God speaks today Wednesday | April 9, 2025
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
(Exodus 3:14)And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
(Colossians 1:17) Jesus Christ is the very platform that supports all that exists
The apostle Paul emphasizes that Jesus Christ is before all things and that everything subsists in Him. This means that Jesus is not only the Creator but also the Sustainer of all that exists, actively involved in holding, maintaining, and managing the universe. The Bible teaches a God who is fully involved in His creation, unlike the philosophy of deism that suggests God created everything but is distant from it. John uses the Greek word "logos" to suggest that Jesus is the unitive principle that gives coherence and meaning to the world. Jesus Christ, the foundation of creation, became flesh and dwelt among us, and now lives in our hearts when we invite Him to be Lord and King of our lives. Confessing Jesus as the Sustainer and Creator of our own lives gives it meaning, coherence, foundation, and purpose.
