GOD IS MINDFUL OF MAN

FAITH CAPSULE: Are you mindful of God that is mindful of you?

Psalm 40

The book of Acts 13:22 recorded God’s word about King David, “And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom also He gave testimony and said, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.” Word testified that David is a man after God’s own heart meaning that David knows the heart of God. David pointed out God’s loving care for man. In book of Psalm 8:4, 144:3 he asked, “Lord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that You are mindful of him?” By virtue of David’s curiosity about God’s mindful for man, it is clear that indeed God is mindful of man.
We have a gracious merciful God. Despite man’s consistent sinful engagement, God remains consistently merciful. Are you mindful of God that is mindful of you?
Mindful of God is thought of man.
The revelation of God’s will for man is the thoughts of God towards of man.
God confirmed in Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” God meant what He said and He will do what He says He will do. God’s thoughts are good thoughts; God’s thoughts toward man are not in the assembly line, God’s thoughts are already in place for man to understand and know. God’s thoughts are in place and are waiting for man to enter into it. Truly, God is mindful of man.
The plan of God is for man to enter into what He has already put in place if man will know to ask. Jesus encouraged in Luke 11:9, “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Jesus did not ask us to beg for what is in place but to know to ask, seek, and knock. Asking is praying or calling on God through the name of Jesus Christ. A prayer that will never miss its target is asking for the will of God to be done. If there is any plan or place where a believer will want to be, it should be in the will of God. Jesus taught His disciples to always pray for the will of God (Matthew 6:10).
In your prayer are you asking, seeking, knocking the will of God?
King David admonished, “I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry.” (Psalm 40:1) In his waiting, he positioned himself in God’s word.
Wait patiently to receive and not miss God’s promise.

Prayer for today: Ask for God’s mercy to be upon you.
