A New Day

Note: In a while I hope to get back to the series I was writing on, but I don't have the energy to put into research right now. Please enjoy my own study on some scripture I'm reading. I hope you have a blessed new day!  Today, as is every day we wake up, is a new day.  We get another chance to worship our Heavenly Father in the ways He has laid out that He wants us to worship.  He tells us of Himself in Exodus 34:6-7.  Here Moses had wanted to see Him and YHWH told him that no he couldn't see his face but he would hide him in the cleft of the rocks and declare to him who He is and let Moses see His back. We ought to take it to heart when YHWH has said who He is- because literally no one else can tell Him who He is: YHWH passed before him and proclaimed, " YHWH, YHWH, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means c

  Well on the fourth day YHWH created the sun, moon, and stars. I find it interesting that there was already light and plants but no living creatures before the sun. Of course the plants need the sun for photosynthesis which leads me to believe these were literal days and not a thousand years (or more) as some might suggest.  On the fifth day He created birds and fish- some of the first living creatures that need plants. He told them to be fruitful and multiply filling the waters and the sky. On the sixth day YHWH created land creatures and man. These are all significant in the order of things because without plants there would be no food for any of these living creatures. Without the sun, the plants would have no energy (though as a seed it would be able to sprout 🌱 under the soil and establish the roots). The whole order of things is significant.  So now there's man on the scene. YHWH Tod man to be fruitful and multiply like He told the other living creatures. He told them all g
