Introduction. The wisdom and power revealed in the material creation far exceeds the beauty and function of each individual part. Viewed separately, the sun and moon are beautiful. But the complex relationship between the sun, the moon and the earth creates an amazing synergy. As the earth orbits the sun, the tilt of the axis creates seasons and as the moon orbits the earth it creates tides in the sea. These precise calculations have kept stability for all life. Yet the most awesome is that God was working with “things that are not visible.” The finished product that we now see was framed and formed out of things we can’t see. God planned every aspect of this creation out of things we can’t see, then created it perfectly and flawlessly in six days.
The magnitude of this statement takes a few moments to process. God planned an entire universe with each individual part prepared to work cohesively with the whole and then created it with no flaws and no need to change or modify anything. The power of the heavens declaring His glory is only magnified as our science slowly unlocks more and more of these intricacies.
- By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. Heb. 11:3
