The Best Nature Bible Verses to Find God in Nature

Nature Bible verses for you to experience the wonder of God’s creation. Memorize these verses for your next nature walk and set an intention to step closer to the God of the Universe.

Experiencing God in Nature

One of the best ways to clear your head is to take off for an adult-sized nature walk. Bring your phone and hit a trail. Set an intention to experience God in nature around you.

When you set an intention to look for God in nature, it can be easy to find. God’s in the details we usually run past. The bee on the flower, the flower that’s blooming where no other life seems to be present, the way all the trees appear to be in perfectly horizontal lines.

Begin taking pictures of all of these. It forces you to slow down and really experience it. It doesn’t matter if just delete the pictures later.

Recently I hiked a 14 footer with my 12-year-old daughter. If you don’t know what that is (as I didn’t before that trip), it’s a 14,000-foot mountain. Why the heck I did that, is another story. But during that 8-hour hike, I had moments when my breath was taken away not just from lack of oxygen but from the wonder of God’s creation.

The Bible verse that continually went through my head was Psalm 66:4, about all of creation singing his name.

Shifting Your Perspective

It doesn’t have to be on a mountain that you have this perspective shift. When my children were little, we went on nature walks. During these walks, the kids would take a bucket and fill it up with anything “amazing” from nature. It was usually just leaves and such but what was important was their reverence for nature.

Have you lost your amazement for God in nature? Have you slowed down enough to see God shine through the top of the trees?

Take your camera and a Bible verse below to use a mantra for your next walk. Make it your goal to simply be with God in nature.
