GENESIS 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Beginning

I. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things were created through him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created. John 1:1-3

II. The LORD acquired [developed or obtained or come to have (a particular reputation) as a result of one’s behavior or activities] me at the beginning of his creation, before his works of long ago. I was formed before ancient times, from the beginning, before the earth began. I was born when there were no watery depths and no springs filled with water. Before the mountains were established, prior to the hills, I was given birth — before he made the land, the fields, or the first soil on earth. I was there when he established the heavens, when he laid out the horizon on the surface of the ocean, when he placed the skies above, when the fountains of the ocean gushed out, when he set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate his command, when he laid out the foundations of the earth. I was a skilled craftsman beside him. I was his delight every day, always rejoicing before him. I was rejoicing in his inhabited world, delighting in the children of Adam. Proverbs 8:22-31

III. The heavens were made by the word of the LORD, and all the stars, by the breath of his mouth. Psalms 33:6

IV. For everything was created by him, in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities — all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and by him all things hold together. Colossians 1:16-17

V. And: In the beginning, Lord, you established the earth, and the heavens are the works of your hands. Hebrews 1:10
