God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are the Creator.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth…The Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. (Genesis 1:1-2)
All things came into being through [Christ]. And apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. (John 1:3)
For by [Christ] all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. (Colossians 1:16)
What God says about Himself
When the LORD answered Job, His rant focused on Himself as the all-knowing, all-powerful Creator.
“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?”
“Have you ever commanded the morning?”
And on and on for more than 100 verses! (See Job 38-41)
Fundamental to Everything
Belief in God as the Creator, our Creator, fundamentally affects everything.
When we see Him as Creator, we come to know something about His infinite power, knowledge, wisdom, and immorality.
When we see Him as Creator, we see His right over us, and how we should live our lives. We see our failure, our need for salvation, and His provision.
When we see Him as Creator, it affects our total worldview.
When we see Him as Creator, we see ourselves as created beings, and align ourselves under Him.
When we see Him as Creator, we know we owe Him everything.
When we see Him as Creator, and we are His children, Christ-followers, we know He is our help and our hope.
Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth. (Psalm 124:8)
Declare the Glory of God
Many of the statements of praise and worship through both the Old and New Testaments refer to God the Creator.
Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created these stars, the One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, not one of them is missing. (Isaiah 40:26)
Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created. (Revelation 4:11)
Then the angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it… (Revelation 10:5-6)
The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. (Psalm 19:1)
Let the redeemed of the LORD say so. (Psalm 107:2)
Praise the Creator—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Praise the Creator, who made everything from nothing, revealing His presence and His glory. You, Almighty God, demonstrated Your absolute power, infinite knowledge and wisdom. As Your created being, I praise You with relief and joy that You are in charge of it all. I am Yours.
