The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right, and His ears are open to their prayers.
1 Peter 3:12a

“The righteous man ever attracts the Divine notice, and wherever he is, there is the ear of God; for, as every righteous man is a man of prayer, wherever he prays, there is the ear of God, into which the prayer, as soon as formed, enters.… His providence and blessing, are turned away from them; and He only looks upon them to abhor them, and to turn the arm of His justice against them.” – Adam Clarke

Live my life to attract Divine notice.

I attract Divine notice when I:

• Do what is right.

What is right? (1 Peter 3:10-11) (Psalm 34:12-18)

• Keep my tongue from speaking evil.
• Keep my lips from telling lies.
• Turn from evil.
• Do good.
• Search for peace
• Work to maintain peace

The bonus of all this?

“If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days…”
1 Peter 3:10

Happy/Good
Agathos– good; as to the believer, describes what originates from God and is empowered by Him in their life, through faith. intrinsically good, good in nature, good whether it be seen to be so or not
