The Majesty of God and His Eternal Plan

God is great and mighty in power and knowledge, the Creator of the universe and all it contains. He made the heavens and everything within them. He also created hellfire and the demons residing there, even Satan himself. He is the source of all powers, rulers, and spiritual authorities. In His infinite greatness, all creatures, whether heavenly or earthly, instinctively sought their Creator, and the beings in heaven, having found Him, said, "Let us worship Him." Witnessing His unmatched power and glory, they were unable to cease their praise.

The story of God, the heavens, and the earth is profoundly deep and marvelous. God created all beings and gave them life. The celestial beings, upon realizing they were created by God and beholding Him on His throne, were filled with wonder and joy to dwell with the King. Before humanity was created, the celestial beings already existed, and Satan had already rebelled against God. Despite this rebellion, the essence of it all reveals God’s immeasurable grandeur.

With a single command, God can dry the oceans, and His presence is surrounded by thunderous lights and radiant beams illuminating His throne. Among His creations, Lucifer was made the highest order of angels, endowed with beauty and power surpassing all others. Known as the bearer of God's light, Lucifer led celestial choirs, and whenever he sang praises, the heavens joined in harmony, bringing delight to God's spirit.

However, Lucifer began to admire his beauty and power, desiring worship for himself. Over time, pride grew in his heart, and he sought to lead the heavenly hosts astray, forming a rebellion against God. Millions of angels followed him, deceived by his authority. Finally, God commanded Archangel Michael to lead the heavenly armies against Lucifer, igniting a war in heaven. Though Lucifer was of higher rank, God empowered Michael with unmatched strength and wisdom to prevail.

After a fierce battle, Lucifer—now Satan—was cast out of heaven along with his followers. Heaven was cleansed of rebellion, but Satan vowed to corrupt humanity, seeking to lead them into the torment of hell. His hatred for God's creation drove him to deceive mankind, introducing sin and immorality. During Noah's time, the world was filled with corruption, but Noah, a righteous man, found favor with God. Through him, God preserved humanity and vowed never to destroy the world again by flood.

Yet Satan persisted, sending demons to possess and corrupt humanity. These fallen angels incited immorality, targeting those with gifts to lead them astray. Despite these attacks, God’s love for humanity remained steadfast. Recognizing the need for redemption, God sought a holy being to save mankind. When silence filled heaven, Jesus, the Son of God, willingly offered Himself. The heavens rejoiced, declaring Him worthy.

Jesus’ humility astonished all, for He, through whom all things were created, chose to take on human flesh and die for the sins of the world. This profound act of love granted Him the name above all names—Jesus, which means "Yahweh saves." His name carries power, salvation, and authority.

Even as a child, I experienced the power of Jesus’ name. In dreams, when evil spirits attacked, calling upon His name drove them away. This name is a testament to the unmatched power of God’s love and His eternal plan to redeem and restore His creation.

The story of God is a call to worship, a reminder of His sovereignty, and a testimony of His boundless love. In every trial and triumph, let us proclaim His greatness: "God of Armies, God of gods, Christ Jesus, be praised forever. You are the greatest spiritual being of all time."
