Genesis 1:14. Signs of the Times

on

Genesis 1:14 “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years;” 

    Not only did God divide the light from the darkness, he put signs in the sky to call attention to that fact, and simultaneously mark time. The only unit of time (apart from the fractions of a day, counted in minutes and seconds) that did not receive a dedicated sign in the heavenly lights and bodies was the week! Did God establish any sign to mark the seven-day week? If not, why not? Tuck that question away, and keep reading! What about lights to signal the ending of time for this earth? If God marked the beginning of time with so many signs, wouldn't it stand to reason that the end of time would be indicated by no lesser display?

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).
