Acts 17: 26
And He made from one [blood], every Nation of mankind to live on all the face of the Earth, having determined their appointed times, and the boundaries of their habitation.
God made from one couple every person in every Nation, all Mankind is of one "blood" which means we can all intermarry with one another and produce offspring. The different "races" are all environmental, and skin color is only superficial, only skin-deep. We are all the same in our innards.
We are all one Race, the Race of Mankind; we are male and female members of Mankind, made so, so we can propagate our Race on the Earth, and build our World upon it.
Even scientists who have no knowledge of God or His ways, have found that they can trace, through microscopic mitrocondrial studies, that every person alive is descended from one woman whom they call Eve. This is amazing.
And scientists have also found that the molecule Laminin, the "glue" that holds everything together, is in the form and shape of three strands twined together into a cross. The three Persons being One, the Cross for Christ, in Whom all things are "held together" (Colossians 1:17). God is amazing to put into what He has made the clues to Who He is and what He's done!
O my Father, thank You so much for Who You are, and for revealing Yourself to us that we may know You! Thank You for Your Word, for writing it down (words that stay [The Dark Crystal], they don't change) so we can know we have the Truth.
Thank You for Your Spirit of Truth to live in our own spirits, to give us Life, and teach us Your ways: to help us grow in discernment and understanding in studying Your Word; and our hearts grow in Your Love for us, in loving You, ourselves, and others as ourselves. And to understand how to love others with Your Love instead of our own, human passion.
Father, we tend to be so proud and rebellious, to think that we can figure it all out on our own and put it all together without You!
O my dear Father God, I pray for those scientists who are using the intelligence You gave them to find out Your secrets of how You put together all the material stuff in the Earth, and us, too. Please open their eyes to see that it is You Who have designed it all, and to come to know You as the Maker and Redeemer.
Grant them repentance, and Your gift of faith to believe You, as well as to believe in You. You are our Source, You are our Standard, You are our Life!
Father, please continue to prepare Your children, Your church, for the trials ahead, and continue to send out workers into Your fields, white to harvest. Father, allow me to go as Your worker, to help find some of Your lost sheep, to draw them to Yourself and gather them into that One Fold with One Shepherd.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
