The Principle Underlying Creation Is That God Sends Forth His Spirit And Creation Happens.
Scripture: Psalm 104:28-35
In Psalm 104:28-35 we are told, “May the glory of the Lord endure forever; May the Lord rejoice in His works. He looks on the earth, and it trembles; He touches the hills, and they smoke. I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the Lord. May sinners be consumed from the earth, And the wicked be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul! Praise the Lord!” This Psalm speaks of God\’s creation and His ability to provide for it. Then it comes to verse 30 where we are told that the principle underlying creation is that God sends forth His Spirit and creation happens. This is how He renews the face of the earth.
When His creation reaches fullness of iniquity, then He consumes a wicked population as in Sodom and other judgments and the wicked are taken away. Note that this earth is full of many things that are wrong and the innocent, if not prayerful, are also affected. Romans 8:22 says even the creation travails for the church to enter true stewardship. Because of tradition, the church has not prayed judicially. The church prays mercy and enables the wicked to continue their destruction. The truth is that we are to pray that the creative Spirit of God will in fact take away the wicked and remove them. The Davidic Psalms present a real picture of how God functions and operates with His people who pray justice.
Meditation and Prayer.
It is totally dependent on the Lord to bring about that unprecedented leap in status, authority, anointing and grace, ability wisdom and other gifts. He does this when you have entered the place of rest, lest you say it is your strength or intellect that caused you to experience that level of translation. It is an act of the complete grace of God.
- Pray that you will learn to rest in the Lord. Ask Him to teach you to work in rest, to operate in rest and to understand that your role is to merely restore, rebuild, renew, replenish that which He has already finished doing. You do it in rest. (Psa 95:6-11, 4:11)
