September 28 Morning Devotional | The Lord Looks Down; He See Us | Morning and Evening by Spurgeon

Morning, September 28 | “The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.” —Psalm 33:13 (NASB)

This Morning's Scripture Reading: Psalm 33:12-15 (NASB)

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.
The Lord looks from heaven;
He sees all the sons of men;
From His dwelling place He looks out
On all the inhabitants of the earth,
He who fashions the hearts of them all,
He who understands all their works.

Devotional Transcript:

Perhaps no figure of speech represents God in a more gracious light than when he is spoken of as stooping from his throne, and coming down from heaven to attend to the wants and to behold the woes of mankind. We love him, who, when Sodom and Gomorrah were full of iniquity, would not destroy those cities until he had made a personal visitation of them. We cannot help pouring out our heart in affection for our Lord who inclines his ear from the highest glory, and puts it to the lip of the dying sinner, whose failing heart longs after reconciliation. How can we but love him when we know that he numbers the very hairs of our heads, marks our path, and orders our ways?

Especially is this great truth brought near to our heart, when we recollect how attentive he is, not merely to the temporal interests of his creatures, but to their spiritual concerns. Though leagues of distance lie between the finite creature and the infinite Creator, yet there are links uniting both. When a tear is wept by you, think not that God does not behold; for, “Just as a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.” (Psalm 103:13 NASB) Your sigh is able to move the heart of Jehovah; your whisper can incline his ear unto you; your prayer can stay his hand; your faith can move his arm. Think not that God sits on high taking no account of you. Remember that however poor and needy you are, yet the Lord thinks upon you. “For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.” (2 Chronicles 16:9 NASB)

Oh! then repeat the truth that never tires;
No God is like the God my soul desires;
He at whose voice heaven trembles, even he,
Great as he is, knows how to stoop to me.
