Through the Bible: Genesis

DAY 1 OF 15

 The Beginning

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:1-2 (ESV)

The Bible does not set out to prove the existence of God. However, it states this truth as a fact that in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The author of Genesis describes that the Holy Spirit was hovering over the empty darkness. Therefore, we can proclaim that our God has always been here. Before we first drew breath, He was present. Before the earth was formed, He was present, and His Holy Spirit was present.

This creation story teaches us about God and ourselves. God does not need to create the heavens and earth; He chose to create them. God created the world and people as an expression of His love. God is creative. As the Creator, He is distinct from His creation; He is eternal and in control of the world. Since God chose to create us, we are valuable in His eyes and we have a special place in this world.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for being our Creator God who made the heavens and earth to be inhabited and filling them with such richness and beauty. Thank You for our salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ – through Him all things were made, in Him was life and that life was the light of all mankind. In Jesus' name, Amen.
