God’s Work Speaks for Itself

Romans 1:20 says, “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – His eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.”

In preparation for a message, “What Happened 280 Days Before Christmas,” I was stunned by the amazing process of   the creation of new life! From zygote to infant in 40 weeks!

How did that blob develop a beating heart and a spine? How did it know to develop arms and legs, and where to put them?

The answer is in Psalm 139:13-14, “For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well.”

God’s design is so very interesting! Even our fingers are examples. The corrugations on the skin covering the fingers, we call them “fingerprints”, their arrangement distinguishes you from all other people. But, just think how difficult it would be trying to pick up small objects with slick, uncorrugated fingers!

A friend of mine, a medical doctor, was converted from atheism while working on a cadaver in medical school. He said, “I was dissecting the forearm and was amazed by the marvelous design which permitted the arm to rotate the hand 180 degrees, and the sliding joints in the wrist which permitted the hand to move in 360 degrees! I knew this was the design of a creator God, not a process of evolution!”

God is a great engineer!

Another miracle is water. Most objects contract in a very cold atmosphere. When fitting bearings in machinery with extremely close tolerances, I would put them in a freezer overnight to “shrink” them a little for easier insertion. But water is different. It expands ten percent when it freezes and that is why ice floats! Icebergs are an illustration of this. If water contracted when in turned to ice, it would sink and kill the aquatic life beneath it!

God is a great engineer!

Another miracle of God’s creative engineering is this spaceship we call earth.  He equipped it with everything we need for the journey…until He returns to take us with Him!

God is a great engineer!

 One thing most folks never consider is the fact that the earth is spinning at almost 1,000 miles an hour at the equator. What keeps us from spinning off this globe of earth?

OH, He thought of that too! He created the force of Gravity!

God is a GREAT ENGINEER!

I pray that you will allow the one who designed and created you to be your savior and life director… For His GLORY and for your benefit!
