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 (Hebrews 4:13).
One year, I planted a church in a little town in the south of France. I had five Bible studies going, so I combined them all into a church. We met in a restaurant on Sunday evenings when the restaurant was closed, and all went exceedingly well. However, in a neighboring town a certain pastor called all the people in my church and told them to never go back. They obeyed one of their own nationality, and I was left with nothing.

There is nothing that can be hidden from God; everything in all creation is exposed and lies open before His eyes. And it is to Him that we must all give an account of ourselves (Hebrews 4:13 Good News Bible).
When I was a young Christian, I used to make up plans for the Lord to perform and go to Him, not only for His approval, but for His compliance. God is a terrific Daddy! Beyond compare! He never once told me my plans were stupid and would come to nothing. He went right along with me, holding my hand through the whole process, me leading the way, and eventually, He stood with me to watch the debacle of complete failure. Then I’d get mad at Him! 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 (Hebrews 4:13).
There is an absolutely fraudulent thing that all human beings do to themselves that makes no sense at all. I first discovered it in myself and then, as I observed, I discovered it in everybody else. We believe lies. Oh, we don’t know we believe lies; we consider everything we think is the truth; otherwise, we wouldn’t believe it. In myself I realized that I could read something resolutely powerful in the Bible, and it would be evident that God wanted all of us to have this gift, but a voice inside of me would invariably say, “Yes, but it’s not for you.” There is nothing that can be hidden from God; everything in all creation is exposed and lies open before His eyes. And it is to Him that we must all give an account of ourselves (Hebrews 4:13 Good News Bible).
The Lord will sometimes tell me the secrets a certain person is hiding. He does that for two reasons:
