History Of Creation

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Genesis 1:1

Learning 1 : God is the creator, he knows the plan, he knows what to do first and what to do after that.

Day 1 : Light - Day And Night.

Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
Genesis 1:3

Learning 2 : He orders and it happens. He is Lord God Almighty.

And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:3‭-‬5

Learning 3 : God saw light is good and he seperated it from darkness. It reflects like, God's people are seperated even though they are in the same world with ungodly people.

Day 2 : Heaven

Then God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” Thus 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. So the evening and the morning were the second day.
Genesis 1:6‭-‬8

Learning 4: God is the wonderful Engineer and master of Mechanics. God is marvellous in planning and execution. His wisdom is unsearchable.

Day 3 : Earth, Sea and Vegetation.

Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into 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 He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

Learning 5 : God reviews the work and sees it as good. Quality check or validation is important for anything we do by our own selves.

Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so.

Learning 6 : Potential is inside - As a man has sperms to reproduce, As fruits have seeds, As the holy spirit resides in the Godly people to strengthen the inner person.

And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it  was good. So the evening and the morning were the third day.
Genesis 1:9‭-‬13

Day 4 : Sun, Moon and The Stars

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so. Then 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. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, 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.
Genesis 1:14‭-‬18

Learning 7: Made with a purpose. Sun is to rule day and Moon is to rule night. Commitments and allotments.

Day 5 : Sea creatures and birds for sky.

And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
Genesis 1:22

Learning 8 : Growth is primary purpose of living beings.

Day 6 : Animals and Human

Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Learning 9 : All provisions and comfort is made before the man was made.

Learning 10 : God created human being as a reflection of his own image.

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Learning 11 : Subdue everything except humans.

Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
Genesis 1:26‭-‬28

And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there  is life, I  have  given every green herb for food”; and it was so.

Learning 12 : First man was created as Vegetarians. Ofcourse, Veggies and fruits have sufficient nutrients.

Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good.

Learning 13 : Reviewing - Review during the progress and at the end is a good habit to grow in our lives. God has seen everything and find things are really Good.

So the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Genesis 1:29‭-‬31

Day 7 : Holy day

Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

Learning 14 :  Rest is essential.

Learning 15 : Proper planning of work or task is the crucial step. After that, reviewing is needed during the progression. We can divide the plan into several small steps. At last, resting period is also a part of the creation.

Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it.

Learning 16 : Sunday is the blessed day.

Because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.

Genesis 2:1‭-‬4
