Based on my study of Genesis 1:1, I believe Godโs message to Adam was this:
โI have already given you everything you would ever need. I made the heavens and the earth with you in mind. I know what you need. Trust what I have given you, and trust Me.โ
Before God asked mankind for anything, He gave mankind everything. God intended for us to live from trust in what He has already provided, not fear about what we might lack.
John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
2 Peter 1:3 (NLT) By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.
1 John 4:16 (NLT) We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.
I believe that the greatest act of love is the act of giving, for in the beginning, the first thing that God did was give us everything that we would ever need to live a godly life. But not only that, God gave us His best.
