Gospel Moments (3): Creator God (Part Three)

 

CREATOR GOD

Genesis 1:1 ESV
In the beginning,
God created the heavens
and the earth.

If God’s Word
begins with
this clear defining
statement that
GOD created the heavens
and the earth,
it is no surprise then
that the enemy has gone
after this truth
with full force.

God is LORD
of creation,
and this truth
establishes who is
in control
and
Lord of ALL.

How vehemently then
does Satan
want to oppose this?

Vehemently!
He longs to be
lord of all and to be
in control of you.
He will use guilt, shame,
accusation, and lies,
anything to
overwhelm, confuse, and
discourage …
whatever will work
to bring you under
his control.

So don’t feel guilty or
beat yourself up when you
encounter resistance
from the enemy or
even from your flesh
as if there was something
wrong with you.
God has experienced
opposition from the very
beginning.
You may feel weak,
wounded, or worthless,
but that is exactly
what the enemy of God
wants you to focus upon.
He hates God.
He hates those who love God.
He HATES the truth!

But,
we know the truth
and the truth will set us free.

Speak the truth to your heart.
Take the gospel to heart.
God is creator
and Lord of all.
Remember that
this life we live is on
a battlefield and we will
experience great resistance.
We are not in heaven yet.

Taking the Gospel to Heart
and Bringing It to Life

Take each thought to heart
and carefully consider what
you believe.
Guard your mind from lies,
hold fast to what is true:
God created the heavens
and the earth.
He is Lord of ALL.
If you are in Christ
He is your Lord.

Close in prayer and worship
with the following Psalm.

Psalm 136:1-9
Give thanks to the Lord,
for he is good,
for his steadfast love
endures forever.
2  Give thanks to the God of gods,
for his steadfast love
endures forever.
3  Give thanks to the
Lord of lords,
for his steadfast love
endures forever;
4  to him who alone does
great wonders,
for his steadfast
love endures forever;
5  to him who by understanding
made the heavens,
for his steadfast love
endures forever;
6  to him who spread out
the earth above the waters,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
7  to him who made the great lights,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
8  the sun to rule over the day,
for his steadfast love
endures forever;
9  the moon and stars to rule
over the night,
for his steadfast love
endures forever;

In Jesus’ Name,

Amen.
