Genesis 2:7
Sermon: 1968 How to Function with Unction, Part 1
Pray Over This
“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.”
Genesis 2:7
Ponder This
Suppose you wanted to assemble a person by taking all the necessary elements and putting them together. What would you need? According to the reading that I’ve done, you’d need 58 pounds of oxygen; 50 quarts of water; two ounces of salt; three pounds of calcium; and 24 pounds of carbon. You would need some chlorine, some phosphate, some fat, some iron, some sulfur, and some glycerin. Let’s suppose you took all these things into your kitchen and said, “I’m going to build a man.” I don’t think you’d be very successful.
If you were to take just one square inch of skin, it would have some 19 million cells.1 Your body not only has all these cells, but your body also knows what each of the cells needs. These cells send out signals. And as the little truck in the bloodstream stops at each cell, it unloads the particular nutrients and chemicals needed for vitality and for life. God designed and formed every bit of you, down to the very detail of the cells in your body. Reflecting on the intricacy and brilliance of God’s creation should lead us to praise.
- How do we learn our purpose in life from thinking about God’s creation of us?
- How often do you remember that God is your maker? What difference should this make in daily life?
Practice This
Praise and worship God for the way He designed people so intricately and uniquely.
