Psalms 19:1-3
The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
Day to day pours forth speech,
And night to night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech, nor are there words;
Their voice is not heard.
Psalm 19 is all about God's communication with man. The first truth to realize in this chapter is that communicates with man. For those who try to deny the existence of or speak as though He "might" be there but we can never really know, Psalm 19 is a legal argument against their empty thoughts. The end of the chapter talks about God's Word, as we know it today, the Bible. But, the first part of the chapter is captured in the first three verses above: God speaks to EVERYONE in EVERY language, through His creation. God has created this entire earth for us to see His glory. "The heavens declare the glory of God." God has placed the sun, the moon, the starts, the clouds, the wind and all the galaxies to declare His Divine Glory. Yet, a scientist can look out into space and still believe this all exists because of a mistake or because of natural selection. Just think how dumb that is. We have all of the heavens to see God's hand and His wisdom in His creation. In Proverbs 8 and 9 we read that God created all this in His Wisdom. In Colossians 1:15-19 we read that Christ was the Creator of all things and by Him all things are held together. Genesis chapter one it simply reads, "... and He created the stars also." God put the earth together in such a way man can hear the voice of God spoken in each cloud, each droplet of rain, each flake of the snow, each rainbow in the sky. Every falling star screams the glory of God. The day speaks of his majesty and the might of His mystery. Knowledge is in the dark and speech is in the light. We might not understand Spanish, or French, or Arabic, but there is NO man or women who can't hear the voice of God. Many refuse to acknowledge Him because of their pride and what that would demand of their life style. But, according to these verses, there is NO PLACE where God's voice is not heard. It should be noted that Romans 1:19-20 states that this voice of God, in the heavens and in creation, is enough for man to both know God and be condemned by God for rejection of the knowledge. Man will have no excuse. It matters not if he or she ever walked into a church and was preached to by a single message. The truth is that God gives them a message everyday to believe in Him.
