The sky is as blue as when the
dew upon it flowed. But though it's gone, silent
water will now be found. I will be your cross for ever.
I will be your cross for ever. Okay, so I think it's over. where it's written in Job 33,
God speaketh once, yea, twice, yet man perceiveth it not. God
Almighty has written two books, two books, and he speaks to mankind
through these two books. The first book is the book of
creation. Long before he wrote a book,
he spoke through his creation, nature. And the second book being
the book of scripture, God's written word. David wrote this,
the fool. The fool. have said there is no God. And the one who has said that,
fool who says that there is no God, obviously has not read either
book. Obviously. But now the one who
does, the person who does study both books, And you must study,
we must study both books. The one who does study both books,
God's book of creation and God's book of scripture, is wise because
of it. They had wisdom more than the
ancients, they would say. And we must study both. David
did. The writer of this psalm did.
He was a student of God's creation, and he was certainly a student
of God's Word, no doubt. If you've read his psalms, you
will read his esteem for God's Word. He said, it's unnecessary
to lose it. He studied creation, David did,
and thus God called him David. A man after my own heart. A man who communes with God.
A man who enjoys God. Spoken to by God through God's
Word. A man of great faith. I'd like
to be like David. I sure would. I'd like for it
to be said of me, I'm a man after God's own heart. Wouldn't you? I'd study both books. God's book
of creation, look at it, verse 1, his book of creation, the
heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament show of
his handiwork. The heavens declare the glory
of God. There's nothing which declares the existence of, the
power of, created glory of God more than the heavens. These
are two distinct things, heavens and the firmament. The heavens
being outer space, the solar system, the heavens. The heavens declare the glory
of God. The heavens, our solar system,
stars, countless by name. God has long counted. That's
what the Scripture says, he's counted the stars, he knows them
by name. I've just numbered them by name. Countless stars by other
names. Stars, sun, moon, planets. And this solar system, it's absolutely
incredible, for lack of a better word. Firmament, he said the
firmament showed his handiwork. Now the firmament is the atmosphere
immediately surrounding planet Earth. There is no other firmament
surrounding any planet, anywhere. People forget what science says,
forget all that, and if you're on the Star Wars system, you
don't believe that stuff, do you? It's a universal, not universal,
it's an earthly conspiracy to disprove God. There's no solar system. That
means, and they're trying to define life. The reason they
want to say that and believe that is so that they'll believe
there are other higher forms of life. And yet men reject God. And see, it cannot be possible,
and I didn't mean to get into this, but it cannot be possible
because Christ is Lord of the universe, heaven and earth. Is
it not? In heaven, when God does away with this planet, it's going
to be a meeting where God dwells with his people and they're all
going to be singing the same song of redemption that Christ
died for. He'd have to go to another planet
after those people. They'd have to go through the
same thing. That's just absurd. Get that out of your head. That's
just more foolish notions of modern man facing himself to
be wise. Those who are looking for black
holes, you know. Come on. You don't believe people
sit around and spend their time looking at black holes? In space,
the black hole is in their head. The firmaments show a continuum.
There's no other, there's no other, there's no other planet
in our solar system or any other that has this firmament surrounding
it. This protective atmosphere around
the globe by which life on this planet is sustained, by which
water stays here, and so forth. It's firm enough to show that
this happens. Oh my, there's only one like
it. It sustains life on this planet. Now, David wrote this,
I'm quite sure. David wrote this psalm while
he was sitting outside. under the stars, or outside in
the sun, sitting on the hillside, perhaps watching some sheep,
or else sitting on the patio of his palace in Jerusalem. I believe he was outside, observing
the stars, and the sun, the moon, and so forth. And he said, the
heavens declared that, don't worry of God, the firmament shall
lift his hand away. Verse 2, day after day, every
day, over the speech, it tells us something. Every day that
the sun, that we wake up and see the sun, every day it tells
us something, it's speaking to us. This is God's voice speaking
to us. Others speak night and day, every
night, shows us something. It should impart knowledge to
us. What? What does the day say? What does
every day say to us? What does every night teach us?
