"Where Were You When I Laid the Foundation of the Earth?

Job 38:4 "Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding.
This is God speaking to Job, but I ask you this question. I ask because of all the disrespect that is given Holy God, and wonder if you really know who know deny! The everyday things we take for granted, the rain, the sun, the moon, the soil, the trees, the water, and I could go on and on, are not just there. They are given or withheld by a sovereign God who has created all things!
Gen.1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Ps.104:5 He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.
Jer.10:12 But God made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
Prov.30:4 Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered up the wind in the hollow of his hands? Who has wrapped up the waters in his cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and the name of his son? Tell me if you know!
His word can be no more plain than this, There is none like the Lord God Almighty!
1 Chr.17:20 There is none like you, O LORD, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Heb.11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.
Rev.4:11"Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created."
1 Cor.8:6 yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.
Col.1:15-17 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Lord God, how majestic is Your name? We can not comprehend You! You are awesome beyond words! Lord, show mercy to those who deny You, open their heart to receive You. Let them see the beauty that is in Your word. Amen
