Genesis 2:1 God is a Finisher


 Genesis 2:1 “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.”  

How many times have you started a project only to give up on it before it was finished? Thank God He is not like us. Our God is a Finisher. He sees the big picture as well as every detail. He knows when His work is complete, not like me when I took some painting lessons and kept fussing over my piece: a stroke here, another stroke there until my teacher had to tell me I was done. “Just sign your name on it, that’s all that’s missing” 

As in creation, so in salvation. Although it may seem to you like it is taking forever, God will finish His work on this earth, and He will “cut it short in righteousness” (Romans 9:28). If you make it your study to submit to and cooperate with Him, God will finish His work in you, too! He is willing and waiting to restore you and rewrite your character with His own name.

The Word of God is bread from heaven. God sent it, but we must gather it, appreciate it, digest it, and live by it. These days it is increasingly scarce. Many are starving for it and don't know it because they keep feasting on bad bread that doesn't satisfy. But if we would learn to carefully gather up the fragments of the True, Heavenly Bread of Life, we would always enjoy a feast of crumbs, because even God's crumbs are miracles mighty to save (Mark 7:24-30). ESPAÑOL: La Palabra de Dios es pan del cielo. Dios lo envió, pero debemos recogerlo, apreciarlo, digerirlo y vivir por él. Hoy en día es cada vez más escaso. Muchos están muriendo de hambre por falta de él sin saberlo porque se alimentan de pan falso que no satisface. Pero si aprendiéramos a recoger cuidadosamente los fragmentos del Verdadero Pan Celestial, Pan de Vida, siempre disfrutaríamos de un banquete de migajas, porque hasta las migajas de Dios son milagros poderosos para salvar (Marcos 7:24-30).
