We must be thankful and grateful for the understanding its not something we want to underestimate. God created our belief. Little children you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he that is in the world. 1 John 4.4. The devil attempts to remove that blessing through sin and being human this still occurs. The greater our relationship with God the less we sin, the more blessed our lives will be. The easier the trials and test of this present evil world are too bear. Happy feast of tabernacles 2020 we ever you are around the World.

To me this verse is self explained. God is God !!! He created all things but He formed man from the dust of the earth !!! Praise God for all His wonderful works !!!

This scripture is radical. All things were made by GOD for GOD. Everything from the physical to the spiritual. Religions, humans, nature, storms,modern inventions, all create by GOD for GOD. Genesis says he create the universe out of void. He created man from dirt. Man was created to take care of GOD 'S creations. To worship and praise GOD. NOW we have the gospel of CHRIST, WE ARE supposed to spread the good news of the gospel. JESUS says his yoke is easy and his burden is light. We are the creation of GOD created for GOD. GOD is love! We are created for love by love. Not the love of the world but the love of GOD. I say to you LOVE AND BE LOVED.
