Genesis 45:6 For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvesting.

When God gives us warnings and we don’t listen we can be sure that He is going to have to do something drastic for us to stop and listen again!

Why would one verse say harvest would continue and another say it would stop? Because God said the seasons and harvest time would continue and in this case that there would be no appreciable harvest that could be gathered in during that time.

God wants us to listen and when we don’t, He may have to stamp His foot down!

Genesis 8:22 “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease.”

God alone has appointed the time that this earth will remain and He alone controls what will happen after that point and even before it, what lies ahead.

He has promised us that we do not need to worry that this earth will fall apart or that it will be obliterated by some random comet passing by or that it will stop spinning and let us all fly off!

We have His word on this and that is enough for me! He has shown me enough in my past to know that I can wholly trust in Him!

Psalm 119:91 They continue this day according to Your ordinances, For all are Your servants.

The more that scientists discovery about the world the more amazing a place we realise it is and the more of an elaborate story they have to come up with the figure out how it ‘happened’.

We simply need to have faith that God created everything and that it is God that is holding it all together. The laws of physics assume invisible powers that hold things together…

God is in control. Man just wants to try and take control… Allow God to continue showing us how it is done and believe and trust in Him for exactly that!

Matthew 8:13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.

Sometimes it can be hard to accept that certain things happen in life and miracles are one of those things which many people refuse to believe.

This centurion displayed faith in Christ by believing that Jesus was able to do anything. He knew that his men would obey him when he gave orders and he quite expected Jesus to have that sort of ultimate authority, not just on people but on everything.

Accept Jesus as God and believe in His power!
