The LORD as Creator, praises upon praises!
By Elizabeth Prata
Creation is amazing.
Bless the LORD, my soul!
LORD my God, You are very great;
You are clothed with splendor and majesty,
Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak,
Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.
He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;
He makes the clouds His chariot;
He walks on the wings of the wind;
He makes the winds His messengers,
Flaming fire His ministers.
(Psalm 104:1-4)
There are billions of stars in our galaxy, and billions of galaxies inside our galaxy and billions more galaxies outside it to the ends of the universe. The stars are innumerable, yet God created all the stars in one moment, as stated in Genesis 1:16 “And he made the stars also…
lol it’s like a throwaway line! Oh yah, He made stars too…LOL!
And He named them all!
When a person is injured and the body begins to repair itself, the body knows which kind of cell to replicate. It knows and it goes ahead and does it correctly. God’s perfection at the cellular level brings, home like two bookends the fact that God is author of every aspect of the universe from the macro to the micro. From the largest to the tiniest, He is behind it all, and worthy of praise.
How does a cell know to be itself and not another cell in another part of the body? It is the self-replicating DNA that regenerates us, physically. The scientific definition says ‘self-replication is any behavior of a dynamical system that yields construction of an identical copy of itself.’
Replicators have several parts:
–A coded representation of the replicator.
–A mechanism to copy the coded representation.
— A mechanism for affecting construction within the host environment of the replicator.
One of the truisms that scientists ignore when it comes to the evolution v. creation debate is that for there to be self-replicating DNA, which is a code, there must be a CODER. Someone must have created the code and installed it. No computer software created itself, ever. A software engineer created it and installed it. Information must have come from a Mind.
In addition, DNA is self-correcting! There are ‘fixer cells’ inside our bodies that hurry to a place where there is trouble and fix the cell! How does a fixer cell know to do that, and where to go? Again it is a praise to our Creator!
Think on Him today as Creator, and praise him at times throughout the day as you see some of His wonders.
May the glory of the LORD endure forever;
May the LORD rejoice in His works;
He looks at the earth, and it trembles;
He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
I will sing to the LORD as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God [ae]while I have my being.
May my praise be pleasing to Him;
As for me, I shall rejoice in the LORD.
(Psalm 104:31-34)
