God as Creator
Astrophysicists and other scientists agree that all matter found in our earth and universe since the beginning of time – including the key elements in people, animals, plants, the earth, stars, and the multitude of galaxies – was created at the moment of the formation of all things. In all these years, this has not changed.
Many believe that energy concentrated into a very tiny point, which then exploded with immeasurable force that created matter. This matter then propelled outwardly into the expanse of the universe. Of course, they call this the “Big Bang,” but Bible believers call this God’s creation.
The problem with the Big Bang is that it is still a theory with a missing link for which scientists and archeologists have searched for all these years to no avail. Yet, God’s account in Genesis has no missing links, as it describes so beautifully the order that, through His spoken word, God put into place for us to enjoy.
As Creator, God owns the heavens and the earth (Psalm 24:1-2, 89:11). The prophets and historians in the Bible wrote many verses and promises, which remind us that God is our Creator. All that remains is for each one of us to believe the veracity of God’s Word and to trust Him with our whole heart.
All creation stands in awe of our Creator God. He commanded that our world come into existence, and it still stands fast on its tilted orbit at the perfect degree which sustains our life on this planet (Psalm 33:6-9). The visible and the invisible things of God are all created by Him (Colossians 1:16).
Prayer:
Father God, You are worthy to receive our praises, as well as all the glory, honor and power. You created all things for us to enjoy, starting with the Garden of Paradise. You fashioned all things, and by Your will they all still exist (Revelation 4:11). As beautiful as this sin-cursed world is, it is nothing compared to what You have in store for all Believers (John 14:2).
Through Your creation every human being birthed into this world can see the clear evidence of Your invisible qualities, as well as Your eternal power and divine presence among us. No one has a valid excuse for their unbelief (John 3:18; Romans 1:20). We are humbled by Your generosity and loving kindness to each one of us.
Thought for the Day:
All of creation preaches the validity of God’s existence, the goodness of His intentions for us, and the reality of the hope we have in Him, which causes us to stand in awe of Him, and to feel grateful to be called and chosen by Him to live for eternity as His adopted children.
– Psalm 118:8; Ephesians 1:5-9; 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17; Romans 1:20; 1 Peter 2:9
