Seeing Stars
mankind has been looking to the sky for answers
ever since the beginning
we keep looking even today
mankind has been looking to stars for directions
we keep seeking even today
Genesis 1:16
      God made two great lights
  the greater light to govern the day
and the lesser light to govern the night
       He also made the stars
If a man or woman living among you in one of the
towns the LORD gives you is found doing evil in the
eyes of the LORD your God in violation of his
covenant, and contrary to my command has
worshiped other gods, bowing down to them or to the
sun or the moon or the stars of the sky, and this has
been brought to your attention, then you must
investigate it thoroughly. If it is true and it has been
proved that this detestable thing has been done in
Israel, take the man or woman who has done this evil
deed to your city gate and stone that person to death.

                                 Deuteronomy 17:2-5
when you look up to the sky and see the sun,
 the moon and the stars - all the heavenly array
  do not be enticed into bowing down to them
   and worshiping things the LORD your God
has apportioned to all the nations under heaven
              Deuteronomy 4:19
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie,
and worshiped and served created things
        rather than the Creator
         who is forever praised
            Romans 1:25
Seeing stars
92 percent of Americans
 believe there’s a God
29 percent of Americans
  believe in Astrology
the Bible uses stars as a measurement
Genesis 15:5
       He took him outside and said,
“Look up at the heavens and count the stars
      if indeed you can count them.”
            then he said to him,
         “So shall your offspring be”
Genesis 22:17
  I will surely bless you and make your
descendants as numerous as the stars in
the sky and as the sand on the seashore.
Your descendants will take possession of
         the cities of their enemies,
Genesis 26:4
I will make your descendants as numerous
as the stars in the sky and will give them all
these lands, and through your offspring all
       nations on earth will be blessed
why does this matter?
Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always
  obeyed — not only in my presence, but now
much more in my absence — continue to work
 out your salvation with fear and trembling, for
  it is God who works in you to will and to act
          according to his good purpose
              Philippians 2:12-13
Do everything without complaining or arguing,
so that you may become blameless and pure,
children of God without fault in a crooked and
 depraved generation, in which you shine like
             stars in the universe
             Philippians 2:14-15
we become like the stars
Seeing stars
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you
this testimony for the churches. I am the
Root and the Offspring of David, and the
           bright Morning Star.”
            Revelation 22:16
We have the word of the prophets made
more certain, and you will do well to pay
attention to it, as to a light shining in a
dark place, until the day dawns and the
   morning star rises in your hearts.
              2 Peter 1:19
Seeing stars
perhaps it’s less about the quantity...




    ...and more about our quality
we offer answers
    we can offer direction
 lights in the darkened void
through how we live our lives
like the Bright and Morning Star