That God is. That God is. That our Maker is
divine. The last line of that song said
it. Day after day, God's creation
says God is. God's creation teaches us knowledge
of His eternal power and God is. You know where that's found?
His eternal power and Godhead, the invisible things from the
creation of the world are clearly seen. His eternal power. Romans 1. Now, you remember that.
Go over to Romans 1. Romans 1. We can quote that as
much as anything. Romans 1. Learn the Scripture. Learn them well. Be astute in
the Scripture. Romans chapter 1. Paul repeats
what David just said. Paul was originally, the same
thing originated with him. He... Oh, baby, the more I read
Scripture, the more I see, in the Old Testament, the more I
see where Paul and Peter and James and John got what they
said, and the more I see that our Lord was quoted and more
that it prophesied out of him. Romans 1, verse 19, "...that
which may be known of God." It manifests in them that all human
beings have this in them, or should have. God has showed it
unto them in their minds and hearts. The invisible things
of God from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being
understood by the things that are made. even His eternal power,
and God did so that they are without excuse." Verse 21 says,
"...when they knew God, or should have acknowledged Him as their
Creator, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful,
Peter, which Brother John read in the study tonight, 2 Peter
3, said, he said, they're willingly ignorant. Man does not want to
believe that there's a pre-actual. Why? That means he owns them. That means they answer to him.
That means he can do with them what he will. You see? So men
are willingly ignorant and set out to disprove their pre-actual. Ha! Psalm 2 says, "...he that
sits in the heavens laughs." Just prove you're a creator.
You might as well try to lock the sun out with a pair of sunglasses. I do no sun. Go ahead, idiot,
fool. Verse 21 says, "...they didn't
glorify him as God," that is, Creator, first and foremost.
Neither were thankful. They thought their own hands
and things got them what they got. We don't. It became vain,
so they started imagining things, making up. Evolution is the biggest
bunch of nonsense there was. Their foolish heart? Foolish
heart was darkened. Their whole mind was void. Reprobate
means void of any good sense. That's what reprobate meant.
God gave them over to reprobate minds, and they don't have a
lick sense. The next verse says, "...professing in the sense of
being wise, sir." He became uneducated. You can look at your thumb. Everybody
in here can look as far as their thumb and see what God is. A monkey can do that. Back in Psalm 8, David said this
in Psalm 8, that David was a student of Lysard, and I don't mean a
domestic astronomer or a meteorologist. I mean he worshiped God through
considering The stars, Psalm 8, verses 3 and 4, when I consider
thy heavens, thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon
and the stars which thou hast ordained, I say, what is man? Men look at
the stars, unbelievers look at the stars and look around and
say, who is God? What is God? Fools say that. Believers look at the stars and
say, what is man? All right. Back in our text,
Psalm 19, he says, day and night, day and night, utter speech and
show us knowledge. Verse 3, there is no speech,
no language. That is, there's no tribe, kindred,
nation, tongue under heaven who does not hear this message. So they're all without excuse. There's no speech nor
language where this voice is not heard. Their voice is not
heard. Day and night, day and night, it speaks and shows all
mankind to the ends of the world. We have a Creator, a Sovereign,
an all-wise Sovereign, a Ruler, a God. Now again, Paul, he sat
in Romans 10. In Romans 10, verse 18, Paul
says this, Had they not all heard? Yea, verily, their sound went
into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
They all heard. Paul addressed many literally
heathen peoples. Yes, he did, out on Melita that
he was shipwrecked on, and other places, many heathen places to
be addressed from. And all men, he left them without
excuse to worship one God, day and night, day and night. Let
me show you some, let me, listen to some of the daytime speech.
I don't know, speech in the daytime, what the day says to it, daytime. Go outside now. We need to be
students of God's creation, and we do. Turn that dad-gone TV
and computer off and go outside and listen to what God's world
is telling us. I can really get worked up over
that. That's a scourge, this planet. Everything that hath breath outside
is telling us, Behold your God. Everything that hath breath is
telling us, Behold thy Maker. Thy Maker. Turn over to Job,
the book of Job, chapter 36. The book of Job, chapter 36.
