Genesis

I LOVE Genesis! I love how you read it and you're like - 'but that's too simple!' But then you think about it and you realise how massively awesome God is and if he put creation in terms of how he actually made everything we would never understand it anyway. It's on my level and I love that!

So, this is gonna be a quick one as have only got to Genesis 3 but in Genesis 1, I came up with the conclusion that NOTHING IS TOO BIG FOR GOD, HE HAS A PLAN! Awesome or what!

From Genesis 2 I figured the following:
-We were made for relationship
-God has trusted us with freedom
-God gives us choices. We've been told through the Bible and even our conscience what is right and what is wrong. We choose which we go for!
-God loves unity

And last but not least, Genesis 3:
-Satan works to a pattern starting with lies and deciept
-Get soaked up in the Word of Truth so that we don't believe Satan't lies
-There are always consequences to sin
-Sin separates us from God, we hide from him
-God still provides for Adam and Eve, he doesn't stop loving them.

I really feel inspired to read more of the Word having realised how easy it is to be decieved by Satan and to be distracted from God's purposes. I've just been watching Marc Driscoll on You Tube and it's amazing how he quotes Bible references off the top of his head - I wanna be able to do that!

Lord, you are the whole reason behind existence! You created everything and you sustain everything. You made us out of love and you want us to love you back. I am desperate for you. I wanna know you better and know your truth. Your truth alone sets us free! Let your Word be firm in my heart so that I can know your faithfulness wherever I stand and will have the wisdom to help and lead others in your truth. I pray Lord, fill your church with faithand love. Fill us with a hunger for your Word and thirst for your Spirit so that we will have understanding and be able to live lives that honour you and make us more like you every day.
