Who is watching you? Why? Does it concern you? Where are the “records” kept, and for what reason? The race for dominance in knowledge [better maybe to say information] is considered necessary to control the world. Data, as it is mostly called when painted with a broad brush, is being cataloged on every person alive, and those dead are inventoried as well… but the focus is upon the living, they are classified as assets and liabilities. The final objective of the “masters of evil,” the cabal of elite back room mongrels, is to own “ALL” the asset of the earth; minerals, land, production of goods and services, property, gold, silver… etc., and human bodies, organs, souls:  Revelation 18:11-13 nkjv  gives us a list of Last Days collateral that the merchants and kings of the earth bartered in. They owned and controlled everything [sound familiar]. The caption verse above tells us Yahweh is watching all this, nothing misses His all knowing eye.

I read recently where the traffic radar cameras being used in the Chicago area have been finally deemed a failure to prevent accidents and make people have a safer travel and living experience… yet they did rake in over a Billion and one-half dollars [in traffic fines] for the corrupt government coffers [much funneled, most likely, into individual interest]… as well as record your location, time, and photo of your whereabouts. However, more thorough surveillance is being used in diverse applications… from inside your home to nearly every location you can drive or walk. Even when you sit and talk with others, your cell phone and Alexa [if you have it] are registering your conversation. And, every phone conversation and email, and text is logged into the behemoth data monster as well. Your financial activity is recorded as well. You and your family’s post on Fake Book, was designed to map you and your lifestyle. All kinds of privacy laws and promises are said to be in service… you get notices in the mail on a regular basis on what “they” do with your information… fat chance it remains confidential. Even your medical records, that “HIPAA” is set up for your “privacy,” can be accessed by most any attorney for “legal” inquiry… you think.

Just recently a powerful business CEO, married with family, was filmed fooling around with his “associate,” and subsequently has resigned from the incident, which was a real hit on the internet… seems that is what folks like to read about… I hope these facts are making the point I want to focus this devotional on… that being, you are being watched all the time, everywhere by evil predators... Then, if Yahweh too is cataloging your life, what would you want it to look like when He reviews it with you on judgment day, which WILL come sooner than most think, its just few heartbeats away. That said, it wold be a good idea to think about getting face to face with Him and repent of the things He disapproves of… and if you do so with an honest and contrite heart, He deletes them off the file He has for you to review with Him, when your appointment with Him comes up. Now some of you might be thinking, no one knows my discrete private life… try this one on for size:

“Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” heb 4:11-14 nkjv

The beautiful thing about how Yahweh has designed our life’s circumstances and associated interactions with everything… and the inner working of our mind, soul, and heart’s intents… is that He tells us there is no place to hide our dirty laundry. Why is that beautiful? Because knowing this, when we walk upright and holy before Him, we don’t need any “fig leaves,” [think Adam] to try to cover our sin. We just run to Him and seek His forgiveness and the devil has lost all his handles that he would otherwise have to jerk us around, and torment us with, concerning our guilty condition. It's called freedom:

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 jn 1:9 nkjv
