Creation

Epiphany

Heaven is yours! The earth too! The world and all that fills it— you made all of it! North and south—you created them! ~ Psalm 89:11-12 (CEB)

Through Christ God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. ~ Colossians 1:16 (NLT)
Creator God,

THANKS: Thank you for creating the world which I enjoy. Thank you for being in charge of it all.

REGRETS: Sometimes I treat creation as though it were all for me. I don't take very good care of what you have made. I waste the water, the air, and the land. I repent of my irresponsibility.

INTERCESSION: Please help me to take your creation as seriously as I take you. Change me into an environmentalist motivated by a desire for your creation agenda.

PURPOSE: I'm going to look at the world in a whole new way.

Amen.
