God speaks, and it is done (Genesis 1:3,6-7,11). God is pleased with
what He has done (Genesis 1:4,10, 12). This is the pattern of God's original
creation. It is to be the pattern of our life as a 'new creation' (2
Corinthians 5:17). God speaks to us and we say, 'Your will be done'
(Matthew 6:10). We say, 'let it be to me according to Your Word' (Luke
1:38). God looks on such obedience, this 'walking in the Spirit'
(Galatians 5:16, 22-23), and He sees that it is 'good' (Micah 6:8). In
these verses we read of the separation of the light and the darkness,
the separation of the waters and the dry land, and the fruitfulness of
God's creation. There are lessons for us here. We are to 'walk in the
light' (1 John 1:7). We are to to the Spirit's 'living water' flow in us
(John 7:39-39). Walking in the light, letting the living water flow -
this is the way of fruitfulness.
