Psalms 33:6
The scripture for today is Psalms 33:6
Psalms 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
"Why is this generation, obsessed with piecing together our beginning, looking everywhere but in God's Word? There can only be one answer. It wants to find Adam, but not in Genesis! Yet all the while the simple statement of Scripture stands firm, quietly inviting our faith: 'In the beginning God created....'
Doubt is in the air. But so are the birds, who fly above us better equipped for navigation than the latest air force fighter jets, able to traverse unmapped oceans with their built-in instruments. Controversy swirls around us. But so do the bats who effortlessly operate their ultrasonic radar, reminding us that neither technology nor wisdom is exclusive with the human mind. Skepticism encircles the earth. But so do the stars, speeding along in their unerring orbits, keeping their appointments with a precision that boggles the mind.
Book after book insists authoritatively that this earth evolved over millions of years. Evolutionists talk confidently about the magic of the ages, of happy accidents that exploded us ever upward - with never a need for intelligent direction, never a need for God. But all the while birds, bats and the stars eloquently challenge their entrenched beliefs. Long ago David proclaimed, "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech and, and night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard." Psalms 19:1-3
Nobody can escape the grand harmony as all nature joins the unmistakable chorus, 'There is a Creator!' But the one who made this world also let His creatures nail Him to a rough, splintery cross outside Jerusalem - so that lost sinners might find eternal life in Him. And even the evidence of the birds and the bats, of suns and racing constellation, convincing as it is, pales before the mighty argument of Calvary." George E. Vandeman, Seeing is Believing
