Special Care

We get it! "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible" (Hebrews 11:3). You and I take hold of that truth! The supernatural faith God has given us assigns the whole credit for Creation to none other than God. . . not to evolution or some other myth.

Where we get into difficulty is not in recognizing that God made the world, but thinking He assigned the care of the world to "nature." It's as if we think some divine energy propels everything, keeping it stabilized WITHOUT God.

The Bible teaches that God is the everlasting Governor and Preserver in sustaining, nourishing and caring for everything. . . every little and every big thing . . . people, animals, rocks, trees, snow, mountain streams etc., . . . everything !!!!  Are we ready for this? Are we really ready to believe that God "Sends the springs into the valleys,"  that He gives "drink to every beast of the field," that "He waters the hills from His upper chambers" "putting sap into the trees," and "causing the sun to go down?" (Psalm 104) . . .  

 

God who made us AND nature did not leave either of us to propel along on our own. He rules over all and in all.

 ". . . for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do anything like Your works and Your mighty deeds?" (Deuteronomy 3:24 NKJ).
