The Father gave man creation as an establishing point for faith. Genesis 1:1-26

All that He spoke and did led up to the climax of making man.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27

God pleased Himself in advance – when man came into existence. Please understand god’s love. He was pleased before He was pleased.

6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:6-8

I don’t know exactly what Adam saw when he first laid eyes on God. But God saw FAITH in action. Before any dirt or bodies of water came together – faith was already working in God.

The Lord allowed the first man to look upon Him in a visual aspect. The only way Adam could see God was through the eyes of faith. Without faith – the first humans were none visual.

Today’s humans experience faith by not seeing a physical God. Man goes into a wilderness/dry place when he has to see everything. See life through the eyes of God.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Hebrews 11:3

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6

Be it known – a Kingdom exists beyond what natural eyes are able to see. Matthew 13:1-52

31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:31-33

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. Romans 14:17

When God created man, He was not thinking about communities and families – He was thinking about Kingdoms.

God was not threatened when Ishmael Left Abraham. He was not the promised child. Instead, God made provisions for Ishmael because He knew this child would start another Kingdom. Genesis 17:1-22

What brings complexity to our brain – brings glory to God. How can God’s enemies understand love? How can they be brought back into truth by the very thing they fight against? A touch from the Lord changes any person. Acts 9:1-27

Our Creator has an established code of ethics. He honors His Word.

And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. Luke 4:4 

The Lord promised Abraham that Ishmael’s loins would produce a great nation.

And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. Genesis 17:20

God’s word is a time-honored order of commitments and commandments. Nothing can prevent His Word. Once released – the Word of God goes into atmospheric regions, universal stratospheres, dominions, and kingdoms.

The power of darkness is subsequent and subservient to powers far greater than depth, height, flight, width, and span. Darkness has a mass that is channeled and programed by the voice of God.

When God’s voice speaks – everything turns to light. Darkness is mass and not volume – either it comes forth or it dissipates.

Darkness does not have the capacity to reproduce itself. Darkness tries to preserve itself in the mind and body of created things that do have volume.

When God spoke, “Let there be light” in creation, the eternal existence of light shone forth out of a mass that was trying to recreate itself.

All Knowing God – understood the craft of evil and its intentions. He stopped darkness from being competition to His Word not His creation.

God knew what He was going to speak before He spoke. All creation waited earnestly anticipating a revolutionary change.

A separation happened. God caused un-created things in darkness to cease – while He operated. Darkness could no longer attach, clamp onto, intermingle, or persuade light to disobey God!

At the command of God’s voice – darkness had to detachable itself from everything good!

Everything became whole. It was whole light or whole darkness.

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. 6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day. 14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. Genesis 1:1-19

The universe is One.

One Thought.

One Idea.

One Concept.

One language, and one bond.

Fight this if you will but the “Oneness is Love”.

4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:4-5

And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one. Zechariah 14:9

4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. Ephesians 4:4-6

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3:16-21

Man does not own the Bible, a canonized theology of words; but he can own the Word of God – as a substitute or fill-in of faith – for God’s presence. Speak and declare His Word or worship Him – and His presence comes.

46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. 49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak. John 12:46-50

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:31-32

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:24

The same wisdom that created the universe – caused men to write God’s Holy Word.

When a “Believer” shows great stewardship over God’s Word – it is entrusted to that person as a keepsake.

God’s published Word – the Bible – has no respecter of persons. It does not discriminate. God’s Word is not for a select few. Every culture and nationality are open to receive God’s gift of love.

34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: 35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. Acts 10:34-35

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1

Anyone can hold and posses the precious Word of the Lord. It is a unique gift just like life. God’s Word is truth and life. Thank You Lord for Your precious Word!

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:8-13

As we speak the Word of God – His presence comes. His Word is proven through His presence.

God took dirt and sand to start human life. He breathed into sand that did not blow away. He put all of Him – which a human could possibly stand inside man. He took the dead bodies of Abraham and Sarah to start new life. Lord You are the inventor of Genius!

God gave Adam every possible thing to start life. The Father’s intention was not for Adam to just become a farmer. He wanted him to build “Kingdoms”.

3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Peter 1:3-8

Our glorious Lord wanted His creation to escape the pitfalls of sin – and live an abundant life. God wanted man to continually practice living with Him forever.

God wanted man to build Kingdoms so he could rule over sin!

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10

God’s Word is flawless. I am not tasked with proving one single thing in scripture. My only job is to show and represent – what is already written and spoken in God’s Holy Word.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:12-17

The Promises of God

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. 15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto. 16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. 17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. 18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise. 19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. 21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:13-29

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Hebrews 13:5

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. Deuteronomy 31:6

For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. 1 Samuel 12:22

I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. Psalm 37:25

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10

When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. Isaiah 41:17

For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. Psalm 37:28
