Pastor Joshua preaches about the beginning of how light was created and what the Lord says in regards to being separated from the darkness.
Genesis 1:1-4 New Living Translation
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. 3 Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good. Then he separated the light from the darkness.
Principle: God may operate at times in the dark, but He creates light.
James 1:17New Living Translation
17 Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.
Principle: He separates the light from the darkness.
2 Corinthians 6:17 New Living Translation
17 Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord. Don’t touch their filthy things, and I will welcome you.
Principle: We are not meant to Live in Darkness.
James 3:11-13 New Living Translation
11 Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? 12 Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty spring. True Wisdom Comes from God 13 If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.
Principle: The LIGHT rules over the darkness.
John 1:5 New Living Translation
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.
Principle: The light always wins over the darkness.
Principle: The darkness is subject to the light.
Principle: Living in the LIGHT causes you to rule in environments.
Genesis 1:14-18 New Living Translation
14 Then God said, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate the day from the night. Let them be signs to mark the seasons, days, and years. 15 Let these lights in the sky shine down on the earth.” And that is what happened. 16 God made two great lights—the larger one to govern the day, and the smaller one to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set these lights in the sky to light the earth, 18 to govern the day and night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
Principle: God always sets light in place.
Principle: God is establishing His light upon the Earth with people.
Principle: When we live in the light, we begin to rule and govern things that God puts us over.
