God Brings Dry Land from the Waters and Creates Plants that can Reproduce.

God's "fingerprints" are on everything we see in the natural world around us.

Question:
God has woven hints and clues about His character and nature into all of creation. What does God's observable creation tell you about Him?

Prayer Focus:
The created world around us can become familiar. When was the last time you allowed yourself to get swept up in wonder over how plants grow or how the planets orbit the sun? Ask God to increase your curiosity and wonder.
Scripture


Genesis 1:9-13 New Living Translation
9 Then God said, “Let the waters beneath the sky flow together into one place, so dry ground may appear.” And that is what happened. 10 God called the dry ground “land” and the waters “seas.” And God saw that it was good. 11 Then God said, “Let the land sprout with vegetation—every sort of seed-bearing plant, and trees that grow seed-bearing fruit. These seeds will then produce the kinds of plants and trees from which they came.” And that is what happened. 12 The land produced vegetation—all sorts of seed-bearing plants, and trees with seed-bearing fruit. Their seeds produced plants and trees of the same kind. And God saw that it was good.
13 And evening passed and morning came, marking the third day.
