I know most of you already know the creation story from Genesis 1:1-25 but my question for you today is...
Do you know WHY God made everything?
Why did a totally awesome God, who is totally happy in Himself decide to create other things and other creatures?
Seriously take a minute to think about that. Hmmmm.
Well it wasn't because He was lonely.
And it wasn't because he needed something.
He already has everything!! So, WHY?
He already has everything!! So, WHY?
The bible tells us why....
It was out of His overflowing happiness in His incomparable greatness and worth that He created all things.
Everything you see on earth is God displaying HIS GREATNESS and letting you know that HE IS A REALLY BIG DEAL!
And THE MOST SPECIAL PERSON OF ALL!
And THE MOST SPECIAL PERSON OF ALL!
God enjoys displaying how incredible and valuable He is-HIS GLORY-more than anything else. In other words, God created all things to show you how GREAT and SPECIAL HE IS!
It is like the ultimate "SHOW and TELL!" You can see, smell, feel and touch the glory of God!!
Explore Genesis 1:1-25 and underline in your bible what you learn about how special God is and how his glory is revealed to us!
Live Action! - Look at pictures of things God has created. (That should be easy!) and then pray to God thanking Him for what an amazing Creator He is!
•What do you think God wants you to understand about what He is like when you look at what he has made?
(For example, if you saw a dog barking at the door because he hears someone on the other side, what might God be showing us about what He is like?
A Protector! OK! or Always aware of things I'm not aware of. OK! Keep going....just like this.)
•When you see all the things that God has made, what should you say to Him?
(Here's a hint, read Psalm 150!)
Read and talk about Psalm 105:1-3
•What should you do this week when you see something that shows you how Great God is? How can you "make known His deeds?"
•Can you give thanks and praise God right now? Huh? Can you? Can you? I bet you can!!
Dig deeper:
(Always read your bible with a pen and ruler or straight edge to make your lines nice!)
God is the Most Special Person of All
