And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also.
Genesis 1:16
Read: Genesis 1:14-19, 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:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Bible in one year:
Numbers 22:22-24:25,
Psalms 146
Message:
Our God is a God of distinction; He is not an author of confusion. A man chooses to be in confusion when he does not do the right things as ordered by God. When God creates, He creates with precision and purpose. He created lights for a purpose and darkness for another purpose. God commanded:
“And 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:”
Genesis 1:14
Today, the philosophy of relativism is giving the Christian
faith deadly blows, and believers, particularly custodians of the Christian faith (the ministers), are doing almost nothing about it. The miracle of the fourth day saw to it that there would be no confusion on the earth. When God wanted to create man for example, the Bible says:
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”
Genesis 1:27
It is amazing that some theologians and Bible scholars these days say that some men are trapped in women’s bodies and vice versa, hence their craving for same sexual relationship. Please let them know that God does not make mistakes, unless their God is different from the Christian God. The Christian God is a perfect God of distinction. He created the day for work and the night to rest. If by any reason we do not rest in one night, the following day should compensate for that loss of rest. Failure to observe this produces stress, sickness and ultimately death.
Little wonder the life expectancy in the last fifty years has been in decline. The achievement of forty years is realized in fewer than thirty with a price of dying early. The God of distinction in His word commanded:
“Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, and will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.” 2nd Corinthians 6:17-18
The implication of this scripture is that the Church must begin to see life the way God sees it. We have mixed many profane things with sacred ones. We have been engulfed with the idea of relativism. This is not the mind of God. As a believer, how far have you been carried away by the present age? We should not be deceived that the God of distinction has lowered His standard. He has not.
Action Point
Look into your life and see where you have compromised the expected distinctive life you ought to live as a Christian. Repent and come on board the train of holiness again.
