Ever been called one of these.......'know it all'! I have! Not very nice eh? Oh well......I probably was being one at the time so I'm over it! lol Did you realize that we can call God a 'know it all' and it isn't an insult because he really IS one! It says so in many ways in the Bible. I looked up a bunch of verses on the Omniscience (the word that means he knows everything) of God and these were a couple of my favourites.
'Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.' Psalm 147:5
'Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.' Hebrews 4:13
You say 'so what'.......how is that going to make a difference in my day? Well, for me, being a person who tends to worry about what might happen in my future, I can know that only God knows what the future holds and I don't really need to waste all those precious brain cells every day conjuring up all kinds of scenarios that probably will never come to pass. I can trust the future to the One who knows it already and who loves me and my loved ones more than I can even imagine! Instead of worrying (thinking we are a 'know it all') we can put our energies into livin' and lovin' life and leave the future to our loving, all-knowing God!
How does it make YOU feel to know that God is a 'know it all'?
