Hebrews 11:3
A weekday morning devotional series written by Aaron Marcarelli and hosted by Chad McBeam
“By faith we understand that the world has been created by the word of God so that what is seen has not been made out of things that are visible.”
Hebrews 11:3 NASB2020
The writer of Hebrews in this Faith journey that he takes us on in Chapter 11, begins at the beginning of creation and speaks to why creation happened the way it did. It was created by “the word of God”. This was so for two reasons:
1. “so that what is seen has not been made out of things that are visible.” Thus with creation God created faith also.
2. Creation happened with the word of God. Which draws us immediately and always to Christ. For John writes in his Gospel Chapter 1 verses 1-3 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being.”
Therefore, even creation itself was meant to point us to and draw us towards Christ.
It is so awesome when God reveals truth and connection through His Holy Spirit. God will show us the way and reveal His truth to us, if we humble ourselves and seek His will. We must have faith that His will and truth of are perfect for us. We must Focus on our faith and love for Christ no matter the circumstances, since creation Christ is the direction God has pointed us towards.
Lord thank you for loving us! Thank you for your perfect plan. Thank you for pointing us towards Christ and his perfect sacrifice, resurrection and ascension. Help us to rely on the Holy Spirit and have the faith to seek and serve you always and forever. We pray all these things in Jesus Name Amen…
Have a fantastic weekend!
