There are people, who do not believe in God. Many may even say THE BIBLE is a Fairy Tale. Supposedly it could not hold up to science and arguments start right away with the story of creation in the Book of Genesis.

1In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. 3Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4And God saw that the light was good. Then he separated the light from the darkness. 5God called the light “day” and the darkness “night.” And evening passed and morning came, marking the first day. (Genesis 1,1-5 – NLT)

The author C.S. Lewis added the idea of song and harmony to the process of creation in his book THE MAGICIAN’S NEPHEW (first of the Narnia Chronicles):

“A voice had begun to sing. It was very far away and Digory found it hard to decide from what direction it was coming. Sometimes it seemed to come from all directions at once. Sometimes he almost thought it was coming out of the earth beneath them. Its lower notes were deep enough to be the voice of the earth herself. There were no words. It was hardly a tune. But it was beyond comparison, the most beautiful sound he had ever heard.”

It is now argued that creation was more a game of chance. No creator was behind it. Nature formed itself through random events from a „Big Bang“ to man walking the earth; a process called Evolution.

When we look at our universe, it so complex and full of interdependencies. Would it not be for the planet Earth having the right distance from the sun, live could not exist. It would be either too cold or too hot. Planets need a certain size in order to maintain an atmosphere. Not every planet has a magnetic force field, but it is needed to block a bunch of spacial radiation, which would kill live.

Even before I became a believer, I had a hard time believing this universe existed by chance only. Creation is so amazingly beautiful, stunning and sometimes majestic. From the tiniest organisms to largest animal relations are so complex, damages are huge, if one aspect is cut out or violated.

A few years ago I learned a bit about subatomic parts, which form atoms. The smallest parts have no weight or measurable dimension. Those parts are pure electric energy moving at a certain frequency. Yet this pure energy forms atoms. Atoms become molecules. Molecules build up to clouds of gas or even visible, tangible objects.

How does sound start? It starts for instance a person exhaling and the vocal chords swinging. The sound than is transmitted by acoustic waves, which reach our ear and are retranslated into electrical frequency which eventually reaches our brain and is recognized as sound.

Get this. Everything we see, hear or feel, is the expression of frequency: light, sound, temperature. They are differently only in how often this energy is swinging in a second.

„But still“, someone might say, „nothing is created by speaking.“

Ah, well. Go and ask any psychologist: when you speak kind, loving and encouraging words to your children regularly, chances are they develop to healthy young adults. If a kid instead is yelled at, discouraged and receives hateful speeches, chances are you CREATE an angry young adult, ready to explode like a bomb.

Nations are formed by speaking about an idea of a nation. Speech turns into action. The action results in forming a nation.

Indeed, speaking has the power to create.

Now consider the time and culture when the Book of Genesis was written. It was a nomadic culture, who never heard of molecules, atoms, or even subatomic particles. How would you begin to describe it to them?

Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

… Brilliant!
