PSALM 19: 1-6. (NRSCVE)

Psalm 19: 1-6

1 The "heavens" are telling the glory of God; and the "firmament [skies]" proclaims his handiwork ["name"].

2 Day to day pours forth speech,
and night to night declares knowledge.

3 There is no speech, nor are there words;  their voice is not heard;

4 yet their voice [b] goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In the heavens[c] he has set a tent for the Sun

5 which comes out like a bridegroom from his wedding canopy, and like a strong man runs its course with joy.

6 Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them;  and nothing is hid from its heat.

    If you literally interpret the first verse, then you could be a weather forecaster or perhaps merely as an NASA's admirer.  But, if you see the passages as spiritual words or as Lyrics, then you need the Holy Spirit to explain them to you. If we do know the Spiritual meanings, then our intellectual capacities might still be tempted in seeking the prophesied literal 'signs.'  If we do not know both of them, then we do not know the clues which point to His Second Return.

     If we could hear the Spirit, then we could 'hear' and 'see' the 'Spirit' of the "firmament" and "heavens." It is the Spirit of the 'firmament' and 'heavens' that tells us about His glory and proclaims unto us about His handiwork (name; mission). 

     Seeing the sun, for example, in a spiritual vision gives a completely different message compare to staring the literal sun in the sky.  The literal skies and the heavens provide us the hints for weather forecasting either the outer space weather or the weather conditions within the earth's atmospheres, but the 'heavens' and the 'skies' we see in the spiritual visions or the Lyrics, revealing unto us the handiwork (mission) of His hand.  Thus, the literal sceneries of the heaven and sky enable us to predict the weather conditions, but the latter, the Spiritual Lyrics, concerning heavens and skies enable us to prognosticate, either future, the past or the present divine handiwork as according to the Word. The Lyrics in Matthew 24: 29, therefore, reveals the "Spirit" of the 'heavens' and 'firmament': the firmament portends the handiwork (mission) of Judgment, and His "name" is the Judge who judges in equity! So do, Zechariah 14: 5,6,7, Psalm 50: 4, 6, Revelation 6: 12-13, and Genesis 8: 21-22;  they reveal divine handiworks (missions).