Everything. The Old Year Maker, Job 36, look
at this, verse 26, you have it? Job 36, 26, right before the
book of Psalms, the book of Job. Now, this is one of, if not the
oldest recorded book in Scripture. Behold, God is great, and we
know Him not. Neither can the number of His
years be searched out. Verse 27, He maketh small the
drops of water, and they pour down rain according to the vapor
thereof. Now, Job is a scissor of the
firmament and the heavens. Job is telling us about it. Read
on. Clouds, Elijah is the one speaking. Clouds, verse 28, the
dew dropped and distilled upon a man abundantly. Clouds, that's
amazing, isn't it? If you've written in an airplane,
that's the most amazing thing. That's so amazing. What do you
think of when you see a cloud? You've got to think of one verse
or three. Clouds are the dust of His favor. Or, two verses. He cometh. Lo, He cometh with
clouds. He cometh with clouds. Clouds are amazing. It looks
like you can go out and fly off of there. Flying through there.
It looks like you can just, like a big ball of concrete. It's
amazing. There's nothing in it. There's
nothing in it. It's just vapor. But God condenses them together
and brings them together and causes them to flourish. God has it right in
that book. Amazing. Well, look at verse 29. Can anybody
understand the spreading of the clouds? Can you not understand
that? Look at chapter 37, verse 1. Verse two, hear attentively,
attentively, the noise of his voice. You need to listen attentively.
Go outside, you're in another room, and listen to God's voice. That's what I like you saying,
attentively. Listen to it. The sound that
goes out of his mouth. He directs it under the whole
heaven, his lightning under the ends of the earth. After it,
a voice roared out, the lightning, who was sitting by the cabin,
you and I sitting on my porch, remember? And we saw lightning. And about five or ten seconds
later, you know how far off that lightning
was. You know how sound, how fast it travels? Light's faster
than sound. That was way long before we saw
him. That was amazing. What an amazing day that we saw
the voice of His Excellency, verse 4. A voice after the lightning,
a voice of the Lord. He thundereth with the voice
of His Excellency. He will not stay there when his
voice is heard. God thundereth marvelously with
his Lord, great things do of thee which we cannot comprehend."
What's he saying when it's done? What's he saying? We know what
he's saying. Paul heard it on that road to
Damascus, didn't he? This is my beloved son. The other
people just heard it done. Paul said, I heard God say this.
He said, this is my beloved son. When Christ said, Father, glorify
thy name. He said, I glorify it, spoke
glorify it, and I glorify it again. And some say it thunders. But the Son of God heard what
God said, and so should we. Every time it thunders, man,
I want you to think of that. God said, this is my Son. God
says, I glorify thy name, and I'm going to keep glorifying
it. That's what the thunder says. It speaks to us. He says, verse
6, to the snow, be thou on earth, likewise to the small rain. We're
all guilty of this. It's rain. It's not just rain. God said,
be thou on earth. God sends the rain. God sends
the snow. Verse 9, look at this. Out of
the south come up the whirlwind, and cold melt the snow. I get
such a kick out of meteorologists. I get such a kick out of those
guys. Trying to predict when. About like the Pentecostal preachers
on it. Trying to predict when. They
don't have a clue. They just don't have a clue. Verse 15. Just how about when
God disposed of them and caused the light of His clouds to shine?
Huh? You know, the bouncing of the clouds? Verse 22. Weather comes out of the north.
