I believe these first few verses, these first few lines of the Bible are INCREDIBLY ENCOURAGING! God SPOKE the world into existence. He SPOKE and things happened. Go outside and try that. See what you can do simply by speaking.
With a word God made the earth.
With a word God made the sun.
With a word God made the oceans.
With a word God made the animals.
Now, He put a little bit more effort into you and I, but I’ll save that for another discussion on another day.
Here’s why I would suggest this is so encouraging… if God can simply SPEAK and miracles happen, what more CAN He and WILL He do in your life and mine? He’s BIGGER and GREATER than whatever you or I have faced in the past, will face in the future, or might be facing right now.
God is unstoppable.
God is unshakeable.
God is… in control.
Reflect:
- When was the last time you found yourself struggling with worry and anxiety?
- Do your actions and attitude reflect a faith in a God is in control?
- What would change if you lived believing God is BIGGER and GREATER than your circumstances?
- What circumstance has you all wrapped up in stress right now? Are you ready to hand it over to God?
