The heavens proclaim the glory of God.
2 Day after day they continue to speak;
night after night they make him known.
3 They speak without a sound or word;
their voice is never heard.[a]
4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,
and their words to all the world.
~ Psalm 19:1-4
I am OBSESSED with the universe because Abraham is my father!! If this intrigues you, read on. If you question my sanity as a “Jesus follower,” read on. In other words, if you have a LARGE MIND, read on!
“Then the LORD took Abram outside and said to him, ‘Look up into the sky and count the stars if you can. That’s how many descendants you will have!'” ~ Genesis 15:5, NLT
If you are still reading this, you are one of the brave believers, with whom I cherish connection! You might be…a fellow follower! It was GOD who INSTRUCTED Abram (Abraham) to look to the universe. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob calls us today!
I will cause your descendants to become as numerous as the stars of the sky, and I will give them all these lands. And through your descendants, all the nations of the earth will be blessed. ~ Genesis 26:4, NLT

It is this simple today. As with Abraham, God makes promises to us. This incomprehensible God of the Universe has a “ton” of promises for all followers. Believing happens when we recognize that the Eternal cannot be predicted. Look at that sky! Abraham had his moments – Sarah laughed at the promises (Gen. 18:12ff), but that which they would have never predicted manifested in their lives!
Need more references…hold on…
Look up into the sky and see the clouds high above you... ~Job 35:5, NLT
Take the Scripture with you and meditate – I dare you! Your concept of God will enlarge exponentially!
Look up into the heavens.
Who created all the stars?
He brings them out like an army, one after another,
calling each by its name.
Because of his great power and incomparable strength,
not a single one is missing. ~ Isaiah 40:26
LASTLY, but not everything folks – I will be adding more blogs on this subject from time to time…I am obsessed with looking upward to see the universe above me. I AM a child of Abraham and an heir according to the promise!
7 The real children of Abraham, then, are those who put their faith in God.8 What’s more, the Scriptures looked forward to this time when God would make the Gentiles [nations] right in his sight because of their faith. God proclaimed this good news to Abraham long ago when he said, “All nations will be blessed through you.”
9 So all who put their faith in Christ share the same blessing Abraham received because of his faith. ~Galations 6:7-9
