Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it. Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof. Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. (Psalm 65:9-11)
Man can do things to some extent for example build green house for the plants, vegetables, providing suitable climate for them to bear fruits, flowers but cannot make them bloom with flowers and bear fruits. God can only make this happen.
Every creation of God under the Universe proclaims the greatness of God the Creator. We see the stars and the moon in the sky at night, they proclaims how great is our Lord for no man can build even a single star. Likewise the sun, animals, birds etc proclaims the greatness of their Creator.
“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun” (Pslam 19:1-4)
The creation of God glorifies their Creator. As said above human beings can do things to an extent but not everything. Taking an example of the Indian economy where double/triple farming were introduced to boost up the Indian economy but only to an extent, they cannot make the crops bear fruits or flowers. The Minister cites an example of a person saying Indian Government can do a bit of things but they cannot bring the monsoon … how true is this as the power lies in God’s hands only. He only can bless the earth with monsoon.
When Russian scientists went out to the universe in a rocket they came back saying they did not find heaven, they said there is no God, but on the contrary the US scientists found the greatness of God in the universe and reconfirms the existence of God.
How did the creation proclaim God’s greatness? “Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge” (Psalm 19:2) Day in and day out they speaks about their Creator, and at night they spread God’s wisdom.
“There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.” (Psalm 19:3) This signifies non-verbal revelation of God, we can see God through his creation. The Minister quotes a sentence from an article which read “… people need picture not lecture …” If you still did not find God’s greatness or his existence wherein it has surrounded you and almost covered you then you must be spiritually blind and to heal this you need to accept Jesus Christ today itself.
“Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun” (Psalm 19:4) This verse tells us that if you did not hear the words of God wherein it has gone out all through the earth and to the end of the world then it means that you did not exist in this world. As you and I are the creation of God, we are also the ones to glorify our Creator as did the other creations.
“Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse” (Romans 1:19-20)
The creation of God shows the attributes of God. Through them one can find the greatness of the Creator. As you and I are the creation of God our goal should be to glorify God in each and every way we live and others should see God in us.
With this note the Minister ended his sermon.
