You say, “The Nile belongs to me;
I made it for myself.” (Ezekiel 29:2 and Ezekiel 29:9)
These are the words of the Pharaoh of Egypt. He is so proud that he thinks that he is the creator of the Nile. As a result, the Lord punishes him and humbles him; the Lord shows him who is the true creator of the world.
Honoring God as the Creator of the world is critical. The Lord is jealous of others who take credit for His creation. It is necessary to acknowledge Him as Creator in order to give Him glory.
I would appreciate others to put up references where wicked people try to assume that they have created parts of the world. I know that there are others in the Scriptures but I had trouble finding them.
