Reading:
Psalm 33:6-9 “By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; he puts the deeps in storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.”
Introduction:
On day 2 we heard about the separation of waters.
It was an necessary separation for what God would do here on day 3, since Oxygen is necessary for the things that supply nutrition and nourishment.
The simple explanation is that God created boundaries between land and sea then spread an oxygen producing factory.
Transition:
Each day follows the same pattern as the previous: God Speaks, It is so, and Authority and jobs are handed out.
Here is the beginning of day 3:
I. God Spoke Land.
Genesis 1:9-10 “And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.”
And it was so.
God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together He called Seas.
And God saw that it was good.”
Transition:
God continued His creating for you and I and He did it by giving:
A. The Command.
Genesis 1:9 “And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.”
And it was so.”
The command is for the water to collect together forming seas and for dry land appear separated from the seas!
It may be fair to say that this command is a statement of Grace for every human.
It provides what is needed to sustain life, in more than one way!
We should praise the Lord and thank Him for commanding the seas and dry land to appear.
You may ask yourself a question about this command:
?How did the seas and land form?
God commanded it.
It might suggest that there was land under the waters which covered the Earth (waters below).
The waters couldn’t just be gathered into one place, since there was no place for them to collect.
Illustration:
My friend and I wanted to dig a fort one time.
We could use it for hiding when we played paintball.
We dug all day and when we figured it was deep enough we got plywood and covered the top and put shrubbery on top for proper cover and hiding.
The next day we were so excited to go and play paintball.
We started the game and my buddy jumped into the hiding place, the game was over.
We stopped playing because it had rained the night before.
Guess what happened.
He jumped into a 3 1/2 foot pool of water.
That was our little lesson in water traveling to the lowest point and collecting together.
God’s command required low points to be created.
The mountains and hills to appeared while the waters receded to fill the lower parts.
Transition:
God’s command raised the land and collected the water to the low areas, so we are focused on:
B. The Surface.
Genesis 1:9 “And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.”
And it was so.”
It was necessary for the surface to change.
Low parts were necessary for the collection of the water and the mountains and hills were necessary for the low parts to exist.
It created a boundary between land and sea, the water isn’t able to spread and cover the earth, well at least without Gods commanding!
There is also another theory that I have dealing with the tectonic plates.
Tectonic plates are real and visible.
I believe that the plates separated making a location and a way for water to drain to a location under the crust of the earth; which may validate Genesis 7:11 possible.
“In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.”
The waters of the flood fell from Heaven and also came from under the earth.
The tectonic plates move all the time and make our cities closely located to the fissures volatile and dangerous.
Volcanoes
Earth Quakes
Also an opportunity for them to separate and release boiling hot water, rocks, lava shooting into the air, as high as a volcano would.
The flood changed the surface of earth from what God commanded the earth to be shaped like.
Because of our sin God changed His creation from what He created good and perfect.
Transition:
The surface was arranged according to the Lords wisdom and created for humans to command authority and possess the dominion as God’s will to be done.
After He re-arranged all the Earth (the first time) we hear of:
C. God’s Approval.
Genesis 1:10 “God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas.
And God saw that it was good.”
God handed out the official boundaries for the world to appreciate and enjoy.
It is sustained by Him and maintained by Him.
My Opinion: That is a good reason that we as humans cannot ruin the planet or save it.
This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take seriously our command to take dominion of the earth and subdue it, which also is providing the expectation for us to be good stewards of all God has given us charge over.
He ascribed labels
Seas (Multiple, not one; but many.)
bodies of water: Oceans, Lakes, Rivers, and seas.
Land: Earth - Soil, Ground, etc...
Land: Cliffs, Mountains, Hills, Plains.
Transition:
God in His wisdom ascribed authority by providing labels and boundaries for land and sea.
How?
He spoke it into existence by giving a command.
Humans need sustenance and a way to gain nutrition.
Putting into play the digestive systems that God created humans with; to absorb vitamins for proper nutrition.
Now that borders were established between land and sea:
II.
God Spoke Vegetation.
Genesis 1:11 “And God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.”
And it was so.”
Transition:
My family and I have greatly appreciated the vegetables this past summer.
We have enjoyed the fruits of others labor; but it wouldn’t be possible without:
A. Vegetation.
We can all understand the importance of vegetation; but what are the benefits that we actually understand.
I say it that way because I bet there are more benefits that we gain which God has not revealed to humanity.
Benefits:
Plants produce Oxygen.
needed for life!
Plants are used for industry.
Cosmetic beauty, makeup.
Medicine.
