Our chaos, a pre-requisite for God’s new creation

“In the beginning God created heaven and earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep water” (Genesis1:1‭-‬2)

If you needed one word to describe the times we live in, CHAOS would be that word. And for our future, formless and dark would be the best description. That’s exactly how it was at the beginning when the Lord began His work of creation. And that is the way things appear just before our God creates something new.

The first thing God would do in bringing anything new is to shed His light on our darkness, the light of His word. For without light there is no life and hope . “And God said, let there be light and there was light” (Genesis1:3).

What word has the Lord spoken on your situation? That is the only hope for a new creation. Chaos, darkness and formlessness find shape in the light of God’s word.
