Shawn, I know many good men who believe that, but I’ve always thought it catered to Evolution. After all, why would there need to be an age before? Also, assuming you believe there was a pre-adamic race, wouldn’t that put death before sin?

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12)

After God created the heavens and the earth period. They became without form and void. Clearley meaning there was a age before this one.

One more thing on Genesis 1:2, I forgot to mention the fact that the, “Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” This is God’s Holy Spirit. He was involved in creation. If he was there, oh I just wonder what presence He has in our lives. He convicts, He reproves, He corrects, He comforts, He teaches, He inspires, He directs, He prays and He does so many things in our lives. Let us get a hold of what the Holy Spirit does and let us let Him move in our lives and pray that God will work a mighty work in all of us. Amen.

God, in the midst of darkness and chaos stepped out and began to create. But the amazing thing is, how did He do it? He didn’t actually “create” as we make things: with our hands. But He created this universe by His spoken word. What power the Word of God has! And we as humans have the power to put the Word to work in our lives. We don’t do it by prophesying by fore-telling, we do it by forth-telling, by sharing the Word of God with others and sharing the truth with them. Why, why do we spend time witnessing to others. 1) to share the Word of God with them and share with them the plan of salvation so that they may have eternal life. 2) That we may share with others how to be truly set free(John 8:31-32). Only Christ can truly set a person free and He does that through the power of the Holy Ghost and the power of His Word. Praise Him for the Word of God. In closing, I challenge us all to read Psalm 119 to see a description of how great God’s Word really is and to see how powerful it is and to see people’s motivations for staying in it. Amen to God’s Word the Bible!

In the beginning, the earth was formless. But as God began to speak,the formlessness began to take shape.This verse is usually true of every project or program.As you prophetically begin to speak “let there be” to your marriage,academic,finances,family ,children,ministry,etc.,things will begin to take shape.
