CREATOR

“In the beginning God created …”

And from Genesis 1:1 until the end of the book, God never stops creating. He created all things, but His most important creation is mankind. Genesis 1:27 tells us that He created mankind (male and female) in His image.

Of all creation, we are the only ones created in the image of God. In Psalm 139, David wrote “For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb.” What God did for David, He also did for you and me. Each of us are knit together with unique DNA and formed in our mother’s wombs, but we all share one purpose. In Isaiah 43:7 the prophet writes “everyone who is called by My name, whom I created for My glory.”

God created us for His glory. How do we display His glory?

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (Ephesians 2:10)

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;  to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:22-24)

As you worship Him this week as Creator, pray that God will show you what He created you to do and seek to be a display of His glory to others in the image of our God.

Sunday Supplication

Creator God, I praise You this week as the One who made the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon, the skies and the seas, plants and the tress, the birds of the air and creatures of the deep, animals both tame and wild, and ALL things. But most of all, I praise You as the Creator who formed me in my mother’s womb and knit me together as a unique being made in Your image. Thank You for never stopping Your work within me. This week, create in me a pure heart and renew a steadfast spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10) AMEN! SO BE IT!

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.

Isaiah 40:28

Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

Isaiah 40:26

Wednesday Wisdom

Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. Here there is no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all. Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

Colossians 3:9-12

Thursday Truth

This is what God the LORD says— the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: “I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness. “I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.

Isaiah 42:5-8
