How many stars are in the universe?? Astrologers and scientists have
been studying stars for hundreds of years and no one can agree on one answer.
As technology and exploration efforts improve, we discover new heights to the
heavens and the immeasurable expanse of the universe. Whether its a million, a
billion or 1000 trillion, we will never be able to count them all. Only the One
who created and placed the stars, the One who calls them by name, the One with
infinite wisdom, knows how many stars there are!!!
Psalm 147:4, 5 states , "He determines the number of the stars and calls
them each by name. Great is our Lord and MIGHTY in power; his understanding has
no limit."
I love being reminded of who I am in Christ. Have you ever read the book
of Job? Job pleaded with the Lord to respond to him and when the Lord does
respond, He speaks out of a raging, violent storm. In a magnificent display of
His power and wisdom, the Lord offers Job rhetorical questions that he can't
possibly answer. Here are a few from Job 37-38: " Where were you when I laid
the earths foundation? Who marked off its dimensions? Who shut up the sea behind
doors? And said 'This far you may come and no farther; here is where your proud
waves halt.' Have you ever given orders to the morning, or shown the dawn its
place? Have you entered the storehouses of the snow? Or seen the storehouses of
the hail? What is the way to the place where the lightening is dispersed? Or
the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?"
I am completely humbled by our Mighty God! All I can do is offer my
praise... A few years ago I heard a man telling a story of him praising God. He
was driving down a street and noticed that even the trees raise their branches
in praise. So next time you are traveling down a road and you see a starry
night, remember the marvelous works of His MIGHTY hands and Lift your hands in
Praise to the Lord.....
