Created vs. Form —Your Real Power Is Within - Be Still & Know

Let’s get something straight: God didn’t look at the world and go, “Uh-oh… this looks messy, better fix it.” Nope. He just spoke it into existence. Boom. Light. Sky. Oceans. Birds that clearly had attitude problems from the start. And by the sixth day, He casually said, “Let’s make woman and man in our image, after our likeness…” (Gen. 1:26). And here we are, walking around like, “Okay… but does this outfit make me look like Him?” Honey… no. That’s not what this means.

There’s a huge difference between something being created and something being formed—and understanding this will change the way you see your life, your power, and even your Monday mornings.

When something is created, it’s an idea. A vision. A divine blueprint. You know it’s possible, you feel it in your soul, but it hasn’t manifested yet. That’s why faith is so important—it’s the substance of things hoped for. You can’t see it, touch it, or Instagram it yet, but honey, it’s there. It exists in the unseen. Your dreams, your calling, your next-level glow—all of that starts in the created realm.

Being formed, on the other hand, is when the idea starts to take shape in the physical world. You can see it. You can touch it. You can test-drive the car. Walk through the house. Try on the dress. Taste the success. This is where the divine blueprint meets reality. And yes, sometimes the formed version doesn’t look exactly like the created vision—you might need a few tweaks, a little seasoning—but the essence? Still yours. Still divine. Still unstoppable.

Here’s where it gets juicy: understanding this difference means you stop doubting yourself when the vision hasn’t “arrived.” It means you stop comparing your formed version to someone else’s highlight reel. You start living in faith and expectation, knowing your created vision is real, even if it’s not yet visible. And when it’s formed? You walk into it fully confident, fully prepared, fully YOU—because your essence never changes, whether in creation or in form.

Think about it like this: God created the universe with a word. Light, sky, oceans, birds with attitude problems—boom! That was creation. But then He formed humans out of dust, gave them features, personalities, and quirks—that was formation. And the real you? Your essence, your “I Am,” your divine power—was created first. It’s eternal. It’s unshakable. It’s yours before anyone ever touches the surface.

So here’s your reminder: nurture the created. Trust it. Speak it. Pray over it. And when the formed version finally arrives, step into it fully—heels first if you like. Drive the car. Walk through the house. Try on the dream. Because the created and the formed together? That’s where your power, your feminine essence, your destiny come alive. Your power is found when you be still. Yeah, I said it. Be still. Sit down. Close your eyes. Stop scrolling. And know… that I Am.

Psalm 46:10 says it loud and clear: “Be still, and know that I am God.” But let’s be honest—how many of us actually want to be still? We’re hustling, posting, comparing, grinding… basically caffeinated squirrels in a hurricane. But when you pause? That’s when the magic happens. That’s when you remember: you’re not your body. You’re not your feed. You’re not even your student loans (though girl, we’re dealing with those too). You are divinely created, and your “I Am” is what moves mountains, closes doors for the wrong energy, and opens doors for your destiny.

So here’s your challenge, stop for five minutes. Just five. No phone, no emails, no notifications. Be still. Breathe. And meet the real you—the one God created before anyone else had an opinion. That’s your power. That’s your crown. That’s your masterpiece. That’s the side of you the world hasn’t seen yet.

And when people ask why you’re glowing, why you’re unbothered, why your vibe is untouchable, just smile and say, “Oh this? Just been sitting with my Creator, getting to know my ‘I Am.’”

Trust me… they won’t know what hit them.
