Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens, praise him in the height! Praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his host! Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars! Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens! Let them praise the name of the LORD! For he commanded and they were created. And he established them for ever and ever; he fixed their bounds which cannot be passed. Psalm 148:1-6
If we really believe this Psalm of the Bible telling us that
he put the waters above the heavens and created the sun, the moon, and the
stars, we will want to praise the LORD. I do. Then he established them to
remain the same for ever and ever. WOW! How cool is that? We do not have to
worry about waking up one day and there will be no sun, moon, stars or rain.
Does not that confirm in our minds that God is the creator? From the beginning
of Genesis and the beginning of written history these items have been in our
sky.
Whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be
put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear
before him. Ecclesiastes 3:14
Then God tells us nothing can change these creations. What a
great statement that is!
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never
perish. John 10:28 My salvation shall never be ended. Isaiah 51:6
Then God tells us he can and will give us eternal life as
his creation shall never be ended. He sent Jesus to prove there is life after
death here on earth. This is so assuring. This should keep us from ever feeling
we are alone without God watching over us from the heavens.
Prayer: Thank you for these assurances about your creation, Lord.
Thank you for sending Jesus who rose after being crucified. Thank you for this
assurance that we can have eternal life also. Amen.
