Job 36:24-25
24 Remember [zakar] that thou magnify [saga'] his work [po`al], which men ['enowsh] behold [shiyr].
25 Every man ['adam] may see [chazah] it; man ['enowsh] may behold [nabat] it afar off [rachowq]. KJV-Interlinear
24 'Remember that you should exalt His work, Of which men have sung. 25 'All men have seen it; Man beholds from afar. NASB
Elihu states here that, 'God is great.' God has included in His creation, the many complexities and vastness, which compliments His greatness.
Whether observing through a telescope or the sensors on a satellite, or through a microscope or more sophisticated sub-atomic measuring devices, the vastness and thoroughness and complexities of this universe go far beyond mans imagination.
We cannot even discover all that there is, let alone comprehend it all. Recent theories of seven (or eleven) dimensions (we are used to the basic four) sends the imagination off the charts of the incomprehensible.
Only in recent decades (less than one percent of human history), have mind boggling discoveries overwhelmed our lifestyles. But the things we have discovered, man did not create, we have just learned the many principles which have always existed in this world and universe, and we have learned to innovate useful gadgets which help improve our daily lives, while advancing our knowledge of this universe.
Man did not create any of the fundamental components of life. God did that. Since time began for humanity, man has celebrated and sung songs of praise and awe for what God has done.
Unfortunately, man looks at life through a narrow view, and judges God based on mans actions. But it is not man who is the inventor. It is God. It is not man who defines truth and the principles of life. It is God.
Throughout history, man has taken Gods name and manipulated it for mans own conveniences or lusts, or power, or alternate explanations. But mans motives and actions though they be evil, do not discount the perfections of Gods true nature.
God presides over this universe and heaven. Heaven being far greater than our universe. Recall our study on the 'vault' of creation, earlier in Job.
Man can barely preside over the space he stands on.
As close as the fragrance of a flower to the nose, or as far as the sight of distant galaxies, Gods creative hand is evident to all.
To those whose intellect can barely grasp the simplest of concepts, to those who possess great theoretical insight, Gods creative hand is evident to all.
Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant. Truth does not depend on your attitude.
