THE HEAVENS DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD

 THE HEAVENS DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD

Ps. 19:1-4 The heavens tell of the glory of God. The skies display his marvelous craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. They speak without a sound or a word; their voice is silent in the skies; yet their message has gone out to all the earth, and their words to all the world. NLT

What do they say? What does creation declare about God? The mysteries of creation overwhelm us. Consider the magnitude of creation, its design, its inter-dependency, its variety, its order, its beauty, its functionality, its dependability and all we can do is stand in amazement in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene who made it all and holds it all together. God is seen through His creation and He is everywhere to be seen. There is nowhere on earth that you can go without finding the evidence of God there.

The same things we observe in the heavens were seen in the days of Adam. Think about it. We see in the starry skies at night the same thing all the shepherds and nomads saw throughout Biblical history. We see what the Psalmist saw as he gazed up into the heavenlies and saw the glory of God on display. Do we see the glory of God on display in His creation? If not, why not?

The same laws of nature that were in force when God created all things are in force today and will continue to be in force until the Lord suspends them. The Lord spoke all things into existence and holds them together by the power of His spoken word.

The heavens declare the glory of God, from the rising of the sun to its setting and beyond. God has created all that there is and it is good. Praise the Lord from whom all blessings flow!
