I love skyscrapers and a big fan of them. Hanging out in New York city and downtown Manhattan several times was always a big treat for me. Here in Los Angeles we don't have as many tall skyscrapers but we do have a super tall being built right now to add to our wonderful skyline. Looking at the tall buildings in New York and the renderings of the new super tall for Los Angeles I can't help but to say WOW how do they build these super tall buildings?? There are many details and designs that go into planning and building. If you're a regular person like me then trying to figure it all out will get you dizzy.
All of these inventions from computer chips, airplanes, cars, hybrid and electric vehicles, and tall skyscrapers is just amazing. How are man able to create such things with great detail? And the answer is GOD!!! God is the superpower, the intelligent designer behind it all. He created man in his own image after the likeness of God.
Genesis 1:27
27 And God made man in His own likeness. In the likeness of God He made him. He made both male and female.
We all should know Genesis 1 by now that God created the heavens and the earth, separated the land and the waters with giving this world shape and light.
Clearly God is the main brain behind it all. He created us like him with giving us the knowledge to be able to build and design. You have to really stop and think and realize that there is a master planner. If you ever watch the discovery and nature channels showing inside the oceans of the world, you would be amazed at the many creatures in the sea. There are fish down there that many don't even realize exists. One of my favorite designs by God the "intelligent designer" is the transparent fish that lights up in different colors with great detail. This fish looks like something that belongs in heaven! It is so unique that no man can duplicate it. Looking at all the animals and the birds of the air you have to know that there is a brain behind it. All of these creations just didn't happen by accident. We tend to listen to scientist with many different explanations but seeing how they are human with a brain, they are not always right. Any way you explain it, just know that the bottom line is that it is all designed and created by God. If people think that our brains just came out of thin air, then they are sadly mistaken.
We are sitting on this great planet earth with the oceans, land, people, and animals with God being the supernatural creator and multi intelligent designer. He designs with intricate detail! Let's take the earth for example which God set it up to spin not only on its own axis but also to rotate around the sun so that we can have different seasons and time. He also placed the earth in just the perfect spot hanging in the heavens positioned in between other planets and a certain distance from the sun to where the earth would be livable. If you tried to live on other planets it just wouldn't work because of the temperatures and climate. God made the earth's atmosphere in such a way that it would allow our bodies to breathe. Man is trying to make a way for us to be able to live on the moon or mars but God did not intend for that to happen.
Let's look at human life. One of the things that I think is so amazing is that women can carry life inside of their bodies. Human life is awesome! It starts off with a zygote which forms into a embryo turning into a fetus which results to a beautiful infant. Just for all of the people that believe in abortions (killing babies) thinking that those babies are not actual people until they come out of the womb is false!
Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Who else can create human life?? Only GOD CAN! God designed and created our bodies in such a unique way that we can't duplicate. With intricate detail he set up our respiratory system, skeletal system, muscular system, endocrine system, lymphatic system, digestive system, integumentary system, urinary system, and more which all play specific functions within our bodies. Everything from our eye lashes to our fingernails all serves a purpose. Often times people act as if they are smarter than God but if that were the case then they would of created the heavens and the earth. God even knows the very number of hair on our head!
Luke 12:7 NIV
Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
God gave us the brain and knowledge to design and create and let's not forget that he created us in his likeness. God knew that man was going to design and build cars and knew we were going to name it car. Let's look at what the Word of God says about cars.
Nahum 2:3-4
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
God also knew before man did that we were going to build airplanes. Many people don't know this including Christians. Again let's refer to the Word of God:
Isaiah 31:5
Like birds flying about,
So will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem.
Defending, He will also deliver it;
Passing over, He will preserve it.”
We are now in the age of high tech with new gadgets being made like the smart phones where you can manipulate it without touching it. Technology where you have your eyes and fingertips scanned through computers for identity purposes. Man is right for the fact that they believe there is another earth like planet out there. It is heaven. When God created the earth he also made it in the likeness of heaven. We are patterned after heaven. We don't think about the fact that we get our technology inspirations from heaven because heaven is already far advanced than we are. Here in a world where our knowledge is being increased.
Daniel 12:4
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
How can we look at all of these things without realizing that it really is not us? We see it all around us the increasing technology with creation being much greater. We are always looking for answers to how things were created but so often we are looking in all the wrong places! Many can't wrap their head around the fact that God is the only source and provider with being the SUPERNATURAL INTELLIGENT DESIGNER - A SUPERPOWER.
