Through The Bible in a Year - January 5, 2026

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." – Genesis 1:1

God didn't just create with His power—He created with precision. The universe operates with such exact coordination that even minor changes would make life impossible. If the Earth were a few miles closer to the sun, we'd burn. A few miles farther, we'd freeze. If your blood were slightly thinner, you'd hemorrhage. Slightly thicker, you'd die of stroke.

From the cosmic level down to the microscopic machines inside your cells, everything is "just right." This isn't random chance—it's the intelligent design of a wise Creator.

The same God who calibrated the perfect distance between Earth and the sun knows exactly what you need today. He coordinates seasons, harvests, and heartbeats. Your life is not left to random chance—you're held by wisdom beyond comprehension.

Respond: Look for three examples today of God's wise design—in nature, in your body, in the way that seemingingly random circumstances have unfolded for good. Thank Him for His attention to detail.

Prayer: Wise Creator, You designed the universe with perfect precision, and You've designed my life with the same care. Help me trust Your wisdom when I don't understand Your timing or Your ways. You see what I cannot. Help me to trust in that. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
