The Very Word of God

The Breath of Life

By the word of the lORD the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host (Psalm 33:6). By his spoken word, by God's spoken utterances he created a universe out of nothing. By his very breath and vibration of tone in his voice he spoke all things. into existence. For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm (v.9). The LORD God formed the man out of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature (Genesis 2:7) .From the creation of the world to the creation of mankind, made in the image of God, by His spoken word all things were made. This God this God it is that holds us in his hands.  His word breaths life. His word breaths healing. His word is true. His word! The very breath of life.

Lord, we come to you with a heart that is overwhelmed by your grace and mercy. By your very breath you breathed the breath of life into mankind. It is by you that we exist. You hold us in your hands. Your love covers us. For you came down to us, born as a babe, to make a way for us. You took our sin upon your shoulders and carried them on the cross. You died and rose again so that we, as sinners, may be redeemed. Those who believe in you have eternal life. Thank you Lord for giving of yourself. As I think back on the Scriptures there was not a time in history that you were not thinking of us. You have always had your children on your mind. You You alone know the plans you have for us. O LORD, my God, how magnificent are your ways. May all our praise and worship come back to you. May we with humble hearts acknowledge you as our LORD and Savior. You are our sovereign LORD and I give my worship to you. Thank you for Jesus Christ. Thank you for loving us. It is in Jesus name I pray. Amen.
