My Worth to God--Part 2

15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
7Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

The first man, Adam was created from the dust of the ground and God performed the miracle of breathing into a formed piece of dirt life. Evolutionary thought cannot bite on that nor can they conceive this for they are too busy evolving us from apes, fish, reptiles, and slime. They cannot agree from which we came!
The Bible is specific: Adam was formed from dust by the hand of God. God breathed His breath into the nostrils of this formed piece of dust. God did not draw the figure of a man in the dust giving him a face and a nose to breath into; He formed the man. That means God took His hands, formed every intricate detail of this man, far too many details to write, from the dust. Adam is the only human never conceived from another body, but the only man formed from the dust of the ground.
Now read the second chapter of Genesis verses 5 & 6:

5Now no shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for the LORD God had not sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. 6But a mist used to rise from the earth and water the whole surface of the ground.

God took dust moist with dew to form Adam so the dust would stick together. Ever tried to form something out of just dry dust? Not that God could not bypass this being the Creator of everything, but used the resources He created. A lesson to us all.
Also notice that no plant, shrub, nor rain had come upon the earth when Adam was created, but just a mist that rose from the earth and water from the surface of the ground. He was created as the Lord was preparing the ground for growth.
So what does this mean to me or anyone else for that matter?
We are all direct descendants of Adam because from Adam's rib was formed Eve and from her all mankind was conceived.

Jehovah-Hoseenu, Lord our Maker,
I praise You for making Adam from the very dust You created from nothing. You are Jehovah-Elohim, our Eternal Creator. From nothing You formed everything with Your Mighty Hands which makes everything a miracle of life.
I pray for the folly of those who claim otherwise trying desperately to run and rebel against You. They do not know what they are doing for they are blinded by the father of lies, the devil. I grieve their passing to come face-to-face with You knowing they have spread the lies into the minds of others, especially the young. I pray they will feel the millstone of the lies around their necks as a warning and receive the revelation of their fate in following the father of lies so they can look up to You, not with a raised fist of defiance as he does, but a raised hand of seeking Your love and mercy for them to follow in the truth. May they praise You for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for these sins forgiving them from that cross. May they praise You because of His resurrection by Your Power so they can be raised to the life of Your Truth. And I ask this in His name, Jesus, Amen
