God Sustains His Creation (including us) Despite Satan’s Efforts to Ruin It

Winter waterfall

Psalm 34:19 (NET1) 19  The godly face many dangers, but the LORD saves them from each one of them.

Psalm 23:4 (NET1) 4  Even when I must walk through the darkest valley, I fear no danger, for you are with me; your rod and your staff reassure me.

Isaiah 43:2 (NET1) 2  When you pass through the waters, I am with you; when you pass through the streams, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not harm you.

Isaiah 49:13 (NET1) 13  Shout for joy, O sky! Rejoice, O earth! Let the mountains give a joyful shout! For the LORD consoles his people and shows compassion to the oppressed.

All of creation was created to glorify God.  God intended that we would join the created world in reflecting the beauty and strength of His magnificent character.  Pain and trouble are the graffiti that Satan scrawls across the face of God’s Glory.  Joseph Stowell (101 Quotable Christians)
