Creation Cries Out To GOD

All creation cries out to GOD and shows His Glory.
Genesis 1:1-2, “In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of GOD was hovering over the face of the waters.”
John 1:1-5, 9-11, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was GOD. He was in the beginning with GOD. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 
Psalm 24:1-2, “The earth is the LORD’s and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein. For He has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the waters.”
Psalm 90: 1-2, “LORD, You have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever You formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting You are GOD.”
Proverbs 8:12-31
Revelation 4:11, “You are worthy, O LORD, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and by Your will they exist and were created.”
Psalm 139:13-17, “For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.”
Romans 1:18-23, “For the wrath of GOD is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and  unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of GOD is manifest in them, for GOD has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew GOD, they did not glorify Him as GOD, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible GOD into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.”
Isaiah 40:21-22, “Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.”
Psalm 19:1-6, “The heavens declare the glory of GOD; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. Their voice has gone out through all the earth and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices like a strong man to run its race. Its rising is from one end of heaven, and its circuit to the other end; and there is nothing hidden from its heat.”
Isaiah 66:1-2, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Heaven is My throne, and the earth My footstool. Where is the house that you will build for Me? And where is the place of My rest? For all those things My hand has made, and all those things exist,’ Says the LORD. ‘But on this one will I look: on him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at My word.’”
Job 12:7-10 “But now ask the beasts, and they will teach you; and the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; and the fish of the sea will explain to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this, in whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind?”
Job 36-41
Psalm 139:7-12, “Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me. If I say, ‘Surely the darkness shall fall on me,’ even the night shall be light about me; indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, but the night shines as the day; the darkness and the light are both alike to You.
Psalm 147:4-5, “He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name. Great is our LORD, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.”
Psalm 148
Matthew 3:9, “…and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that GOD is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.”
Luke 19:39-40, “And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, ‘Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.’ But He answered and said to them, ‘I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.’”
Romans 8:19-22, “For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of GOD. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of GOD. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.
Matthew 28:17-20, “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ Amen.”
Revelation 15:3-4, “They sing the song of Moses, the servant of GOD, and the song of the Lamb, saying: ‘Great and marvelous are Your works, LORD GOD Almighty! Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints! Who shall not fear You, O LORD, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, for Your judgments have been manifested.’”
Revelation 21:1, “Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea.”
Revelation 22:1-2, “And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the thrown of GOD and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month.  The leaves of the were for the healing of the nations.”
One thing is clear from this limited selection of scriptures: GOD created everything that exists and He created it with purpose! And everything cries out to GOD in praise and worship both animate and inanimate! Is there praise and worship of GOD in your spirit, soul, and body?

“Father GOD, through Your Holy Spirit, teach me to live my life in praise and worship of my Redeemer and LORD Jesus Christ. I want to live my life for You and Your Kingdom in humility and obedience.  In Jesus’ name. Amen!”
