Clothes for Adam and Eve

Before sending Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden, God clothed them:

21) Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them (Genesis 3:21).

God did not forsake Adam and Eve. Although God was disobeyed, His love and provision is still shown. Glory to God!

For more on this story, refer to Genesis 3:21-24.

God is Sovereign

Life became more difficult for Adam and Eve after they disobeyed God by eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. God acted to show Adam and Eve that He is sovereign and only He is to be obeyed. This is what God said to them:

16) Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

17) And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

18) Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

19) In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return (Genesis 3:16-19).

God's Love for Man

To learn of God is to see His love in action for man from the beginning. God showed His love through the creation of Adam and breathing life into him to make him a living soul (Genesis 2:7). Thus, the gift of life! God showed His love for Adam by providing work and food for him in the Garden of Eden. Adam was allowed to eat of every tree in the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. God saw that it was not good for Adam to be alone, so He created Eve, who was suitable for him.

God's love and provision for man has gone on since the beginning! Let's praise God and thank Him for His love and provision in our lives!

Please refer to Genesis 1 and 2 for more on God's creation story!

God's Creation

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth"(Genesis 1:1). In six days God created Day and Night, Heaven, Earth, Seas, grass, herb yielding seed, fruit tree yielding fruit, sun, moon, stars, fish, fowl, cattle, creeping things and male and female were created in God's image (Genesis 1:2-27). "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day" (Genesis 1:31).

Learn of God and Come to Jesus

It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me (John 6:45).

Remember God in the Tough Times Too!

Prayers to those who are ailing and still crying out to the Lord. God hears your cries. He is with you through your storm:

I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice, and he gave ear unto me (Psalms 77:1).

Find comfort in knowing that God hears you! Find comfort in Psalms 77. In reading it you can witness the spiritual change that came over the ailing person. The person chose to magnify God over the infirmity. Amen! Praise God! Magnify His Name even during the tough times!

Where is the Wind Blowing You?

The verse of John 3:8 has been weighing on my heart:

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

As believers with faith in Christ, we just do not know where the Holy Spirit is going to lead us next. We follow His lead and find comfort in His presence along the way.
