Then God said let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water. And it was so, the expanse he called the Sky. One would then ask like I would, 'Where did God place the other body of water up in the Sky? Water happens to be one the main subject right from the beginning of this chapter: The spirit of God moved over the surface of the water, then God separated water from water and gathered water into one place. In the following verses He goes on to separate water from dry land. Where did God place the other body of water up in the Sky? It is interesting to note that, Naturally occurring clouds have water in its gas v***r state. The air we ignore everyday is made up of other gases including water v***r in meagre amounts .The Earth its self has 71% water with 97%being salty. In the later verses the humans are created and their body consisted of Water too. The human body consists of 60% water. What interests me about all this is the figurative purpose of water in the first verses. That even though the book of Genesis does not mention where water came from. It is introduce as one of Gods powerful elements which planet Earth depends on. God surrounded us with its favor which is also a reflection of his blessings and presence. Let there be an expanse to separate water from water, means that we need not to look too far in the Heavens for the presence of God or for his blessings. .The Samaritan woman who is a well figure of the Gospel of John. Brings a better picture this reality of God's presence. Not by seeking a sacred temple are we brought close to God. Even though Heavens are far up high, God is as close as the air we breath and this includes His Grace and Blessings too.

When Planet Earth was spoken into existence, Darkness and void sated the whole space, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the water, then followed the act of creation.

In Genesis 1:2 we are introduced to the Holy Spirit, before God began speaking things into existence. The Bible tells us, before the work of creation began, the Holy Spirit was already moving on the face of the Earth. The work of Creation was going to be a vast work and the opening verses of the Bible reveal a profound blueprint of God transforming darkness and disarrangement into beauty and order. This pattern process unfolds sequentially: The Spirit moved, God speaks and transformation occurs. Before God's command in verse 2, the earth was formless , empty and covered with darkness. with no beauty on the landscape.

What fascinates me in all this, Genesis1:2 depicts the Spirit of God dynamically engaging with the formless earth. And apparently, His Spirit works in a similar way with human beings too. God's Spirit moves and leads the hearts to search for the Word. Then transformation occurs. His Spirit enlivens His Word and without the Spirit, without the Word God, life lacks power. Other spirits will move and dissuade the heart. Transforming it into disarray and confusion. Simultaneously attempting to apply God's Word without the moving of the Spirit risks disappointment and frustration. Its more than just theological accuracy or deep intellectual understanding of the Bible. Let his Spirit move over the circumstances of your life and bring God's Word to Life.

''In the beginning God created the Heaven and Earth is the introduction of the real author of the book of Genesis. If you read again that phrase gives comfort!

In the beginning God created the Universe is what Genesis 1:1 means. The world and everything in and around was created by Him. The word of God is also introduced as a powerful element which was used in the creation of the Universe. This Word is eternal and stands firm in the heavens and will never pass away. Matthew 24 :35 Psalm 119:89 -91

The word of God is one of the most important tools we have. And From it we find direct comfort , counsel and truth about the future of our Universe. It is where we get to know the real character of God.

John 1. 3 tells us that God used this Word, an created everything that was created, Apostle Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 1:18 that He is the power and wisdom of God. And That is non other than Jesus Christ, who is the the Son and power of God. Representing God the Father He created the Heaven and Earth. And With the same power in His blood he came to saves us. Apostle Paul in Romans speaks of the blood of Christ as a powerful provision for our atonement and forgiveness of Sins.

''Create in me a clean heart'' the Psalmist prayed, '' If any man be in Christ he is a new creature.'' Apostle Paul said . And they testify to us that even though God ended his work during creation, His generative power never ceased to work. The enemy does not want us to know of this power.

The Apostle Paul then says ''For the Gospel is the Power of God unto Salvation. His creative power can still renew and create a clean heart in you! ''For God so loved the World that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him might be saved, meaning you and me. That each time you feel separated from God, each time you feel defeated by sin and the devil when sense sorrow and sadness. you can be assured of that generative Power to save and renew we be reactivated you. He wants to be your God!