Bare weather comes out of the north with God's terrible majesty. Touch Him, the Almighty, we cannot
find Him. You cannot find Him out. He's
excellence in power, and in judgment, plenty of justice. He will not
afflict. Heaven's declaration. Let's go
over to Proverbs 30. Proverbs 30 with me. This is
wonderful. Proverbs 30. This is glory. Solomon
was a student of God's creation. Solomon wrote, under a pseudonym. In Psalm 30, Solomon wrote under
a pseudonym, under a name of Edgar, the son of Jacob. Well,
that's Solomon. Chapter 31, King Lehu. Who's that? That's Solomon. He
just doesn't want to take credit for it. That's good. The best
things that have ever been written are anonymous. Well, in Proverbs 30, look at
verse 19. Solomon says there are three
things that are wonderful, or which I know not. Verse 19, he
says, That's the only thing worth watching
on television, that learning channel sometimes, or nature
and the planet. You know, I kind of like that
alligator fella. But, uh, anyway. Uh, where was I? Oh, I saw Special
Equals. That bird. That thing's amazing. I saw one in person down in Mexico
at the zoo. It had about eight foot wings. What was first, the way of the
eagle and the air of the swan, lived, they were, generations
together. And she ate a mouse in the grass,
and died. how many miles per hour, and
not hit the ground. He got up and broke his neck. The fool said, now he stood one
creature in all of God's creation. There you go, waving his sword
at him. You and I, we watched the snow
crows. I love those black crows. I love
those birds. Some windy day, they're just
up there. He loves to do that. He loves to do that. Just hang
there. They're not doing anything. They're
not going anywhere. Oh, this breeze feels good. This little crow will teach you
something. Eagle in the air. Next thing, and he goes all the
way down as low as you can get. That's as high as you can get
an eagle. Consider that amazing creature. Verse 19, the way of
the serpent on the rock. How do the snakes move? Well,
somebody tell me. They don't have any legs. Some
of them run faster than you can. Oh, yes, they can. How do they
do that? I saw one. Well, I promptly didn't
tell you this yet, did I? It's heavy, right? No, I'm joking. It's big, though. I was on a tractor. I'm glad
I was on a tractor. It was big, man. Man, he was
dark. He was a heavy man. He had heavy legs. That's what
Solomon said, you know, it's amazing, it's a wonderful man.
From the highest to the lowest. Look at verse 25. Verse 24, said,
Four things that live on the earth, but all their seeding
lies. Verse 25, ants. An ant will tell
you, God is. smallest, most microscopic creature
on the planet. I'll tell you, God is. How many
times their weight can they carry? Somebody know that? A hundred
times their body weight they can carry. It's a lot. Ten times. Let's say it's just
ten times. That means I, the military president, must have 1,500 pounds. 1,500 pounds. That's the way I carried
it. Every day. All day. All day, baby. Carried it. Tons. Proportional. They feel. They have legs. You ever seen that on legs? Legs. Fool would say
this milk cow. And yet they prepare their meat,
and some of them work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, don't have any children, but they work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work,
work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work How did they get around those
dogs? We make repelling gear. They
don't. What are they eating? Where did they get the food? Doctors. Amazing. They don't have toes. They don't
have Nike. Rubbers on shoes. But they don't
shit. They don't fart. Read on the next time. Verse
20 says, Locusts have no king, no leader, yet they go forth,
all of them, by man, that is, swarms of insects. They don't
know anything. They don't know anything. I know
you've seen these plots of birds flying. Somebody, they like,
and they're in tandem, don't they? They never have, you'd
think you'd see birds flying around everywhere with them,
but they're not. They would. What if we'd all run to the big
marathon, and all of a sudden somebody decided to turn red?
We'd all go back, or we'd all fall on the ground trying to
make it. They don't have a leader. From the insect to the swarms
of birds, if they're just in perfect tandem. Why do these
flies leave? Why do they do that? I've got no king to take over
the land. Verse 28, the spider takes hold
of their hands, and then the king passes. The spider will. I know you've seen them. We have
this spider on our front porch that makes this funnel web. It's
round like a funnel now. And it shrugs. It's unbelievable. Amazing. There's been a whole
combo of spider webs now that you run your face into them.
Look at those. Those are, even those are the
most intricate patterns. Aren't they beautiful? They're
about to shrink up. The strength of it is amazing,
amazing. O Lord my God, when I in awesome
wonder consider all the worlds Thy hands have made, I see the
stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy power throughout the universe
displayed. When through the woods And forest
glades I wander and hear the birds sing sweetly in the tree. You listen to the birds? Go out.
No bird has the same sound. No bird has the same song. There's
so many birds that I love. I love their voices. I love them.
