“The eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him” (2 Chronicles 16:9 KJV)
NASB emphasizes, "that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His" - 2 Chronicles 15:17, shows that Asa's heart was blameless all his days. Yet in context of 2 Chron 16:7-10, shows Asa king of Judah had fallen away and began relying on his deals with other kings instead of "the LORD your God", he had forgotten how God searches the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him (2 Chron 16:9 NLT). I've often seen this verse as being a blessing, but in contexts - it's a rebuke to one whose fallen away and Asa is angered when hearing this. Wowza, it's like "I have some good news and some bad news. Let's start with the bad news..."
Eyes of the LORD (God who sees me El Roi - Gen 16:13,7-16)
- The eyes of the Lord are in every place, Watching the evil and the good. (Proverbs 15:3)
- For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their iniquity concealed from My eyes. (Jeremiah 16:17)
- His eyes are upon the ways of a man, and He sees all his steps (Job 34:21), He provides them with security and they are supported; HIs eyes are on their ways (Job 24:23 ESV)
- Does He not see my ways and number all my steps (Job 31:4 ESV, Job 33:11 ESV), he watches ALL my paths. Amazing God knows my life like those decision novels, turn to page ___ to go or page ___ to stay.... loved those stories growing up.
