Creator And Sustainer Of All
How do we know God created everything?
The Bible says that everything that exists was created by God ( Genesis 1:1). The earth and the universe were created by God (Isaiah 48:13, Colossians 1:16). God transcends creation - He is not a part of creation but above it.
How do we know God sustains everything? (What does this mean?)
God not only created everything, but He sustains everything ( Job 12:10, Hebrews 1:3, Colossians 1:16-17, Acts 17:28, Daniel 5:23, Isaiah 45:18). God didn't just start the world and let it run down like a top. If God were to cease to exist, so would the universe. God is involved (immanence) in His creation (Isaiah 57:15)
What significance does that have for us?
Our life is in God's hands. He is in control of everything. We need not worry about what will happen to us when we trust in Him (Philippians 1:6). He knows our weaknesses.
