Darkness to Light

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.  And God said, Let there be light; and there was light.  And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

The earth was without form and void, useless, darkness upon the face of the deep.  This is God's creation!  Ineffective apart from the Creator's indwelling, without His presence upon the face.  Darkness was upon the face of the deep.  There was darkness upon the creation.  No life was upon it yet.  This  motionless, useless creation, empty and dark, where there was darkness.  BUT THEN God's Spirit came and moved on the face of the waters.  This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Where there was darkness upon the face but now the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters!  There was darkness but now God moved!!  He said let there be light!  And there was light!  When He moves He creates light!!  He makes manifest by the light!  To marvelous light! God gives life to what was dead, useless, meaningless, and purposeless!  God moved!  = there was light!  God is light!  For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

1 John 1:5; Ephesians 5:8; Ephesians 5:14; 2 Corinthians 6:14; Acts 26:18

God saw the light, that is was good.  God divided the light from the darkness.  So light can remain light and not be darkness as it once was.  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?  He separates the two!  Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.  To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
