God Sees All Things, Even the Secret Places

This section reminds us that God is everywhere and knows everything, even the most hidden things. Nothing is out of His sight. He is the perfect judge because He sees not only what people do, but also what is deep inside every heart.

v. 11: Hell and destruction are before the Lord. God knows all things, even those hidden from everyone else. The grave and all the dead are not hidden from Him. God knows exactly where every person is buried, even those in the deepest or most secret places. No one is lost to God, and He will have no trouble raising the dead when the time comes. Even the place of punishment and those who suffer there are under God’s eye. The word destruction here is “Abaddon,” which is also a name for the devil (Revelation 9:11 ^a). God sees and understands everything the devil does, no matter how sneaky he is (Job 1:7; Job 26:6 ^b).

If God can see through Satan’s tricks, He can easily see into the hearts of people. Much more the hearts of the children of men. Our hearts may be tricky and hard to understand, but God knows them better than we do, because God is greater than our hearts (Hebrews 4:13 ^c). He is a perfect judge because nothing is hidden from Him.
