“O taste and see that the LORD is good…
He left not Himself without witness,
in that He did good,
and gave us rain from heaven,
and fruitful seasons,
filling our hearts with food and gladness.”
Psalm 34:8 & Acts 14:17
.
.
.
.
.
There is no excuse for anyone who disbelieves in God!
.
Nature has its witnesses, who stand up and speak eloquently on the Creator’s behalf!

“AND GOD SAW EVERY THING THAT HE MADE, AND BEHOLD, IT WAS VERY GOOD!”
Genesis 1:31
.
Just look at the beauty of nature!
.
Behold nature’s awesome grandeur!
.
And seek after its wisdom!
Its poetry!
Its law & order!
Its love!
It’s joy!
.
Look up, and behold the signs written in the sun, moon and stars! (see Luke 21:25)
.
These are the faithful witnesses found throughout nature, which proclaim their Divine Maker!

“MY HEART SHALL REJOICE, EVEN MINE!”
Proverbs 23:15
.
But today’s devotional has discovered one more faithful witness found in nature!
.
And just what could that witness be?
.
Health!
.
Yes, nature promotes health!
.
Nature is literally teeming with healthy pursuits!

“And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good!”
Genesis 1:31
.
You see, the Bible informs us that this world was originally created to be all good! And all healthy!
.
Yes, the world was originally created to provide both man and animals with health and happiness.
Death was nowhere to be found!
.
And in that garden, mankind was given a diet and lifestyle, if continued, would have resulted in mankind’s eternal health and happiness!

PLANET EARTH BECAME LUCIFER’S WORLD
.
And this rebellion eventually found its way down to the fledgling planet, Planet Earth.
.
And all Lucifer needed to do was to convince Earth’s two occupants to go beyond the one and only rule that God had laid down.
.
We were to NOT eat of the fruit of that one forbidden tree: “The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil”. Genesis 2:9, 17

.
REBELLION BROUGHT DISEASE AND DESTRUCTION!
.
And so, the rest is history.
Lucifer and his fellow angels now became the unseen rulers of this fallen world.
.
And mankind continued to go beyond that healthful lifestyle provided for them in the Garden.
.
And needless to say, mankind has suffered the dreadful results of our disobedience. Haven’t we?
.
.
.
.
.
.
“COME UNTO ME ALL YE THAT…ARE HEAVY BURDENED!”
Matthew 11:28
.
The Good News is, that mankind, in these last moments of time, is finally figuring out that nature’s laws, if obeyed, will bring increased health and happiness.
.
Oh no, it’s too late to completely reverse the results of our disobedience. Death will finally overtake us!
.
But by the power of the Cross of Christ, we can live forever…free from all disease!
.
.
.
.
.
.
“THEY SHALL BEHOLD THE LAND THAT IS VERY FAR OFF!”
Isaiah 33:17
.
And for all those who do take hold of the Way, Life, and Truth, they will eventually enter into the everlasting Promised Land in which disobedience will not even be an option!
.
After all, they will have finally and forever learned from experience that selfishness and disobedience only lead to disease and sorrow and ultimately to death!
.
Yes, one day soon, those who are wise will cross that dark river, only to enter into the Promised Land in which joy and peace and brotherly kindness will be unmarred by sin and sorrow!
.
And they will be forever happy!
And forever healthy!
And forever young!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

.
HEAVENLY OBJECT LESSON
.
“Then the moon shall be confounded,
and the sun ashamed,
when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion,
and in Jerusalem,
and before his ancients gloriously.”
Isaiah 24:23
.
When God created the Moon and the stars, He ordained them to “rule the night” (Gen. 1:16). The Moon, especially when it is full, can light your pathway through the night, as it reflects the light of the Sun.
.
So too, the Christian is to be a light to the world: to this sin-darkened world. But as the Moon must reflect the light of the Sun, in order to be a light to the world, so also must the Christian reflect the light of Jesus, to be a spiritual light to this planet in rebellion. Listen…
.
“Ye are the light of the world…
Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
Matthew 5:14-16
.
However, during an eclipse, the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, preventing that sunlight from shining on the Moon’s face. This is an incredible object-lesson about when the child of God allows the world to come between him and his Lord. Like the eclipse, that person no longer reflects the light of Jesus, because his or her love of this dark world of sin has eclipsed the light from the “Sun of Righteousness” (see Malachi 4:2).
.
And so, this is just one of the many poetic truths seen in the Moon. (For more on this subject of an eclipse, you may link to the article… “Lunar Eclipse & Spiritual Eclipse”)