I'm beginning to be able to distinguish various ones. I like to have
a chick that's one of my favorites. What are they saying? I don't
know what they're saying. Sing to God. Sing to one another. Nobody has it tougher than they
do. They get to sing it. Here the birds sing sweetly in
the trees when I look down from lofty mountain ranches. You've
been on top of it. What's the creek saying? The
old Pig River even is telling us. God is giving glory. Hear the brook and feel the gentle
breeze, the wind blowing. Then sing, my soul, my Savior,
God to Thee, how great Thou art. That's a good song, isn't it?
A good song. Listen to the birds, the trees,
the wind, from day unto day others speak. Nighttime. All right,
nighttime. Nighttime features a snarling.
There's not much sound at night. Everything's quiet. We need to learn from that. We can't learn from it. You can't
hear based on my hearing. It's nighttime. Well, there's
noise. There is noise. Katie did some
flip-a-reels and all of that, but mostly silence. Birds and
so forth, everything's resting. Nighttime speech. Could, let
me ask you something, could a thinking, any thinking, rational human
being sit out under that vast expanse of stars? Some of those,
these beautiful Virginia nights, you know, where it's just all,
the sky's all black and the stars are just like the sand in the
sea. Could any thinking, Could any
thinking, rational human being possibly say that there's no
God? Look at that. How could anyone? Only an utter fool. You need
to do that. We need to do that. It might
be your favorite pastime if you learn to do it. Oh my, if he'd
seen anything else he'd be holding and watching. What's this teaching
us, I guess? Look at the, look at the, look
how even, look how vast, look how marvelous, wonderful. Every
now and then you see a shooting star. Amazing. And it's so mysterious, you know,
how long does it go? The heavens, how far does it go? In the night, it does. What's it say, sir? Knowledge.
How can anything be infinite? Unless you have a Creator, a
God. Unless God is infinite. It's teaching us knowledge. It's
teaching us you can't figure it out, can you? That's what
it's teaching you. Try to be light. Get to the biggest
telescope you can. You can't figure it out. What's
that going to tell you? God is. Loud and clear. All right. Day and night of our
speech. But especially that, this is the one thing that speaks
louder and teaches us more than anything in all the heavens,
in all time. One thing stands above all others. One thing speaks louder than
all other things. One thing teaches us more knowledge
than anything else in all of God's creation. Look at verse four. Their line
has gone out, the rule that is, day and night, throughout all
the earth, the worst, the end of the world, and in them, in
the heavens, and in the firmament, he hath set a tabernacle for
the sun. A dwelling place, as if the sun
is the center of it all. See? As if it all depends upon
the sun. It does. It does. Well, look at this description
of the sun it gives. Verse 5, it's as a bridegroom
coming out of his chamber. Now why would they give, talk
about this big burning ball as a bridegroom? Unless it's teaching us something
more than about solar power. He's teaching us about the power
of God, Christ, the power of God, the Son of God, who is as
a by-groom, truly, to his church. He came forth as a by-groom to
his church, looking for his bride, coming out of his chamber, his
secret chamber. Rejoice, verse 5, as a strong
man to run a race. Strong man. Why does he call
him a strong man? That sun, and I didn't write
it down. I had it in my other notes. I
wish I had looked at it. I forget how big the sun is.
And somebody tell me off the top of your brilliant mind. Anyway, anyway. You can't believe how many earths
would fit in a circle that comes to the sun. You can't believe
the size of the sun compared to the earth. It's astronomical,
the size of it. How far is it from the earth? Somebody knows that. 99 million
miles a day? Come on, Ron. If you go to school,
where do you go to school? Kentucky? How many miles is it? It's a lunch. Oh, we feel the heat from it,
don't we? The sun is such a wondrous and
glorious thing, a life-sustaining thing. The sun, Brother John
and I were talking the other day. The sun, through God's purpose,
God hung that big ball of hydrogen, burning hydrogen in the skies,
to sustain life. If the sun, the very, well, split
second, the sun ceases, all life ends. You know? Oh yeah. You go out in outer
space, out of that sperm, if you take off your atmospheric
suit, pressure, how many degrees below zero is it? Your blood needs freezing. Without a sun, nobody can exist
for a second. What does that say? What does
that teach us? Christ said in his high priestly
prayers, I will give him power over all flesh. In him we live
and move and have our being. The Son, by sustaining the Son,
And you've heard this before, but the sun is so strategically
placed in the sky, and the earth from it, exactly the distance
necessary to sustain life on this planet, exactly. If it moves,
if the sun moves toward us or the earth toward the sun, just
a fraction, just a few inches, we'll either burn up or move
away from it, three steps. And you know how fast it's traveling.
