"Day 2"

“Day 2”

Blessings folk!

The Lord spoke creation into existence and form in six days.
The Word declares this.
The Word verifies it.

Now, day 2.

Gen 1:6-8

And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

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.


On day 2 the Lord separated the waters.
Interesting.

A firmament was created.
A dividing space between the waters.
Hummm?

So, there were waters below and waters above.

What is this firmament?

The Lord names it “heaven”.

This is likely speaking of what we call “the sky”…the atmospheric realm.

This helps to give some understanding to Genesis 6 and the flood account.

The hydrological cycle and processes of creation were different prior to the flood.

So, day 1 - “light”!
Day 2 - “firmament in the midst of the waters”.

God designed.
God executed.
God has a plan.

Did you note the phrase “and it was so.”
Thus it is with the plan, design and creation of the Lord.
Nothing will thwart it.
It is so.
