It is amazing to consider what God is capable of. There is nothing that is too difficult for Him. God created the heavens and the earth. He made the moon, the stars, the ocean, and land. He made diamonds, gold, silver, and other precious jewels as well as the giant sequoias, and the long-loving bristlecone pines. He made simple organisms such as single celled bacteria, as well as the complex human body.
The God of the universe created all things. Paul attest to this in Colossians 1:16: " For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him."
For all the achievements of mankind, we have never created anything as beautiful as God has. Yet, God's creation of the world and everything in it was not His greatest achievement. Octavious Winslow writes, "The Redemption of man is the achievement of God... God spoke the universe out of nothing, and formed man from the dust of the earth, but in there Redemption of man, He became incarnate in the person of His beloved Son, exhausting heaven of its richest treasure, and conferring that treasure upon man in the person of Jesus the Savior, 'His unspeakable gift.'"
What is the most amazing is that this is OUR God. We get the chance to not only serve, but love, and have fellowship with the One who not only created, but rules the physical and spiritual realms. This amazing powerful being is not just an acquaintance, or even simply a friend or lover. Our God, is our Almighty Redeemer. There is nothing that He cannot redeem us from, by sheer magnitude of His will
