God Needs No Consultancy




The sovereignty of God

It is a biblical fact
God needs no consultancy,
No man or establishment
With whom to agree.

He is no man’s debtor,
Cannot be hung out to dry,
He, in fact, is the Creator
No matter how some deny.

There is a fallacy
That is making the rounds
That God needs permission
To work in this earth’s bounds.

It’s from the pit of hell,
Can’t be from anywhere else,
If you are thinking so
It’s time you check yourself.

Psalm 115:3 Our God is in the Heavens; He does all that He pleases ...

Or better still,
Let God check you out,
His omnipotence and omniscience
Is without doubt.

When He said,
“Let us make man,”
It was not a consultation,
It was already a plan.

Conceptualized before
Earth’s foundations were laid,
The Trinity was in agreement
Before anything was made.

It was not a consultation,
Not even a discussion,
No memorandum or referendum
But a Trinity decision.


They did not talk it over
It was nothing like that,
God simply said, “Let Us.”
And the rest is fact.
 
Psalm 115:3 Our God is in the Heavens; He does all that He pleases ...

I am sorry for those people
That feel they can wag God,
I would like to tell them
They are wagged by the Fraud.

Satan, the knave,
Has them believing this,
They are not on target
Theirs is a colossal miss.

Job 38 and 39

They should consult with Job
Via the book so named,
In every question God posed
Job failed again and again.

He didn’t ace his examination
More like he zeroed it,
Zilch was his score line,
It had become his habit.

He couldn’t answer a single question
That the Creator God had posed,
He didn’t have what it took
That’s what Job, himself, diagnosed.

We had better come to that conclusion
Before it is too late,
Many so-called intellectuals
Are at standing at hell’s gate.
  
The fear of the Lord
Is the beginning of wisdom
Even some attending church
Are lost and undone.

Whether they know this or not
It is not me to tell,
If they heed the Spirit’s counsel
I know they would do well.

God needs no consultancy
In this earth realm,
The earth is His footstool
His creation He transcends.
 
Psalm 115:3 Our God is in the Heavens; He does all that He pleases ...

God does as He pleases
He has infinite insight,
A word to you intellectuals,
You are not that bright.

It’s time to admit,
Whether scientist or philosopher,
We are His creatures
God is the Creator.

Thus, He needs no consultancy
This is demonstratively so,
Don’t you think, that like me
It is also time you know?

Scientific Proof of God’s Existence

Many intellectuals are of the opinion
That there is no scholarship in creationism,
It is full of lies, myths and mystery
And ultimately lacks scientific integrity.

The Bible on which this premise is built
Has oft been ridiculed up to the hilt
Thereby rendering it unbelievable
To scientists, astronomers and other people.

During the nineteenth century and before
It was the belief of most scientists for sure
That the universe did not have a beginning
But after that scientific minds were set a spinning.


Given the advent of greater visibility,
The compliments of sophisticated technology,
Telescopic reach extended far into space
Revealing evidence that before was untraced.

For these scientists nothing could be worse
Than the evidence for an expanding universe,
There were galaxies beyond our own Milky Way,
So many galaxies that none of them could say.

Before they were numbered in the millions
But now they even surpassed the billions,
Clearly the universe had a beginning at a point in time
Today that is what all the scientists opine.

Someone greater than science started it all
And now many scientists are supporting this call,
The Bible points to the God of eternity
And posits that He created matter, space and energy.

Three amazing discoveries all point to God
Straight up and simple like three peas in a pod,
Marvel of marvels, they were there all the time
But scientists didn’t want to have God on their mind.

The universe had a beginning quite definitely
Unlike God it’s not from eternity to eternity,
Everything in the universe came out of nothing,
The evidence shows a divine will created everything.
  
God created the heavens and the earth
Outside of Him nothing has any value or worth,
The astronomical evidence points to the biblical view
And scientific advances are showing this to be true.

Scientists who scoffed at the Bible’s account
Are gradually descending from their lofty mount
In humble acknowledgement of a grand design
And that the designer is God, some are inclined.

A cosmic explosion could not have caused life
Anymore than love and peace could cause war and strife,
God is the Author of all that we see
He is the Super-intellect that caused it all to be.

A cosmic explosion would only cause strife
But the universe is finely tuned for life,
Scientists who believe in God may have expected this
But atheists and agnostics, God they have dissed.

The fine-tuning for them would be remarkable
But they would not see this as a miracle
Straight out of the mind of a Grand Designer
Whom we refer to as the Creator.

Some believe it could have happened by chance
And go to great limits their theories to advance,
But such is winning a mega-million lottery on a single ticket
And doing so over a thousand consecutive times as a habit.

Fine-tuning as it relates to life on this earth
Is necessary for all living cells and natural birth,
Hence DNA the language of life is next on the list
Of evidence for God that we should not resist.

As vast and numberless as the stars in space
So is the DNA molecule with its wonders laced,
Baffling the minds of the micro-biologists
And adding to the amazement of the world’s scientists.

DNA coding reveals such intelligence
That it staggers the imagination of those studying science,
It is a molecule that contains immense information
With an extremely complex software code for its operation.

There are religious implications but scientists shy away
Proffering unscientific explanations during their say,
Acknowledging there is a compelling case for a Creator
But unwilling to acknowledge God as the Supreme Designer.

One renowned astronomer with no Christian agenda
Posits “shock and despair” as some scientists’ dilemma
Who thought they had squeezed God out of their world
Only to find evidence that causes them to be more disturbed.

For the scientist who has lived by the power of reason
The story ends like a very bad dream
For as he reaches up to conquer the highest peak
He is greeted by theologians who’ve been long at this scene.

So if there is a Creator what is he like?
Is he some cosmic force or a personal being like us?
There is compelling evidence for a personal God
And he walked this earth without the royal fuss.

Two thousand years ago he came to this earth
In the city of Bethlehem born of lowly birth,
His name was Jesus and he was the Christ
That came to this earth to pay sin’s price.

Compare to many his sojourn was a pause
But he displayed creative powers over nature’s laws,
He healed the blind, the deaf and the lame
And for the paralytic and demonic he did the same.

He stopped raging storms instantly
And turn water into wine at a wedding,
He created food for the hungry right on the spot
When his disciples had no way of getting.

He was wise, humble and full of compassion
And performed miracles of all kinds and fashion
Until that day of his brutal execution
By the means we now know as crucifixion.

But he rose from the dead as he said he would,
Death at its worst had not him withstood,
On the third day he did what no other could,
Acknowledge him now!  You really should.

He’s the One who flung the stars into space
Put DNA in a cell and created the human race,
To you he now extends his marvelous grace
So that you could be rid of sin without a trace.

He is the visible expression of the invisible God
And existed even before creation began,
He desires to have a relationship with you
Before the foundation of the world this was his plan.

It was necessary for us that Christ should die
And so he left his home far beyond the sky,
Coming to planet earth sin’s scourge to defy
And now on the resurrected Christ even scientists can rely.

I reserve this final verse to acknowledge my source
So that you can go there should that be your course,
“Science Has Found Proof of the Existence of God”,
My acknowledgements to this YouTube video, give it a nod.
