7 Day Devotional Day One

"And I am Certain that God, who begun the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Jesus Christ returns." (Philippians 1:16) In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. That is how the bible begins. If you were to read the entire creation story, you would find that God didnt do it all in one day or with one snap of his fingers. It was a process. What would have happened if God would have cut the process short? How would the story be different if God stopped on day four and never added bird, fish, animals, or man? What would the results have been if He skipped day three and never added dry land? Would it be a water world? The good news is that God followed through and completed the process. Just as creating the earth was a process, your spiritual development will be a process. There is no shortcut to a healthy relationship with God. You must take it step by step, day by day, moment by moment. What steps have you taken in your walk with Christ? What is the next step you need to take? What is keeping you from taking the next step? (Read Genesis Chapters 1-2)
