Memory Verse:

Hebrews 11:3 ESV
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.
Our memory verse talks about the visible having its origin in the invisible. God, an invisible being, created a visible world, a completely new dimension! After God created the world, He wanted visible stewards to manage it, a second family to image or represent Him on Earth. Today, we are going to hear about the visible beings Jesus created and commissioned to be His hands and feet in His earthly creation and to expand Eden throughout the Earth.
Genesis 1:1 ESV
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Genesis 1:26–28 ESV
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
Genesis 2:8–9 ESV
And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Genesis 2:15 ESV
The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.
Once God created the world, He wanted someone to rule His new creation. Humans were to image God in this new world, being his physical hands and feet, and doing the work He gave them. That work was to be fruitful and multiply! Fill the earth and subdue it! Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the ground. God had planted Eden, and humans were commissioned to fill the rest of the earth and make it just like Eden.
