Something from the Science Fair

Not only do the physics of sound demonstrate God’s great omnipotence and creative ability, but He uses sound as an integral part of our relationship with Him. He has made us to worship Him with sound, He listens to our cries for help, and in future we will be able to hear the sound of His mighty voice.
Here are some examples straight from God’s Word:

He hears our prayers and we sing to Him in praise!
Psalm 30:10 & 12, “Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me; Lord, be my helper! To that end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever.”

His voice is powerful and mighty.
Psalm 29:3-4, “The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the Lord is over many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.”
Job 37: 4 & 5, “After it a voice roars; He thunders with His majestic voice, and He does not restrain them when His voice is heard. God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things which we cannot comprehend.”

We will know He is coming because of the sound of the trumpet.
1st Thessalonians 4:16, “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.”

We tell others about Him through the sound of our words.
Romans 10:14, “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?”

Around His throne are many sounds of rumblings and praises.
Revelation 4:5a & 8, “And from the throne proceed lightnings, thunderings, and voices. The four living creatures…do not rest day or night saying: ‘Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!’”

Let us join our sound in praising the great God of the universe who uses the sound He has created to make Himself known to us.
