “but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom.” 2 Kings 6:12
The King of Syria was in a big dilemma. Every secret plan he made with his officers against the King of Israel was divulged to him. He now speculates that there is a traitor in his team. That’s when one of the officers tells the King of Syria about Elisha. God was revealing to Elisha all the plans of the King of Syria and he in turn was forewarning the King of Israel.
Isn’t it an incredible thought that the Lord knows everything about every one of us? Psalm 139 says the Lord actually perceives our thoughts, words and all our ways. In a positive sense it fills us with a sense of security that the eyes of the Lord are watching us; He cares for us and is mindful of all that we go through. On the other hand, it also reminds us that every thought, word and deed that is not glorifying the Lord and demeans others is also being recorded by the Lord.
Jesus’ exhortation to his disciples in Luke 12:2-3 is a good admonition for us too. “For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear in inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.”
