scripture
Genesis 1
observation
Notice the order of creation, God didn't get the fish created and then say oops, where do I put these guys at and when he created trees there was already dry land for them to sit on.
Except for God, everything else had a starting point, everything had a point where it didn't exist and then God merely spoke and then there it was. Just the power of his voice was all that was needed, in fact it seems that the only thing that God made "hands on" was the man and the woman, that should let me know that I am significant to God.
Psalms 33:6 The LORD merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born. 9 For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.
What awesome power that would cause something to exist from nothing and just look around at the magnificent creation that he made to display his majesty, what craftsmanship, what attention to detail. Everything that he made shows us what an awesome God we have.
Psalms 19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun.
application
I will always stand in awe of the magnificent work of our creator, every time I watch a nature show it is so sad at how far they will go to say that something else happened, he is an awesome God and his creation proves that he must be.
prayer
Thank you Lord for the awesome world that you gave us to enjoy, the heavens and earth display your glory. Thank you for creating a perfect environment on this planet to sustain life.
