Today’s text describes some categories of evil doers identified as murderers, adulterers and housebreakers who carry out their nefarious and shameful activities under the cover of darkness so that they will not be easily discovered. These are still very common in our contemporary society. They try to carry out their acts to evade discovery by law enforcement agents or other individuals.

Are you involved in any secret, sinful deal that is yet to be discovered? Are you stealing from your employer, parents, friends, customers or even from the church? Do not be deceived; God knows all your actions because His “eyes… are in every place, beholding the evil and the good” (Proverbs 15:3). He will certainly judge and bring to light, the hidden things of darkness.
