Colossians 1:15-16

I hope you are doing well my friend. Avery is 16 weeks old today, I can't believe how the time goes by. She is growing so much. I look forward to what is ahead for us and what God has in store. Pray as we seek His will. Thank you for those prayers. Be blessed

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him.

Colossians 1:15-16

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever both in who He is and who He will forever be. Our Lord existed before all things came into being, for He always was, just as the Father always was. It has to be one of the most difficult things for us to get a hold of, as well as one of the most important truths about Christ; Jesus and God are One. The term ‘firstborn’ means that he was always there before anything else, there was nothing before Him.

All of creation was created through Jesus and for Jesus. Everything we see and know exists by His will and command. He created all the powers and authorities of the universe. Long before the manager and the New Testament, there was Christ Jesus, for He always was. How awesome that truth is to know.

Our Lord God also has no opposite, or comparison. Therefore you cannot have an equal to Him, nor can the enemy be anything close to Him. He is greater than all, for He is Almighty and wonderful, powerful and glorious. This is the Lord who died for His people to save them from sin. He is the One who desires relationship with us daily. Our Creator, Our Lord. We were created to be with Him and to know Him, as He wants us to be with Him forever.
