God’s wonders - All The Good Seed Daily Devotionals for 2025

God ... does great things and unsearchalbe, marvellous things without number.
Job 5:9.

God's wonders
If we look through a telescope or a microscope, we discover in wonderment the extraordinary work of the great architect of the universe: God. Here are three examples:

The temperature. At the centre of the sun it is 15 million degrees centigrade (27 million °F), and we are about 90 million miles away from it, just the right distance for the earth's temperature to be suitable for life. Why wasn't the earth placed twice as far away or even nearer? Was it chance or intention?
The earth's orbit. The earth revolves annually 365 times, orbiting the sun once. If the earth revolved only 36 times each year, our days and nights would be ten times longer, and it would be terribly hot on one side and terribly cold on the other. Life, as we know it, would be destroyed. Was that chance or intention?
The air. The proportion of oxygen in the atmosphere is 21 %, the right measure. If it were 50 %, the slightest spark would cause a vast conflagration in a few seconds. Was that chance or intention?
Consider the evidence: there must be a Creator! Through His creation we perceive His intelligence and power. But through the gift of His Son, who laid down His life on a cross to save us, He reveals His love (John 3:16). You can come to know this great Creator-God through Jesus Christ, our Savior, and receive eternal life.
