Introduction: Do you ever wonder how smart (wise) the God of the Bible is? One look at Psalm 139 gives the believer some details concerning the attributes of God.

1. He is all knowing! (Psa 139:1-6)

“O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. 2Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. 3Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. 4For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. 5Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. 6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.”

This text reveals that God knows all about us. Since He does, then what does that mean to you? Hopefully it leads us to love Him and trust Him.

2. He is everywhere! (Psa 139:7-12)

“7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 8If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. 9If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; 10Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. 11If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. 12Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.”

There is not anywhere that God is not there. That implies that He knows where we are located. That means we cannot hide from the Lord like Adam did. Have you ever been ashamed and attempted to hide from our Heavenly Father? It is no use!

3. He made us! (Psa 139:13-18)

“For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. 14I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. 17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! 18If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.”

Bottom line: Since God made us, we should yield our life to Him. God has every right to rule our life. He has our best interest in mind.
