Appreciating God Through His Creation

Theme for the Week: HUMANKIND'S REJECTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

Reading: Psalm 104:1-9
_________________________

Psalm 104: 1 (TLB)
I bless the Lord: O Lord my God, how great you are! You are robed with honor and with majesty and light! You stretched out the starry curtain of the heavens,

Throughout this week, we are studying how the knowing of God is inscribed in His creation, although mankind seem to reject this knowledge.

In today's passage, we see the psalmist appreciate God on the account of creation. God did not just create, but also, He holds everything together by His power.

We should not reject this knowledge at any time. We should not be forgetful so soon. Just look around you, you will see the great and marvelous things God made, including yourself. Appreciate God for His greatness is incomparable and He alone deserves all honour, majesty and glory.
Stay blessed. Shalom.

Let's Pray:
O Lord our God, how great You are. You are robed with honour, majesty and light, and we appreciate You through Jesus Christ. Amen.

God Sustains the Universe

Theme for the Week: HUMANKIND'S REJECTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

Reading: Hebrews 1:1-3
--------------------------------------

Hebrews 1:3 (NIV)
3. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

At every point in time, God reveals Himself in different way. He wants to have fellowship with us always, and so He wants us to know Him better.

This is why He revealed Himself to us through Jesus Christ, and now the Holy Spirit. He alone has power to sustain the universe, because He made it. Politicians will say their part; so would the astrologers, the economists and like, but to no avail.

Dear friend, God wants us to know that He alone has the blueprint of the universe. We should not forget that no matter the difficulties our universe may seem to face, God is ever ready to sustain that for us. Let us hand over our universe to Him for He is the sustainer of all the universe.
Stay blessed.

Let's Pray:
Heavenly Father, we adore You. O Lord, sustain the universe in which You have placed us in Jesus' name. Amen.

God, The All-powerful Creator

Theme for the Week: HUMANKIND'S REJECTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

Reading: Psalm 8:1-9
--------------------------------------

Psalm 8:3 (NIV)
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

The hand works of God  are so marvelous that we cannot seem to think of how powerful He is. Just as everything God created declares His glory, so does everything tells of His power.

Having all power, He considered mankind and gave man authority over everything other thing He made. Do you consider yourself worthless? Think of how God created you and put you in His stead on the earth.

God is All-powerful. No man or being can be powerful as He is. Who has been able to create even a little like Jehovah? Let him come out and display his creation. Indeed our God is all powerful; let us not forget this as His people.
Shalom.

Let's Pray:
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens. Father, give us the heart of a child to always praise; for You are the all-powerful creator. Amen.

The Heavens Declare The Glory Of God

Theme for the Week: HUMANKIND'S REJECTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

Reading: Psalm 19:1-6
----------------------------------

Psalm 19:1 (NIV)
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

It is amazing how everything God created declare His glory. No wonder that it is believe that God left His essence in everything. However, that does not guarantee that you should worship anything as God.

To God alone must glory be ascribed; He alone deserves to be worshipped. As for the LORD God, He would never share His glory with any man, not to talk of a thing He never created in His image.

Brethren, we should not forget about God in anyway. If you have forgotten, just look at the firmaments; look at the skies and see how God's glory is revealed day and night.
Stay blessed.

Let's Pray:
LORD God, indeed, the heavens are telling of Your glory; the skies proclaim the works of Your hand. May our hearts and mouths never cease to declare Your glory, O Lord, our Maker. Amen.

Full Knowledge of the Truth

Theme for the Week: HUMANKIND'S REJECTION OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD

Reading: Hebrews 10:26-27

Hebrews 10:26 (KJV)
[26]For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

Knowledge, they say, is power. Knowledge about something makes you aware of what that entails, and so guides you in your dealings.

Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin (James 4:17). We have the knowledge of God and His wrath against sin. Why do we continue to fuel the wrath of God towards us by choosing continue in sin?

Dearly beloved, the truth must set us free, and not endanger us. Let us be conscious about the wrath of God against all godlessness and wickedness, knowing that although God loves the sinner, He hates sin and will bring sin into judgement.
Stay blessed.

Let's Pray:
Almighty God, we praise You. O Lord, forgive us our sins, and grant you the desire to flee from sin, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
