Have you ever thought that God speaks to us through the laws of nature? A recent study by Bermond et al. (2025) reveals something extraordinary in the world of quantum physics—heat itself can oscillate in a unique way under the influence of a magnetic field!
In this experiment, scientists studied how heat moves through a special material called ZrTe₅, known as a semimetal. The result? They found that thermal conductivity (the ability of a material to transfer heat) doesn’t flow smoothly as we might expect, but oscillates in a specific pattern—as if an unseen hand is precisely controlling it. This happens due to the interaction between tiny particles called phonons (vibrations in solid materials) and electrons in a magnetic field.
If we look deeper, this phenomenon reflects the incredible order in God’s creation. The Bible has long declared that God has set the universe in place with unshakable laws ini Jeremiah 10:12,
"But God made the earth by His power; He established the world by His wisdom and stretched out the heavens by His understanding."
Imagine—God designed the laws of physics down to the subatomic level, where even heat doesn’t move randomly but follows a preordained pattern established by Him from the beginning. It’s like seeing God’s fingerprint in science!
This research also proves that scientific methods continue to uncover the mysteries of the universe, ultimately leading us back to one question: How could all this order exist without a Creator? As the Psalm 19:1 declares,
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands."
Science is not something that contradicts faith. In fact, the deeper we explore this world, the more we realize that everything has been designed with incredible wisdom. God not only created the universe but also governs all its mechanisms perfectly.
So, when we see the beauty in physics, biology, or astronomy, let’s not just think it’s a coincidence. These are all signs pointing to the greatness of God! The more we learn, the more we are in awe of Him.
