Genesis 1:14 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;
Genesis 1:15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so.
Genesis 1:16 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.
Genesis 1:17 God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth,
Genesis 1:18 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.
Genesis 1:19 So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
I see the faithfulness of God in verse 17. God set them (2 great lights) in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth.
Even while we are experiencing the "nights" in our life, there is still the lesser light to rule the night. God is faithful and trustworthy. Sometimes, God may appear nowhere to be found, but there is still glimpse of light which He still provides so that we can exercise faith to trust Him. He wants us to live by faith and not by sight. We can still trust in His word, His promises and await His time. Be still and know that He is God. (Psalm 46:10). As His word clearly shows: "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him". (Hebrews 11:6)
God wants us to look beyond our circumstances, our trials and know that He is God. Every situation has a spiritual significance and a spiritual lesson for us to grasp Him and know Him deeper.
Praise God!
