'Before God' in the Bible

But Peter and John answering said to them, If it be righteous before God to listen to you rather than to God, judge ye;

who found favour before God, and asked to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob;

Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter, for thy heart is not upright before God.

But he, having fixed his eyes upon him, and become full of fear, said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Thy prayers and thine alms have gone up for a memorial before God.

and said, Cornelius, thy prayer has been heard, and thy alms have come in remembrance before God.

Immediately therefore I sent to thee, and thou hast well done in coming. Now therefore we are all present before God to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
