God first created the Earth in Genesis 1:1, which nobody had details of how it was until it became void and formless. So, the actual creation story from Genesis 1:6-25 talks about how God fixed the formlessness and voidness situation of the first Earth that was destroyed. Now, let’s have a look at how God made the first world.
It takes a lot of work to keep your spiritual fervour (fire) as a minister so you can serve the Lord. Once you neglect this work and prioritise ministry over it, then the stress and burnout begin to happen. To invest in taking care of your spiritual health, I recommend a few things from scripture to you, which, when you implement them, will help you immensely. Take a read.
What comes to mind when you hear the instruction “Let there be light” as you read Genesis 1:3-5? Maybe, to you, it’s about God distinguishing light from darkness. But I think it is more than a mere creation story that several people skim. That is why I am glad to write this article. I hope you enjoy it.
Have you proved how the Earth became formless and void in Genesis 1:2? You’ve probably read that scripture several times and struggled to understand it. Today, there’s an answer for you.
Do you know that no matter how tall a tree grows, its roots remain intact in the ground? In the same way, when you are firmly rooted in the Lord, it will help you stay faithful to Him no matter how high your feat in life gets, either now or in the future.
Did you know that no matter your age, you are still a child of God? And since that is so, God will graciously give you all things if you ask Him.
There was God before anything existed. And because God has no past, nobody, including you and me, can trace when He started existing. For the atheists out there questioning this, let me tell you that you are not going to get any reasonable answer to justify when God began existing. However, there is one principle I can help you accept: that there is God. It’s called the principle of evidence.
In remedy to walking according to the flesh, following the directions of the Holy Spirit should be the hallmark of every child of God. God is good. He doesn’t want you to always live to battle with mental struggles. He wants you to be effective in your walk of faith.
Jesus doesn’t want you to live worrying about what to eat, drink and wear. Why? Because it’ll make you think so shallowly of yourself and put your life in survival mode. Meanwhile, He called you to impact many.
Your eye is the window to your soul and brain. That implies that what you see and watch affects how you think, whether you like it or not. There are some things that are not good for your eyes to watch. So it is better not to watch it rather than watch for your mental sanity to be affected.
Jesus never struggled to convince people to follow Him. In fact, He even turned down some people’s requests to follow Him after they gave Him excuses (see Luke 9:57-62). If you are a leader and you are struggling to rally people around you to push God’s divine vision on board, you must pray for that spiritual gift because you need it badly.
Because the world is under constant development, there will be new inventions that will try to take away the people of God’s allegiance. And because of that, there shall be a scarcity of hearing sound doctrine teaching, not because they won’t be available, but because many won’t listen to such people.
