Daily Devotions:
by Christina Farris

Romans 1:17-32 KJV
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

The existence of God has to be taken by faith and it is past on by faith. The evidence of God is clearly seen, yet we must define that evidence as things that can not be reproduce by man. There many synthetics of our day, but nothing that compare to God original plan in the since of originality. There are many things made by man that is not seen in the natural world, such as a skate board, boat, car, and so forth. Yet they are all synthetic in design. When the wheel was evented man must of though look here I did it, I created something new under the sun, only to have a boulder come crashing down on his head, and say you want round wheels here you go and what about a simple sand dollar as far as disc object. How many of these were picked up and then rolled across the ground, before man realize he could put a stick between two of them and make a toy cart. Any model can be reproduced into something bigger if you can figure out how to to atttach things. So two rocks were taken only to ask how flat is it on that one side of the rim.

The next wheel would of been seeing a tree trunk laying down and saying if I could cut this into smaller sections and use it for a wheel, only to discover the wheels are still uneven. Then the creation of a chisels to take off the excess wood. The skill of shaping it to desire circle and not always even but close would make it to hold larger object. The kid playing with the disc, only to discover something more useful could be created over time and yet already created by God. Example modern day robotic are designing humaniods to look like animals, and people. The design is there, and I don't doubt maybe even used today if nothing but a lab. What is the point. The design of the human robot taken from our arms, legs and structural skeleton system to move and to bend in human like fashion. Can we create better then the original human being in design, some continue to play with the thought, but in reality our ideas all come from something producable by some godly design. An engine alone with cylinders imitate the bodies heart, and veins function. We can not get away from God's design.

From the foundation of the world God creation started molding things we make and create. We see the ability to pick up things with our fingers and some people's are able to pick things up with their toes. Then two sticks are put together to pick up and move objects with say a chop stick, and then a pair of tongs for easier control. Our own human body a testimony to God's design. Those with disfigurations don't dismiss what did these changes in the body teach man about the inability for man to come up with a different way of doing something since the dawn of time. The problem is most people have not the time to dwell on these things, because of the fast pace world we live in even more so today. How many news articles can you read a day only to realize you can not control how much of it you can retain in your mind of what you read or even hear today.

I was typing into my computer the other day and thinking how ingenius the technology is, and then I think of the nerves in the human brain are wired to do so many things. How long did it take science to figure one wire to one thing would send impulse to another. It took time, why because man had more work then they had time to think. If we went back to the stone age, how many old toys would be formed quickly to entertain a child. Man does want to take credit for many things only to discover God already did that. The stones at the little creek down by cave village soon discovered they could make a statue an bow to it teaching their children their laws and ideology, leaving God somewhere else but not in their village. Casting out God as God had cast out Cain and had even destroy the people of Noah day. With destruction of Noah Day things would be refound with digging and searching as water receded, yet the question is who had time. Archaleogist still are digging after tens of thousands of years.

God in his wisdom by his Spirit still talked to man when they would listen and obey him. Otherwise he turned the world over to their imagination, changing natural uses of God's creation for unnatural ones. Even to the point of homosexuality being the extreme from God's original design of man and woman. God created man and woman to be one and only have one spouse. Only for man to take many wives and women turning to there lust, of sin and men turning to their desires even more abounding.

God turned man over to sin, even to idolatry. yet there were some that still had faith in God of his ability to deliver them and to protect them, because they believed God had created them and the world in which they lived in. Why did God allow man to change his design of marriage, family, and anything else we see in the world. Think for a minute the engineering going on with our vegetables and plant life in our world today, to make stronger hybrids of products. However I am convinced my town gets bad hybrid seeds that do not reproduce, because I have had a bad garden for the last few times I have planted. God allows it to teach man of his original design as still best. We save the dying with new cures, we create bigger vegetables, only to discover God making bigger and happier insects. Yet the cure for the corrupt and mistake of man's design is still being search for instead of asking God to use his design to correct the error.

As people face the new flu and cold virus of our century we have to ask why the scare of this year cold. The vaccine not as wide spread for some strains of the mutated bug. Why do bugs mutate, simple because dna changes with environment. As things change in God's orignal plan man has to learn to adapt. God adapts to us as well, not to change himself, but to look deep within the human soul and recognize the condition of the heart and the need of Him still, despite the time we live in. The need of God never changes. We desire truth, wisdom, understanding and mostly love. People search for love in all the wrong places, never looking first to God and then to those around us. Some trading human love for animal love and companionship.

Faith itself is based on those things hoped for and evidence of things not seen, Yet the knowledge there is a God can be fully seen if we understand first the belief of a God, or superior being. Hebrews Timothy is looking at evidence of something that he knows exist because of creation. The evidence of the unseeable God. If we can understand our own ability to create we can understand there is a creator that created what is naturally made and not synethetic made by man. The Question is does God want a relationship with man? Does this super being desire to know man, beyond our understanding that he created. The answer is yes, and we will be exploring this the next two days maybe into the weekend.

Dear Heavenly Father, help us to understand the things that are made by you and changed by you over time, is also a change caused by original sin of man, and the continual sin of man. In Jesus precious name, Amen.

Continual Scripture Study for Devotion:

Hebrews 11:1-3 KJV
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
