Happy Thursday

Happy Thursday indeed. I tell you, the Lord is wonderful, merciful, gracious, loving...I keep going on and on about my Heavenly Father, my Redeemer. This blog could not contain it. That's how much it would be. I've been going through of late. These past couple of days, the Lord showed me that in order to fight the lust of the flesh, there are a couple of things that I must do. (1) I have to walk in the Spirit & (2) I have to put on Jesus Christ. This will be discussed further in another blog. What I wanted to blog about is how great of a Thursday it is. It is truly a wonderful day. I went into the Word. So, amazing. Right now, I'm on Genesis. I decided to go back to chapter 1 and redo it. I want to make sure that I read and study it the right way with no time frame or elements distracting me. You see, we must always put the Lord first & that is what I want. My studying came out better. I'm still on the first day. That's cool because the first day allows us to see so much. 1st: God created the heaven and earth; unlike atheists' views, there is a Creator & He is Yahweh. 2nd: Jesus and the Holy Spirit have active roles in creation. 3rd: All God has to do is command something & it is done. 4th: God separated the light from the dark. This was just the first day. I combined references to theses verses.


Conclusion: God is the Creator of this world & of all living things. The Trinity was working together in the beginning. The light and the dark are literal, but also figurative as they can refer to those in Christ and those in the world-those who follow God and those that choose their evil ways. 


There is so much that a Reference Study Bible can help you with. I enjoy the Life Application Study Bible (KJV), which is of tremendous help. Also, the Holy Spirit led me to the revelations of the contrast of light and dark. It's important that we ask God for help from the Holy Ghost in regards to discerning what we have read in the Bible. Otherwise, we will read, but not have a clear understanding of what we have read, & we want an understanding.


Having said this, today has been a great restful day for me. There was the exception of a nightmare dream that I had in my nap, but I shrugged that off, and asked for forgiveness. The devil is a liar. 


It's always good to have a lazy, productive Thursday...I look forward to posting my biblical studies here.


Until Next Time...Lord's Willing.
