The Lord counts so many things that have to do with our lives. He is totally acquainted with everything that goes on in, and around us. Here are all the things that God counts it is interesting to note that 7 of these concern the details of our lives and 7 of them concern the world and universe we live in:
• Job 14:5 He counts and numbers all of our days Since his
days are determined, The number of his
months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot
pass.
NLT - You have decided
the length of our lives. You know how many months we will live, and we are not
given a minute longer.
• He counts all of my
steps: Job 31:4 Does
He not see my ways, And count all my steps? (Job 14:16)
• He is able to count the clouds: Job 38:37 Who can number the
clouds by wisdom? Or who can pour out the bottles of heaven,
• He counts the months and timing of every birth – even the
animals: Job 39:1-2
Or do you know the time when they bear young?
• He numbers our wanderings and the journey of our lives:
Ps. 56:8 You number my
wanderings; Put my tears into Your bottle; Are they not in Your book?
• He counts the stars: Ps. 147:4 He counts the number of
the stars; He calls them all by name.
Abraham couldn't count
the stars:
Is. 40:26 Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created
these things, Who brings out their host by number; He
calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength
of His power; Not one is missing.
NLT - Look up into the
heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out one after another,
calling each by its name. And he counts them to see that none are lost or have
strayed away.
• He measures the waters: Is 40:12 He measures the waters in the hollow
of His hand
• He measures the heavens: Is. 40:12 He measures heaven with a span
• He counts and measures the dust: Is. 40:12 He calculates the dust of the earth
in a measure
• He weighs the mountains: Is. 40:12 He weighs the mountains in scales
and the hills in a balance
• He has counted every hair on our heads: Lu. 12:7 But the very hairs of your head are
all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than
many sparrows. (Matt. 10:30)
• He counts those who are worthy to escape the weight of sin
and stand before the Lord: Lu. 21:36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted
worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before
the Son of Man.” (2Thess. 1:5, 11)
• He counts those who are faithful: 1Tim. 1:12 [ Glory to God for His
Grace ] And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because
He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,
• He counts those who are worthy of glory: Heb. 3:3 For this One (Jesus) has been counted
worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more
honor than the house.
The Lord does great and
wonderful things that are beyond counting and finding out:
Job 5:9 Who does great things, and unsearchable, Marvelous things without number.
Job 9:10 He does great things past finding out, Yes, wonders
without number.
Job 36:26 “Behold, God is great, and we do not
know Him; Nor can the number of His
years be discovered.
Ps. 40:5 Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works Which You
have done; And Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in
order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more
than can be numbered.
