Evidence of God

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day, they pour forth speech, night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out it to all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.

Psalm 19:1-4

We are surrounded by fantastic displays of God's craftsmanship - the heavens give dramatic evidence of His existence, His power, His love, and His care. To say that the universe happened by chance is absurd. Its design, intricacy, and orderliness point to a personally involved Creator. As you look at God's handiwork in nature and the heavens, thank Him for such magnificent beauty and the truth it reveals about Himself. The apostle Paul referred to this psalm when he explained that everyone knows about God, because nature proclaims God's existence and power (Romans 1:19-20). This does not cancel the need for missions, because the message of God's salvation found in his Word, the Bible, must still be told to the ends of the earth. While nature points to the existence of God, the Bible tells us about salvation. God's people must explain to others how they can have a relationship with God. Although people everywhere should already believe in the Creator by just looking at the evidence of nature around them, God needs us to explain His love, mercy, and Grace. What are you doing to take God's message to the world?

God Bless you,
