In space, nothing! God spoke the universe;
Next came stars, who hung in place, one by one;
Then the sun, that earth its orbit traverse
Safely; no other planet can so run.
His Word called on the dusty land to rise
From watery depths that compassed the void,
Changed damp clay to flesh, and shaped it to size
Of man, and quickened him by His breath convoyed;
Fashioned immortal a soul inside man;
Poured grace on him, that he be freed from sin;
That those who choose may have a promised land:
A pit and lake of fire for stubborn men.
He is Jehovah, one Lord over all;
To Him, all shall kneel; His name, all will call.
Scientists have found that at a point in space 13.7 billion years ago, there was
nothing: No air, no elements, no gases, no matter, no energy. Nothing! Suddenly there was a burst of energy, and from that one burst of energy, all gases, all atoms, all molecules, all energy, all matter including stars, planets, heavenly bodies, and the earth formed from just that one burst of energy. After 13,700,000,000 years, man appeared on earth. If you think of a 365-day year, January through December, as equal to that 13.7 billion years, the burst of energy appeared at 12:00:01 seconds on January 1st, and man appeared on earth at 11:56:15 on December 31st. In other words, God went to an humongous amount of trouble to fix everything just right for man to live about 3 minutes 45 seconds!
We live in the only small space in the entire universe that would allow us to live at all!
Not luck. God. How great He is! He SPOKE all this into existence, so that a few of us could choose to follow Christ and thus enter heaven at death, while the vast majority of people lived their lives ignoring and rejecting the God that did all this for us, and they will spend an eternity in hell for their stubbornness!
Please read Psalm 19:1-6 and think about the words. It says that all of nature shouts to us day and night about the Creator who made nature, but does it without saying a word. Go outside tonight, and look up at the starry sky. Think about Who made all of this, and how it wasn't just chance!
