Where was God living before he created heaven? – Apostle Johnson Suleman clarifies
The General Overseer of the Omega Fire Ministry, Apostle Johnson Suleman has provided an answer to the trending topic on social media that if God made Heaven, where was He living before He created Heaven?
A Nigerian pastor, Abel Damina had in one of his sermons said God does not live in heaven.
He backed his claim from Genesis 1:1, which says; “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth…” he wondered where God was living before he created both heaven and earth.
However, Apostle Suleman seems to have found an answer to the question.
He said, “In the Bible, when they could not find Jesus, they began to look for Him among His friends. To look for God among men is a wrong step. To look for God, you most look for Him in His Word. That is where He lives.
“God does not live in Heaven, God operates from Heaven. Heaven is His office. Do you sleep in your office? No! So when Jesus said our Father who is in Heaven, He wasn’t saying that God stays in Heaven. He was saying that God operates from there.
The Bible said Heaven is your throne. Do you sleep on the throne? Now answer these questions. Who made Heaven? If God made Heaven, where was He living before He created Heaven? If God created the Heavens and the Earth in the beginning, He must be living somewhere. Therefore, God lives in His Word and not Heaven”.
