Firm Foundation: Building Your Life on the Unshakable Truth of God's Word

DAY 1 OF 14

Week 1 / Who is God?

Nature of God: God’s Existence

Read: Genesis 1:1-5; Hebrews 11:1-7

SOAP: Genesis 1:1; Hebrews 11:6

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1
“Now without faith it is impossible to please him, for the one who approaches God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.” Hebrews 11:6

Into the Text

Have you ever stood in awe at a breathtaking sunset, felt the gentle breeze on your face, or marveled at the complexity of the human body? Genesis 1:1 declares that God is the author of all creation. The beauty and order in our world testify to His magnificent power and creativity.

But how do we truly know God exists? Hebrews 11:6 tells us that faith is essential. It's not just about seeing with our eyes but believing with our hearts. When we intentionally seek Him, we can't help but find evidence of His presence in our lives all around us.

Don't believe me? Take a moment and think about the scope and grandeur of our universe. Scientists have discovered that the Earth is perfectly positioned in our solar system to support life. The precise conditions necessary for our very existence are not a product of chance but a reflection of a purposeful Designer (Psalm 19:1).

Yet, God's presence is not confined to just the physical realm. We encounter Him in the transformation of our hearts, too. Countless testimonies of transformed lives bear witness to His power and love. In prayer, we feel His comforting embrace. In Scripture, we hear His guiding voice (Jeremiah 29:13).

Sweet friend, everything around us, our faith, and the changes within our hearts testify to a loving Creator who longs for a relationship with us. Take comfort in knowing that the God who created the heavens and Earth also holds you tenderly in His hands. Seek Him today, and you will find Him.

Prayer

Dear Jesus, thank you for revealing yourself through creation and your Word. Help me to see your hand in every aspect of my life. Strengthen my faith to trust in your eternal presence and love. May my heart be drawn to You, the Creator of all. In your name, Amen.

Dan 2
