It is interesting that God told us immediately at the beginning of the Bible that He created the earth. You are familiar with the wording:
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." He continued by telling in some detail the process, the order, by which He did that. But there are many other references to the creation in the Bible. We look at a few mentions in this blog.
Psalm 19: "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork."
Isaiah 40:21, "Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in."
And here is the purpose of man: "..For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2: 10
And how do we know that there is a God...and that He created the universe? Romans 1:20, "For since the creation of the world, His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse..."
The Bible makes clear that God's power and creation can be seen just by looking up...and around you. His creation is obvious. And those who don't know if there is a God are without excuse because these things can be "clearly seen."
God made sure that we are told that He created the world...and He made sure that we can see that He created the world and all around it, all of the universe. Let us praise Him!
Thanks for reading. God bless.....
