“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good” (Proverbs 15:3).
God is all-knowledge. Did you ever think about this? God has never thought about anything. Did it occur to you that nothing has never occurred to God? God’s wisdom is perfect and immediate. He doesn’t need to think a situation out, for He already knows what to do. Man is somehow trying to create that with his computers. The difference between a computer and God is that with man’s programming it has to deal with “garbage in, garbage out.”
David describes God’s omnipotence in verse 14: “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” God’s ways are marvelous, full of marvel.
Verses 7-10 speak of God’s omnipresence: “Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.”
God wears the universe. It is His garment and His vesture. He puts it on as He would a cloak. The Spirit of God inhabits the entire universe. God wears the universe like a cloak, or a vesture:
“And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail” (Hebrews 1:10-12).
A vesture is a robe. Jesus Christ wore a seamless robe that was bigger at the bottom than it was at the top, and it is a picture of the universe. It is a picture of God wearing the universe. God is the head of the universe, and the universe is shaped like a pyramid. In the sides of the north, the mountain of his holiness. Heaven is described as a pyramid-shaped mountain.
Einstein figured out that all parallel lines meet in infinity. The universe is shaped like a garment, like a pyramid. We have a pyramid on the back of our dollar bill. Satan uses that as a symbol of his unity with himself—the all-seeing eye at the top. Satan is great for counterfeiting God’s truths. Even the pyramids of Egypt are reported to have strange qualities about them. The reason that the Egyptians used pyramids was due to the preserving power in their structure.
God is all-knowing, all-present, and all-powerful. These “eyes of the Lord,” are defined for us in Revelation 5:6: “And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.” The “eyes of the Lord” are defined as the “seven spirits.” And these spirits are defined for us in Isaiah.
“And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD” (Isaiah 11:2).
“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good,” so the Lord sees everything.

All glory to God! I hope that at least once in my day that I please God in my thoughts ,words or actions as I know he sees massive amounts of sin and I know he has seen me in that manner as I too am a sinner seeking his love and grace.
