IDEAS PROVOKED GOD

The first thing that provoked God to action was the idea of making a man in his own image and after his own likeness. The angels are used to God who sits on his throne and receives worship but they hadn’t seen God being so busy for six days.

God does not need time neither does he stay in time but for the purpose of revelation, he subjected himself to time- his creation so that he can reveal purpose to man after creation. In eternity (both eternal past and eternal future), it was and is impossible to separate one event from the other.

Ecclesiastes 3:1

God created time before creating the earth just so he could separate one purpose from the other. The ideas God had about his creation has actually revealed so much to us today of the things God has in himself.

God has never been nervous trying to perfect everything he was making for man. After each creation, he would sit back and evaluate to see if it is good. This means that God was willing to remake or recreate everything in case it was not good enough.

What scale did God use to measure the goodness of his creation? God was obviously not creating for himself, he was creating for man but man was not made until the sixth day. So how did God know that what he has created was good for man?

God was the creator and also the evaluator. Meaning, if the creation was good for the creator, then it is and will be good for man. He will create and sit back to evaluate if he (God) is pleased with what he has made. Once he was pleased, he was sure that man would be pleased. The reactions of God to the idea of making man in his image has brought forth so much revelation of who God is
