In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
– Genesis 1:1

Consider the creative ability required for God to create our world.  He creates thousands of different animals in all shapes and sizes.  He creates giraffes, elephants, rhinos, hippos, hamsters, penguins, eagles, robins, whales, sharks, shrimp, lobsters, and so much more.  He creates thousands of different types of plants.  Some plants bear fruits of various color, shape, and taste.  Many plants have flowers in incredible variety.  He creates different environments on the earth – deserts, forests, prairies, mountains, oceans, and more.  He fills space with stars and planets of incredible variety.  What creativity to make all of this!

Consider the wisdom and knowledge required for God to create our world.  What he designs must actually function.  Animals must move and breathe and eat and multiply.  God must come up with practical things like hearts, lungs, livers, spinal cords, and so much more.  All of this made up of cells, made up of atoms, made up of….  And then there are plants which need to grow and bear fruit and form seeds.  And all these plants and animals have to fit together in their habitat.  And the earth has to be just the right distance from the sun.  And, and, and….  We have spent several thousand years trying to figure out how our world works.  But God knows it all.  What wisdom and knowledge to make all of this!

Consider the power required for God to create our world.  There is nothing, and with a word God creates something.  With a word, he makes planets and stars and plants and animals.  With a word.  What authority!  What power!  Ponder the power required to make this vast universe.  And God does it all by simply speaking it into existence.  What power to make all of this!

This is our Creator.  This is our God.

Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
– Psalm 95:6
