THE CREATIVE POWER OF GOD (6).

*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*

*THE CREATIVE POWER OF GOD (6).*

*Scripture Treasure.*

Matt 26:24 *The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.*

*Insight and Highlight.*

While God blessed His creation to go and multiply, He wished some were not born at all.

*Scripture Commentaries.*

We continue with the second reason that illustrates the creative power of God.

This is that: there are people He creates for destruction.

In Gen 1:27-28, God blessed man that He created in His own image.

He *".....blessed them, and .....said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it:....."*

The creative power of God gave power to man at creation. Man did not have to pray to be blessed this way.

Jesus condemned Judas. He said *".....it had been good for that man if he had not been born.*

This further explains God's regret over some of His creation (ref Gen 6:6).

Jesus' statement was founded on the betrayal of Judas.

Judas was no longer a child of God but had become a child of perdition, John 17:12.

He qualified for Jesus' condemnation because of his betrayal and just like Gen 6:6 says that God regretted He created man and Gen 6:5 says *"....that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.*

Jesus referred to Judas as a devil, John 6:7.

The stories of Satan and Judas tell us how quickly people who were created beautifully can suddenly turn ugly.

Satan was made perfect in beauty and wisdom, adorned with precious stones, and a "seal of perfection" before iniquity was found in him, Ezk 28:12-13.

The story of Judas teaches how someone who followed Jesus for three and a half years turned out to be a devil. The more he drew nearer to Jesus the farther and worse his heart grew.

Jesus chose twelve disciples. Eleven vindicated Jesus's choice of them unto salvation.

Judas proved himself to fulfill the prophecy of betrayal, Matt 26:24, John 13:18.

While the eleven were chosen unto salvation, Judas was chosen for destruction.

People like Judas who are chosen unto destruction are destroyed not because God wanted to destroy them but because they had already destroyed themselves.

You can not destroy God's creative power, you can only destroy your own creative plan for yourself.

Any plan to add more or less to how God created you to be will make you less than how God made you.

*Remorse corner.*

People who draw near to Satan will become more like Satan until they are totally him.

*Call unto Word action.*

Anyone who touches or meddle with God's creation either wilfully or mistakenly, will die by correction/judgment.

*The Christian clarion duty.*

You can not be against God's creation and hope to continue in the likeness of His image.

*Prayer.*

Lord help me to live according to Your will and in the likeness of Your image, in Jesus name.

Good morning and have a blessed day.

God bless you.

Shalom.
