#160 LTLT S5 EP 34: Genesis 1: The Days of Creation Pt. 2

Come on somebody . Hallelujah , you know as much as we like to put on the show like everything is okay , sometimes it's just not , you know . So I want to ask y'all pray for Catherine , just pray for me , amen . But anywho , I am doing what the Lord has called me to do .

I will not allow things that happen in my personal life , things that happen in my life period , to stop what God wants to do in and through me , amen . So if you're ready , I'm ready , so let's go ahead and pray to get into it . Father , we thank you so much for your grace and mercy . Thank you , god , for allowing us another day .

Thank you for allowing every diamond that is here to be able to hear . I pray that , wherever they are , whatever they're doing , it is prosperous and it is something you desire for them to do . I pray God that , as you've drawn us all here into this place to be in your word , I pray God that it will be what you have it to be .

I pray that you would use me to your glory . I pray that I might bring light to your people and help , or bring your light to your people and be a help and bring glory to the kingdom . I love you so much And'm so grateful and so thank you . I'm so thankful , lord .

Also , I ask your forgiveness the things I've said , done and thought that are not pleasing in your sight that at the end of the day we would all be transparent to you . Father , we love you so much . We're so very grateful and so thankful again , but we turn this time over to you In Jesus Christ's name . We do pray , amen , amen , all right , y'all .

So we left off talking in Genesis , we got through verse 5 . We finished verses 1 through 5 . And this is a really , really good time . If this is your first time listening um , to learning to live in truth here at god's diamonds in the rough um , I would encourage you to go and listen to um the teaching on first john .

But if you don't want to do that , go back to yesterday's at least , so so that you start off Genesis , the book of Genesis , fresh and we start it all together , amen . So let's go on forth to verse 6 . And he says so the first day . He says he created what Light ?

Okay , he said because there was , earth , was out , was without form , it was void and it was full of darkness , and so the spirit moved upon the waters , brought forth life . Amen . Then he said let that be light . And then he made the separation between light and darkness and called light day and dark night . Okay , now verse 6 .

He says and god said let there be a firmament in the midst of the water . He says the firmament is like the sky . Yeah , um , I'm gonna read on just so I'm clear , because I studied this particular book quite a few times and I always , uh , tend to get a little , uh , a little bit of confusion that's just being A little bit of confusion with the firmament .

So I was thinking it was the clouds , but I believe it's actually . The firmament is actually heaven , like the separation from heaven and like the clouds and the sky . Because he says and 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 , and the evening and the morning were the second day . Okay , so this firm see beyond the sky . Because really , if I'm going back , I'm trying to go back to my elementary years . You know your clouds , they're filled with water . Um , you know your clouds , they're filled with water .

Um , the clouds also protect us things and from from , really protect us from the sun and when it gets too hot and all of that . Um , the clouds provide us rain and snow and hail , and all of them are different forms of rain , hail , and all of them are different forms of rain .

So when he says , he says that god said let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters and let it divide the waters from the waters . So he says so . Basically , he took heaven , which was his name himself , and pulled it up out of the water and brought it up above the water and separated the water from the water . I hope y'all got it .

I know that sounded like a lot , but I can . Visually , I can picture it and if you just picture it for a moment , you can see it . He pulled himself up out of the water , that's the firmament , pulled it above the water . Okay , this is the clouds of rain and all of that . Then he made a separation in the water , right ?

If I'm reading it right , he says and 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 . So he pulled it out of the middle . Yeah , and then , yeah , and God called the firmament heaven , and the evening and the morning were the second day , okay .

So I hope that everybody got some clarity out of that . I know it sounded confusion , confused , and I hope I didn't make even more confused , but that's the best way I can explain it . Yeah , I'm drinking coffee , y'all , because it's right now it's like six o'clock in the morning , so I'm drinking me some coffee , yeah , and it's good too . I know that's right .

Look Verse 9 . So we're moving on , just so we can get some substance here . Get in the word , because Genesis is quite a long chapter . Yeah , so he says and God said let the waters under heaven be gathered together onto one plate , let dry land appear . And it was so . God called the dry land earth , and the gathering together of the waters Called he seas .

And God saw that it was good , okay , hallelujah . So when we kind of look at the globe , you can picture this . You see all the dry lands , but then you see All of the dry lands are surrounded by the sea and it goes around in a circle . Okay , so it's almost as if you can imagine pulling up corn starches like that .

Like you pull it up , you have a whole lot of corn starch and water together . If you have enough corn starch and not enough water , you can literally pull it from the water .

Only difference is that in this setting everything dry that came out of the water , it's set still , okay , cornstarch will eventually go back and slide back into the water , but it becomes this big clump and the water again it surrounds the land , or the water surrounds the cornstarch , and it's the same as what we hear here , that the water , which is the seed ,

is surrounding the land . Okay , hallelujah . He said , it was good . He said , and God said let the earth bring forth grass and the herb yielding seed , he says , and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind , whose seed is in itself upon the earth . And it was so , okay , hallelujah . So you see it . He says once the land came in .

