God Got This!

In the beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 (AMP)

In the beginning, God – this is how the Bible begins.  God alone existed.  Then he created the heavens and the earth.  Creation is then the work of God brining all things into existence out of nothing.  This should be quite comforting for all of us who love and serve God.

When God created – He revealed His immutability.  This simply means He does not change.  Although He changes situations and even us, He Himself does not change.  God said I the LORD do not change (Malachi 3:6).  This is good news because it means God is still creating something out of nothing.

When God created – He also revealed His infinitude.  That is, God has no beginning, and He has no ending.  In the beginning, there was God only.  Then He created the beginning of time.  When time ends, God will remain.  Psalm 102:25-27 lets us know that, In the beginning you laid the foundations ...  They will perish, but you remain … and your years will never end.  This is yet still good news for us because God will never stop creating something out of nothing.

Also when God created – He further revealed His unlimited power.  Now although God has all power, there are some things He cannot or will not do.  He cannot lie (Hebrews 6:18).  He will not contradict Himself (Mark 3:25).  And He will not overturn our free-will choices.  Even with what He cannot or will not do – God still possess the ability to do the impossible.

Today let us remember – no matter what seemingly impossible situation(s) we face – God is still capable of turning the impossible to possible.  So whatever it is – let us confidently confess and profess – God Got This!
