It should never cease to amaze us when we consider how God created the universe out of nothing. He simply said, “Let there be…”, and there it was. Light, sky, land and sea, plants, sun, moon and stars, animals and finally mankind—God just had to say the word and they appeared.

I don’t have that kind of power. Sometimes I’ll be leaning back in my recliner in front of the television in the evening and I’ll say, “Let there be ice cream.” Occasionally, after a couple of minutes, a bowl of ice cream will appear in my hands. Other times, in reply to my command, I hear a voice saying, “Get it yourself!”

We don’t have anywhere near the power that God has. Heb.11:3 says, “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”

Let’s take some time today to look at God’s creation and marvel at his awesome power.
