WOW! What an amazing video from the Newsboys to go along with their song called In Wonder. You will see some spectacular witnesses to the wonder of God’s creation. God created His world in such a way that we would do just that – stand in wonder and awe based on the overwhelming evidence. We cannot afford to go through the day neglecting to focus on the marvelous work of God’s creation. According to David God’s creation speaks to us: “The heavens are telling of the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1). The sun, moon, stars and clouds tell us that what we see around us is a visual display of the glory of God.
The world around us also makes us accountable to God as our creator because the world around us is the obvious ‘link’ of evidence that shows God exists and created all things. It didn’t and couldn’t just happen. Forget about the missing link – we have the present link right in front of us every day as we look around. That doesn’t bid well for the evolutionist and atheist. ALLLLL that evidence right in front of their noses and they refuse to believe. You know the saying: An atheist cannot find God for the same reason a thief cannot find a policeman”.
It is critical for our faith that we use the creation to point us to God and move us to serve Him as our creator. You see, God did not only create the lakes, trees, animal life, mountains, sun, moon, stars, etc. – God also created us. And since He created us we belong to Him. His desire is not to rule over us like some tyrant; rather, God is a God of love who wants us not as slaves but He wants us to be His children that He dearly loves and deeply cares for.
You will love the scene in this video as it flies high along the mountain peaks to the highest point – and at that highest point there is a cross. I don’t know who put it there but it’s in the perfect spot because of all God created…His finest work is Jesus on the cross to redeem us.
Read Psalm 19:1; 33:1-22; Romans 1:20 and enjoy the video of In Wonder by the Newsboys.
Psalm 19:1
The heavens tell of the glory of God;
And their expanse declares the work of His hands.
Psalm 33
Praise is becoming to the upright.
Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre;
Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.
Sing to Him a new song;
Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
For the word of the Lord is right,
And all His work is done in faithfulness.
He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And by the breath of His mouth all their lights.
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap;
He puts the depths in storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
For He spoke, and it was done;
He commanded, and it stood firm.
The Lord nullifies the plan of nations;
He frustrates the plans of peoples.
The plan of the Lord stands forever,
The plans of His heart from generation to generation.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
The people He has chosen for His own inheritance.
The Lord looks from heaven;
He sees all the sons of mankind;
From His dwelling place He looks out
On all the inhabitants of the earth,
He who fashions the hearts of them all,
He who understands all their works.
The king is not saved by a mighty army;
A warrior is not rescued by great strength.
A horse is a false hope for victory;
Nor does it rescue anyone by its great strength.
Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who wait for His faithfulness,
To rescue their soul from death
And to keep them alive in famine.
Our soul waits for the Lord;
He is our help and our shield.
For our heart rejoices in Him,
Because we trust in His holy name.
Let Your favor, Lord, be upon us,
Just as we have waited for You.
