Listen to the Word

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.  (Genesis 1:3)

God’s might was on clear display in creation. He simply spoke everything into existence. He announced that he wanted it to happen, and it happened. He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. He said, “Let there be llamas,” and there were llamas! And he made it all out of nothing. Perhaps you could build something, but you would need materials with which to build. You couldn’t construct something out of thin air. But God took nothing and made everything. He didn’t just shape some pre-existing stuff. There was no stuff to be shaped until God said, “Let there be stuff!”

Live the Word

Take a look out your window and notice something God created. Ponder for a moment the power that was required to design and build what you see.
