Romans 1:19-20
How to Know God Exists Since You Can’t See Him
“You can’t see God, so how do you know He’s there?” people sometimes ask. I think one of the best responses is found in Romans 1:19-20 where Paul writes:
“…because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power, and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.”
Paul acknowledges that God is invisible to our eye. However, he points out that God’s existence is clearly seen by how God has and continues to express Himself through creation.
Look at the glory of the sunrise, sunset, and heavens. Consider the majesty of the mountains. Inspect the tiniest flower. Count the sizes, shapes, and colors of animals. Marvel at the miracle of the human body.
God may be invisible, but His handiwork is clearly visible. Our privilege and calling is to give credit where credit is due for God’s creation, eternal power, and divine nature that is clearly displayed. Join me in the following chorus of praise.
“Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.” 1 Timothy 1:17
King eternal, immortal, INVISIBLE God, we praise You and thank You for the glory of Your creation and for making Yourself clearly seen through Your handiwork. May our lives point people to You.

In other words, look at the glory of the heavens. Look at the glory of the flowers, trees, animals, oceans. Look at the wonder of the human body. God may be invisible, but His handiwork is clearly visible. Our privilege and calling is give credit where credit is due for the creation, eternal power, and divine nature that is displayed in our world, universe, human body, air we breath. Join me in the following chorus of praise.
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. 1 Timothy 1:17
King eternal, immortal, INVISIBLE God, we praise You and thank You for the glory of Your creation and for making Yourself clearly seen through Your handiwork.
