Let There Be Light and There Was Light

Genesis 1:1-3
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

Before God spoke his powerful words, the earth was without form and empty, and in deep darkness. This is a mirror reflection of our hearts before we meet God. We are born with the seed of sin, born with our hearts disconnected to God. What is the reason why people engage in constant pursuit of happiness in their lives? People live life doing their best to live happy lives but only to feel more empty inside as times passes by. So they try to fill that void however they know with the things of the world, through fulfilling the desires of the flesh. But in the end, does any of that truly fill that void? We just end up in repetitive cycle only to add on more and more till that void is filled but never quite get there. That is because, our flesh cannot be fulfilled through the things of the world. Just like the earth in Genesis chapter 1, my heart was once filled with extreme darkness and empty. Then one day, the light entered my heart and all that darkness and emptiness, disappeared instantly, just as God spoke his word to the earth and said, "Let there be light." All the darkness just disappeared. If we take a moment to look around us at the world God has given us, how amazing is it? All things were given to us so that we can sustain life. All of this was created when God spoke his words to a world that was full of darkness, emptiness and void. Look how perfect and beautiful this world turned out. In the same way God wants to work inside of every single one of our hearts. No matter who we are, what we were like or however we have lived our lives up until now, when the word of God enters into our hearts, there is no one who will not change.

Welcome to CC sangwoosuth.

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ (2 Corithians 4:6).

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:14).

• Gen 1:4a . . And God saw the light, that it was good

God didn't see the light until He said let there be light; meaning of course
that natural light didn't exist until God made it.

God declared that light is good; but He didn't declare that darkness is good.
In point of fact, darkness typically represents bad things in the Bible; while
light typically represents good things. It's been a rule of thumb from the
very beginning.

NOTE: It's curious to me that most Bible students have no trouble readily
conceding that everything else in the first chapter of Genesis is natural, e.g.
the cosmos, the earth, the atmosphere, water, dry land, the Sun, the Moon,
the stars, aqua life, winged life, terra life, flora life, and human life.

But when it comes to light they choke; finding it impossible within
themselves to believe that Genesis just might be consistent in its description
of the creative process. I mean, if all those other things are natural, why
wouldn't the light be natural too? In point of fact, without natural light,
planet Earth would become a cold dead world right quick.
