Title: Irrefutable Witnesses / Topic: Faith

Today’s Reading: Exodus 37; Exodus 38; Psalm 19; Acts 11

Scripture: Psalm 19:1-4
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.
3 There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard.
4 Their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.

Observation: No one can truly claim that they have been given no opportunity to gain an awareness of God. The created world gives constant testimony of the Creator. There are many who call themselves athiests or agnostics -- athiests believing there is no supreme being and agnostics believing that belief in God is impossible -- one just cannot be sure about this.

Application: I just appreciate that God uses many ways to let people know that He is there. I believe that people who don't believe in God have made a choice to believe in a way that fits their desires and lifestyle. Ultimately, every person will stand before God and give an answer for what they believed and how they lived. Those who didn't believe in Him will have to try to explain how they found it possible to disregard the irrefutable and obvious witness of nature.

Prayer: Thanks Lord for giving many ways and means for us to know of You and to know You. I'm glad You drew me into faith with You. May I help to lead others to faith.
This I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
