Summary
In this episode, Nancy Wilson looks at several passages on the eyes of the Lord, showing how God’s constant sight is both a comfort and a warning: comfort for the righteous, whose cries He hears, and terror for evildoers, who cannot hide from Him. She reflects on God’s care for His people, His judgment of good and evil, and the assurance that when believers pray, His ears are open to them.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Feminid Podcast. This is Nancy Wilson. Thanks for joining me today. I'm going to look at a few verses in the Psalms and Proverbs today that mention the eyes of the Lord. And we're going to take just a brief look at a few of those references |
| 0:21.3 | and consider how this should influence us in our understanding and our walk with God. |
| 0:26.9 | The first aspect is that God has his eyes on his people all the time, like good parents have |
| 0:34.6 | their eyes on their children. Psalm 3318, behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his mercy. |
| 0:44.7 | And Psalm 3415, the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry. |
| 0:50.7 | God loves those who fear him. |
| 0:52.4 | He cares for those who are looking to him in hope of mercy, |
| 0:55.8 | and his eyes miss nothing. His eyes are on those who fear him, the righteous, who are looking |
| 1:03.4 | to him in faith. He loves his people. He will never leave them or forsake them. Do you need help? |
| 1:10.5 | Hope and his mercy, because his eye is on you. |
| 1:14.1 | Are you included in the family of the righteous? Then his ears are wide open when you cry out to him |
| 1:19.5 | in your need. If you are one of the many who are called his own special people, then he is |
| 1:25.5 | watching over you and watching out for you. He's not capable of |
| 1:29.4 | distraction or disinterest. He is a loyal father who is keeping his eye on his people. Now, this |
| 1:37.4 | can be disconcerting if you're being disobedient because you want to hide like Adam and Eve, |
| 1:46.7 | keep your sinful thoughts or behavior out of his sight. But you can't. He sees and he knows. He sees secret sins and he sees sins done in |
| 1:54.8 | broad daylight. There's nothing he does not see. If you're behaving in a manner unworthy of your |
| 2:00.7 | high calling in Christ, then go. |
| 2:03.1 | Go to him now and confess your sin. His eye has already seen it. His ears have heard your cry for mercy, |
| 2:10.0 | grace and forgiveness. You cannot hide anything or any thought from the Lord. A good parent knows what his children are up to. Have you ever asked a |
| 2:20.5 | direct question of a disobedient child and seen the evasive response in the eyes and in the words? |
| 2:27.2 | Even we can sometimes discern a guilty conscience and how much more can God? So of course our ears |
