Acts 4:5–14 — God’s Voice: Creation and Wonder

In his testimony to us of himself, the first thing we see God do is speak. In the world that we live in, words are imprecise descriptors of “the real stuff” like atoms and energy and space and time. But the Bible tells us something truer and deeper than that: words matter. When God speaks, He speaks with power and with authority. He speaks and kingdoms topple. He speaks and crops grow. He speaks and the universe is made.
