Daniel 5:27
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.
God weighs our thoughts,motives and actions on His weighing scales and decides what to do with us.Sometimes He sends out a warning that you are being weighed on His scales.We can claim we are right in doing this and that but He is the one who weighs every actions of men and women and decides what to do with them.Only He knows what we are up to and what could correct our ways.
Daniel 5:18-21
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
“O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar sovereignty and greatness and glory and splendor. Because of the high position he gave him, all the peoples and nations and men of every language dreaded and feared him. Those the king wanted to put to death, he put to death; those he wanted to spare, he spared; those he wanted to promote, he promoted; and those he wanted to humble, he humbled. But when his heart became arrogant and hardened with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and stripped of his glory. He was driven away from people and given the mind of an animal; he lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like cattle; and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he acknowledged that the Most High God is sovereign over the kingdoms of men and sets over them anyone he wishes.
It is God's scales and only He can weigh you on His scales, no man can! Only He knows what is found lacking in you. No one else! It wouldn't be accurate either, if someone else weighs your actions. God is the only one who can do that. He rewards everyone according to what they have done. We may feel that what we are doing is right and everyone else is wrong but it is God who weighs our motives and ways.
Proverbs 16:1-2
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
To man belong the plans of the heart, but from the LORD comes the reply of the tongue. All a man’s ways seem innocent to him, but motives are weighed by the LORD.
