God exists and He is our Creator

Genesis 1:1 – “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”

Many Christians have neglected the power of the first ten words in the Bible which says "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." We simply use or associate these words as the primary reference to the theoretical and theological explanation of creation (creationism) to compete with the theory of evolution. We have a strong belief that these statements are just for mere reference to support our faith in creationism.

These words indeed bear the very nature of our God that He exists prior to his creation and that clearly signified in these words of the Bible. It characterised the omnipresent and transcendent nature of our God and the clear authorship of the created object which bears the concept called trilogy of trilogy. The trilogy of trilogy refers to the object measured in time, space, and matters which interrelated but cannot stand on its own. Time refers to past, present, future. Space refers to length, width, and height. Matters or content refers to solid, liquid, and gas. Every objects bears this vivid measurement which clearly imparted by its author, our God. "In the beginning" - refers to time, "God created the heavens" - refers to space, "and the earth" - refers to matter. 

An object always has the time, space, and matter. If anyone or anything that can separate and stand without the others is indeed the only divine being, whom I believe is our God alone. We cannot measure God's existence, His Glory, and His Love. These are the characters He bears that only He can stand it separately. No one ever knows the time before the beginning, the glory of heavens and love of God to people He created here on earth. With this, we are confident to answer the question of where God came from. As this kind of question is subjective and is not even allowed to ask to our Creator.

Like us who can create things such as computers, we imparted a part of us and let it run by itself. The computer is limited with its designed function and purpose. We do not participate anymore when it runs, unless it is in trouble, we help to fix it. But if we ask the computer where your creator came from? Unless the creator stored such information to it, it will not be answered and probably bug down when it tried so hard to find the answer. However, it can only say proudly, I am created in His image and that is enough from me.

Do not get yourself stuck in this question; our Author has its own rights not to reveal all the mysteries He holds. God existed, exist, and will exist in the manner He wants and no creations are allowed to question it unless He himself revealed it. In John 3:8, Jesus revealed this wisdom too "The wind blows wherever it will, and you hear the sound it makes, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." 

God bless you all!

Put Our Hope In God, not in uncertainties

(Midweek Devotions, 1 Timothy 6:17-21 - 25 Oct 2023) 1 Timothy 6:17-20 17  Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.  18  Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.  19  In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. 20  Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care. Turn away from godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge,  21  which some have professed and in so doing have departed from the faith. Grace be with you all. We are in the final last 5 verses in book of First Timothy, an important pastoral letter which is very helpful for any man of God...

Man of God - Pursue, Fight, Take Hold

(Midweek Devotion - 1 Timothy 6:11-16, 18 Oct 2023) 1 Timothy 6:11-16 11  But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. 12   Fight the good fight of the faith . Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13   I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, 14   to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15  which he will display at the proper time—he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16  who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen. In the parting words of Apostle Paul to Timothy, aft...

Spiritual Gifts Are Free Gifts

Acts 8: 18-23 18  Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,  19  saying, "Give me this power also, so that anyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit."  20  But Peter said to him, "May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!  21  You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.  22  Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.  23  For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity." All disciples of Jesus have given the power from God through the Holy Spirit. This is something Jesus had told us that He will send us an advocate or a helper and He will teach us with righteousness and will help us to remember everything that He taught us. T...

Godliness with Contentment is Great Gain

(Midweek Devotion, 1 Timothy 6:6-10) 1 Timothy 6:6-10 6  But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7  for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8  But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9  But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10  For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs. One of today’s common deception in modern Christianity movement is the use of the Gospel as a solution to life of prosperity. Though the Bible have shown us many great examples of people of God who received and accumulated great wealth in their obedience to God, that does not mean that we also have to focus of such things in our walk of faith. What does the Bible said about prosperities ...

Respect - To Serve Them Even Better

(Midweek Devotion, 1st Timothy 6:1-2, 27 Sept 2023) 1st Timothy 6:1-2 1 All who are under the yoke of slavery should consider their masters worthy of full respect, so that God’s name and our teaching may not be slandered. 2 Those who have believing masters should not show them disrespect just because they are fellow believers. Instead, they should serve them even better because their masters are dear to them as fellow believers and are devoted to the welfare of their slaves. One of the great things about the Sacred Scriptures is that, it does not talk about God alone but also talks about His creatures behaviour, particularly human being, more specificallly those who are His people. 1st Timothy 6 gave us an idea of how both one who are UNDER authority and one who are IN authority should behave as bearers of the name of God. The Bible clearly values authority and how important one should submit to an authority over him. The Bible itself claims authority for Truth, thus, no wonder tha...
