#62: "The Maker" by Chris August & Psalm 115

Released April 27, 2015 by More Than a Song - Michelle Nezat

 

God is creative. He never tires of finding new ways of speaking to you. This is made so clear through Chris August's song, "The Maker." As we use this song to step into God's Word, may we simultaneously step outside. May we stop, look and listen to the Creator revealing His eternal power and divine nature through His creation.
We can develop a deeper understanding of the Maker by developing our ability to appreciate the masterpiece of creation that the Maker has blessed us with.
On this episode I discuss:

We can see God's invisible qualities through everything God has made - Romans 1:20
The Maker LOVES YOU!
Seeing the familiar in a fresh light
Learning to appreciate the Artist through His masterpieces
Being open to new ways that God wants to speak to you
The Maker has given all of heaven and earth to us to enjoy its beauty - Psalm 115
Rejecting God and trading God's truth for a lie leads to worshiping created things rather than the Creator - Romans 1:18-25
No aspect of creation will ever compare to the expression of love God gave us through the gift of His Son

The first step of stepping out in faith should be to the Word of God

This Week's Challenge

Stop, look and listen to God's creation -- He gave it to us to enjoy its beauty, but wants our response to be worship and trust...not in what has been made, but in the Maker. Read Psalm 115 and then read Romans chapter 1 and then read them again. Ask God to speak to you through His Word this week. Then go outside and take a picture of where you see your Maker this week. I don't care when you're listening to this podcast. Join me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Post pictures of where you saw your Maker today and tag them with #themaker and #morethanasong so we can all come together as a body across this earth that God has blessed us with and experience His voice through His creation!
