Genesis 1:4 Divide Light from Darkness

on

 


Genesis 1:4 “And God saw the light that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.” 

    Separation and division is not always negative (see also Hebrews 4:12). It was an important part of a perfect creation in more than one instance. In verse six and seven God divides the waters from the waters, creating the firmament in between them, and in verse 14 He further marked the division of night from day placing the sun moon and stars as signs. Indeed, it is impossible to create design without the essential aspects of order and organization which necessarily make use of separation and division. The permanent blending of light and darkness is not the work of God. It wasn’t at creation, and it is not today. The shades of gray either pass away to blackness or give place to the light in its splendor. Which will it be in your life today?

The Word of God is bread from heaven. God sent it, but we must gather it, appreciate it, digest it, and live by it. These days it is increasingly scarce. Many are starving for it and don't know it because they keep feasting on bad bread that doesn't satisfy. But if we would learn to carefully gather up the fragments of the True, Heavenly Bread of Life, we would always enjoy a feast of crumbs, because even God's crumbs are miracles mighty to save (Mark 7:24-30). ESPAÑOL: La Palabra de Dios es pan del cielo. Dios lo envió, pero debemos recogerlo, apreciarlo, digerirlo y vivir por él. Hoy en día es cada vez más escaso. Muchos están muriendo de hambre por falta de él sin saberlo porque se alimentan de pan falso que no satisface. Pero si aprendiéramos a recoger cuidadosamente los fragmentos del Verdadero Pan Celestial, Pan de Vida, siempre disfrutaríamos de un banquete de migajas, porque hasta las migajas de Dios son milagros poderosos para salvar (Marcos 7:24-30).