You know how fast the Earth is traveling around the Sun? You
know how fast the Earth is spinning? Just two inches, Carl! It's gone. We're gone. What's that tell us? Only the
truth. Not utter ignorance. You see, this is why you have
to be willing. This is why you have to make
your self-belief evolution. You have to make your self-belief.
It takes more faith than evolution. Creation. Creation's as plain as silver,
but it's the nose on your face. Look at this frame. What's the
page next, for example? Here's a good example. Now, ears.
David said, He, after he studied the stars,
he looked at himself. He said, I'm fearful. That's
Psalm 139. Remember that? He said, I'm fearful. It wasn't made. There's nothing
in God's planet. As a matter of fact, after God
created everything, and it's marvelous as it is, all creatures
and plants and animals and so forth. He made man. He said,
after he made man, he said, this is very good. The image of God. Man, there's nothing like that
kind of man. And what they must look like. Oh, there's never been. Take
all the so-called beautiful people. They look like, at least this
people. Put them next to Eve, or skin
the weaklings next to Adam. The other group. God created
the perfect man. The perfect woman. Oh, what they
must have looked like. Huh? Brilliant, my. Brilliant. God created all the animals and
thought I had a name on them. Brilliant. Brilliant. He could name all the plants.
Every species, every genus, every... He could. We ain't smart today. We're dumber now, here in Eden.
We don't even know it. We don't even believe it. Well, the sun radiates. Think about this concerning the
sun. I'll quit. The sun, we get these things
from the sun. Think. Have you ever thought
about it? The sun, we get warmth from the sun. We get warmth from
the sun. It can be a cold day. in the middle of the winter.
But yet, if the sky is clear, you're outside, and that sun
is shining bright enough, boy, it's just as warm. That's skiing
out west in Colorado, and I'll have a t-shirt top, and a nose
anywhere, if the sun is shining bright enough. Because it's warm. It radiates warmth. Peace. You know, if there's nothing, It gives a certain amount of
peace and joy, health. Literally, vitamin C comes from
it. It radiates health, and what
a picture this is, it's priceless. If you hide the sun, you hide
the sun, tell me if it's not so with you, that sometimes despondency
comes over you. You can't put a finger on it.
A cold, dreary day, the sun's not out. Say the sun isn't. Well,
the sun is always shining. Let that be another lesson. It's
not like that the sun's not out. Oh, yes it is. We'd be dead if
it wasn't. The sun came up. It's lit up. You just came around. The sun
is right where it is. It hasn't moved. We just came
around. We just had our backs turned,
and we come around to see him. He hasn't come up. He's standing
right where he is. If that is a picture of Christ,
he'd tell me. He's right where he is. Well, but isn't it so that a
few days of fun, we don't see it, or clouds or whatever. Gloom comes over you. Boy, it is somewhat melancholy. Certainly get cold. Some sandwiches
creeps over you, and so forth. But boy, it's just... Sun comes... I have to do this every now and
then. I'm sitting in my study, and it's a sunny day, and I just
have to get up and go outside. I feel better immediately. Well... Now, the Son of Righteousness
says He lived in His womb. Yeah, He does. Christ, the Church's
backroom, that strong man, the Son of God, who came, who lived,
who died, who arose, who now reigns and rules, it says here
in our text, His going forth is from the end of the earth,
verse 6, end of heaven, His circuit on the ends of it. There's nothing
here from beneath thereof. There's nothing you don't love
that's not under the rule of, the direction of, the reign of,

starts out by saying, it's perfect. The law of the Lord is perfect. You needn't study the

You've done all things well. Thank you for your marvelous
creation. Thank you for arresting our attention
with your Word, your written Word. showing us clearly what
this is all about, everything You've created, all the work,
our work created for Thy glory, the glory of Thy Son. And it is for Your glory and
honor in the name of Your Son that we've met here tonight. Amen.
