What does the Bible say about God's power over nature?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible shows that only God has authority over nature, as evidenced by Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4:35-41.
In Mark 4:35-41, we witness Jesus' divine authority as He calms a storm with a single command: 'Peace, be still.' This act reveals not only His power over the natural elements but also affirms His identity as God. Throughout Scripture, God's sovereignty over creation is emphasized; for example, in Job 38, God questions Job about the creation and control of the universe, asserting that such power belongs solely to Him. This narrative highlights that Jesus, as both God and man, demonstrates this authority through His actions, thereby confirming His divine nature.
