Creator (Daily Devotional)

Hello everyone, such a joy to study about the person of God and His creativity. Today, we will talk about God as creator. As we go back to the very first scripture in the bible, we read that ‘in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.’ The very first introduction of the nature of God is as a creator. He created the heavens and the earth. As we proceed, we will see a list of creatures that He created, creatures on the land, creatures in the sea, creatures in the sky, plants, various things that God created. So, the ability to create was in God and it continues to be in God. As we study the scriptures, we see that the Godhead is a creative Godhead. All the three, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit were involved in creation and they continue to be engaged in creating things here for us, not just for us, God is the creator, that is the point I’m making. So, we see God as a creator has that creative streak and as we read the passages in the book of Genesis, we notice that God was happy with all that He created which tells us that He did a pretty good job, so as He finished each task, He would say, it is good, this is good. God was happy, even when He created man, He delighted and He appreciated His own work. Such is the creative ability of God, He made things, He didn’t stress about it, He enjoyed the work which He did and that speaks a lot to us that we can create what God has put inside us, the ability that He has given us to create, we can use it, we can also enjoy the work and delight in the things that we do. God enjoyed His work. Here is the next question, how did God create the heavens and the earth? Do He use some very heavy equipment to do this? In this case, in the book of Psalm, reveals the method He used to create. Psalm chapter 33, verse 6, it says, ‘By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.’ Even Genesis record that for us. God just spoke and said, ‘let there be light and there was light’. What did God use to create the heavens and the earth? His word, His breath carries power, it carries authority, it has the capacity to produce and so God’s word carries creative ability and even as we speak His words which He has put in our mouth, we can see that same ability to create being released in our day to day lives. So, God created by the power of His word. Let’s pray that God will give us a deeper understanding of the power of His word. Let’s pray together, Heavenly Father, we thank you that you are a creator. Father, even as you have done this by the power of your word, we pray that you will help us understand the authority of your word, in Jesus’ name we ask, Amen.
