“It is a mighty support of faith that God creates. He that made all things with a word, what cannot he do? He can create strength in weakness; he can create a supply of our wants. What a foolish question was that, ‘Can he prepare a table in the wilderness?’ (Psalm 78:19). Cannot he that made the world do much more? ‘Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.’ (Psalm 124:8). Rest on this God for help, who made heaven and earth. As the work of creation is a monument of God’s power, so it is a stay of faith. Is thy heart hard? He can with a word create softness. Is it unclean? He can create purity. ‘Create in me a clean heart, O God’ (Psalm 51:10). Is the church of God low? He can create Jerusalem a praise (Isaiah 65:18). There is no such golden pillar for faith to stay upon as a creating power.” - Thomas Watson
