How Can We Understand God's Omnipresence and Eternality?

Q: How did God create Himself? Where did God come from? How can God see everyone at the same time? Summary In this episode, Dr. E and Hanna dive into two main questions: Where did God come from? and How can God see everyone at the same time? Dr. E explains that Scripture reveals God as eternal—He has always existed and always will. Passages like Psalm 90 and Isaiah 40 affirm God’s existence “from everlasting to everlasting,” reminding us that He alone is the Creator and sustainer of all things. From the vastness of galaxies seen through the James Webb Telescope to the microscopic precision of an atom, creation itself bears God’s fingerprints. They also explore God’s omniscience and omnipresence—His ability to see and know everything at once. Using Psalm 139 and 2 Chronicles 16:9, Dr. E unpacks how God’s eyes roam the earth to strengthen those whose hearts belong to Him. Unlike Satan, who prowls step by step, God perceives all at once and intimately knows every detail of our lives. He doesn’t just see humanity collectively—He sees you personally. This eternal, all-knowing God is not distant but deeply present, caring, and actively engaged with those who are fully His. Takeaways God has always existed—He has no beginning and no end. Scripture, not speculation, defines our understanding of God’s eternality. Creation—from galaxies to atoms—reveals God’s creative power and design. God is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent—everywhere, all-knowing, all-powerful. Psalm 139 reminds us that God knows our thoughts, actions, and words before we do. God’s all-seeing nature isn’t distant; it’s personal, intimate, and loving. Find more episodes of Ask Dr. E here.
