A few days back, we talked about lessons from the story of creation. We talked about the power of words and how it’s important for you to speak the right words at all times.
We talked about the importance of light and how we need it, even in our daily lives. How it’s important to standout and be a problem solver.
We also talked about how God evaluated everything that was created and that he himself confirmed it was good. We learned that excellence is God’s style and we as his children should live with that standard.
Today we’ll be going further into the story of creation and picking out basic lessons from what God did.
Let’s read through verses 5-12 and see what we can learn.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. Genesis 1:5 – 12 KJV
4. God is a God of Order.
After he made the two great lights, he placed one in the day and the one in the night.
As children of God, we should learn to bring order and arrangements to whatever we do.
Proper arrangements makes us different and it’s a good standard to show the world that we truly are of God.
Beyond the light, God worked on the water and the earth, he divided them beautifully such that one doesn’t interrupt the other.
Let’s continue with this tomorrow, there are still a lot to learn from the story of creation. Have a blessed day.
