“Deceit is in the heart of
those who devise evil, but counselors of peace shall have joy."
Proverbs 12:20
David's sin with Bathsheba was
perhaps the lowest point of his life. Yet rather than immediately repenting
and seeking God's forgiveness, he began devising plans to cover his
sin. He went to great lengths to try to make it look like Uriah was
the father of Bathsheba's baby, and when that didn't work he arranged
Uriah's murder. He devoted great effort and used his office for his
cover up, and in human terms he did a pretty good job covering his tracks, “But the thing that David had done displeased
the LORD.”
No sin is ever hidden from the
eyes of God. We may cover sin from the eyes of men for weeks or months
or even years, but no sin stays hidden forever. God has set an unchangeable
law into the foundation of the world--the law of sowing and reaping.
"Be sure your sin will find
you out.”
