Behold, Your God. He is the Creator

Entitled, "The eye of the universe". Amazing!!!

“God has brought into existence the whole of creation, which He sustains and upholds by His power. He created the universe out of nothing, and did this for His own purpose and glory” (Robert Hicks and Richard Bewes, Understanding Bible Truth: God)

Today on my Facebook account I posted: ‘God did not need to create the universe, for He is self-sufficient. He decided to bring all the things into being for His Own glory. Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God..." and until today, 24th October 2012, 10.47am, (and forever) - He is still God. So it doesn't make Him less God either you worship Him or not... We need God to provide and sustain our being; God doesn't. Give Him glory, don't waste your life!’ To say further on this statement, I wish and pray that all of us may know that:

God the Creator

The universe has always existed. The consistent teaching of Scripture is that the cosmos (‘the world’) had a beginning. It was not formed from any matter that already existed (so I denied ‘the big bang theory’ – after all, it’s just a theory!). God, the One and only Creator of the universe, brought the world into being by the power of His Word. Hebrews 11:3 says, “[The] entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen” (NLT). So I write, ‘God did not need to create the universe, for He is self-sufficient. He decided to bring all the things into being for His own glory’. The creation involved all three persons of the Godhead; the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit – are One [So when I use the word ‘God’, I’m referring to the Godhead. Clear?].

God the Sustainer

The Bible, the Bible that I read, clearly teaches that God the Creator is also the Provider and Sustainer of all that He has bought into being. He is not an absentee God who made the world and then left it to run itself. I tell you, there are people who believe that He did that: God made things and then He doesn’t care – this is the root of self-centeredness and human self-sufficiency of false teachings. God is the Creator and also the Provider and Sustainer. Acts 14:17 says that God “never left them [His creation] without evidence of himself and his goodness”. Far from remaining distance and remote from His creation, God continues to work in all of His creation. 

God is Achieving His Purpose

God is the ultimate control of all that He has created. This does not mean that we are unable to decide things freely for ourselves; He is not “Master of Puppets” (as thrash metal band Metallica called it). God has given us that freedom – even though we chose to rebel against Him. But it does mean that God is active, and bringing about the things He wants to happen. He is the Creator of creation and He has purpose for them – He is achieving His purpose. “God’s purpose may be stated very simply,” writes Robert Hicks and Richard Bewes, “It is to restore fallen humanity and the creation to the freedom and perfection that have been lost because of humankind’s rebellion. God the creator is also God the redeemer.”

Earth is a Focal Point

If you never been anywhere outside this country, you might think that Malaysia is quite big – true, but think again. Even the earth is a very small planet in a vast universe that is filled with thousands upon thousands upon thousands of galaxies! But it is apparent from the Bible that the Creator of the cosmos has set His loving concern upon this earth that we living in. Our planet is the central of God’s purpose. Our planet is the part of creation where a special relationship has been planned between God and men, who have been formed in His image (Genesis 1:27). Man is the central to God’s plan for the whole universe. The Bible has a song for this,

“When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers—

the moon and the stars you set in place—

what are mere mortals that you should think about them,

human beings that you should care for them?

Yet you made them only a little lower than God

and crowned them with glory and honor.

You gave them charge of everything you made,

putting all things under their authority—

the flocks and the herds

and all the wild animals,

the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea,

and everything that swims the ocean currents.

O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!”

(Psalms 8:3-9NLT)

Reflect this O Creation

God is the Creator. God is the Provider and Sustainer. God is the Redeemer. God have a Purpose for the universe and especially for Man. How does that make you feel about God? about yourself?

Therefore, Give Him glory, don't waste your life!

THINK BIG. START SMALL. GO DEEP.

Entitled: "M82 Galaxy, Crab Nebula" Superb! Glory to God Alone... I'm amazed.
