The Comfort and Confidence of the Watchful Eye

But because their God was watching over them, the leaders of the Jews were not prevented from building until a report was sent to Darius and he returned his decision.
Ezra 5:5

 

 

My Takeaways

Something Old

God knows when we are faking it. (Zechariah 7:5)

Something New

They had no need to fear because their God was watching over them.

This confidence

• Helped them stay focused on the task of rebuilding.
• Supplied the energy needed to continue.
• Bolstered their success.
• Gave them courage to face their enemies.

As we rebuild and focus on our task, we don’t have to be afraid either.

• The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous And His ears are open to their cry. (NASB) Psalms 34:15
• The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forever. (NASB) Psalms 121:8
• The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good. (NIV) Proverbs 15:3
• So that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. (NIV) Matthew 6:4

Something to Do

Praise Him for His watchful eye.