He says the land would bring forth grass . Okay , so the land is supposed to yield something , it's supposed to do something . It has a purpose , purpose , purpose , purpose . Okay , so he didn't just create the dry land to create it . He could have , but he didn't . He says I'm creating the dry land , but I'm also giving the dry land purpose .

He says that it'll bring forth grass , it'll bring forth herb that will produce more , more seed . Okay , hallelujah , he said . And the fruit tree apples , pears , go on and on and on , he says , yielding fruit after its kind soined . So what is planted , something comes out of it . Come on , that's a word , hallelujah . Whatever is grown up produces something .

This is why , when we bite into an apple , when we bite into a pear , there's always a core , there is a seed that will , if you plant it , it'll yield . Moreelujah , amen . Look , he says , whose seed is in itself . So the seed bears more . Okay , the seed will bear more . That was his intention . So in this particular context , we're talking about fruit .

But you got to know that's in everything . Everything has a seed that grows out of a seed . Hallelujah , he says upon the earth . And it was so , the earth . And it was so , he says , and the earth brought forth grass and yield , an earth yielding seed after his kind and the tree yielding fruit whose seed was in itself after his kind .

And God saw it was good . And the evening and the morning were the third day . Amen , so that was the third day . Looking at the time , see , if we want to go through the fourth day , yeah , yeah , let's go ahead and go ahead . Go ahead and go ahead .

Yeah , because we got , yeah , because when we finish four , then On tomorrow we should be able to get through day five , day six and the creation of man . We should be able to Go ahead and go over four . Okay , so this is all of day three .

All of your produce and your vegetables and things of that nature , all your fruits and your vegetables , was come up out of the ground , out of the land that God created . Okay , day four , he says . And God said let there be lights in the firmament . Isn't it interesting how he goes from the land and then he goes back to heaven .

He said let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night . He said so these are like the signs and the wonders , he says , and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years . He says and let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth . And it was so .

God made two great lights . The greater light is to well , 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 heaven to give light upon the earth . So we're talking about the sky . So what do we know ? That shows us that it's daytime . The sun , absolutely Amen .

It has a light . But the sun rules . Okay , he says . And to rule over the day and over the night and to divide the light from the darkness . God saw it was good . In the evening and the morning Were the fourth day , amen . So he made the stars , he made the sun , so that they would be the greater light , they would have rule over the steel machine .

Day from night . Okay , so when we see the sun out , we let us , they let us know that , okay , day is the daytime , like our day is beginning when we begin to see the dark , because right now , for me it is , it's kind of dark outside still , but here in about 20 minutes . It's going to be light because the sun is rising up .

Sometimes we don't actually see the sun because of the clouds , but the sun brings forth the light . Amen , that is . That lets us know that it is daytime . And then , once the sun goes down and it gets dark , what's the other thing ? The moon . Come on y'all . Hallelujah .

I hope I'm getting ahead of myself , because he did mention the stars , that he made the stars too . And if there ain't no stars outside and you don't see no moon , it is quite dark outside , isn't it ? But at the end of the day it is there , and the fact that there's no light is another thing that bears witness that it is night time .

This is why he stopped . Established in day uh two that or day one rather , the light from darkness . We will be able to discern light from darkness . I feel like I'm talking in a riddle , but quite simple , it's quite simple .

So I'm going to stop right there and , as I said before , tomorrow we're going to pick up on day five , day six and creation of man , I think . So y'all , make sure y'all come on back for

that . But otherwise I pray that you got something from um today's lesson . I hope that you got a little bit clarity , uh , in regard to creation . So , uh , let's go ahead and pray . Father , we thank you so much again for this day and thank you , god for this word .

And thank you god much again for this day , and thank you , god for this word , and thank you , god for giving us some clarity on anything we didn't understand , and I pray that I did it right , yeah , the way you desire me to do it , and I pray that , in the name of Jesus , you'll continue to draw us to you , continue to give us not just the knowledge but

the understanding , the revelation that only comes from you . Thank you so much , and we love you and we praise your holy and your righteous name . We also quickly just pray for those that said pray for me . We pray God , for those that might be going through this , that and the other .

I just pray , god , that you would touch them in such a way they would know that it's you . Father , I pray this prayer in your access . In the precious name of Jesus Christ , we do pray . Amen , amen and amen . Hallelujah Again , come on back . I look forward to being able to be a light in your life .

Amen , yeah , y'all , make sure y'all , um continue the journey with me , because it is absolutely a journey , as I'm trying to follow the spirit and do what he told me to do . So much , so much , but , um , so much love from me , so many blessings from me to you . Y'all have a great day , a great night . Amen and amen .
