Due to an Act of God

Genesis 1:9
9Then God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.
God showed me something yesterday that I had always overlooked but I THANK GOD for illuminating it! In many contracts, including those you overlook everyday whether it be for a plane ride, trip, performance, etc, there is a legal term that appears called, "Act of God". The clause basically eliminates said party from responsibility of enforcing the contractual agreement should something happen outside of their control. The circumstances that are eligible to make the contract null and void include a flood, tornado, or any other occurrence that man cannot cause to happen. So even companies are acknowledging that there is someone above who has control over what happens in the earth that they themselves cannot touch.

So what does this have to do with Genesis? EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Genesis is the first book of the Bible. It is in the Old Testament. It is where God begins to create the earth by speaking it into existence. God thinks it, says it and it is so. The scripture above where He creates water is relevant because flooding is considered an "Act of God". In accepting "Acts of God",  it is also being accepted that God created the earth!! So if God created the earth and "Acts of God" are happening regularly, why are so many taking God for a joke whether it be His Holy Word written, the preached Word, Jesus and the Holy Spirit? Why are so many attempting to control situations when simply put, only an "Act of God" can make it so or not so? If companies that provide us services everyday can admit there are situations outside of their control, why can't you?
