The Exegesis of Genesis One Three

Genesis 1:3 NMV‬‬

[3] And God-Elōhīm [The Creator - The Many Powered] said, Let the sun rise: and there was light.

‭‭Genesis 1:3 NKJV‬‬

[3] Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 

During a prayer session on the 13th of March 2024, I had a vision of the creation of light. What was revealed to me in a quick flash was that between the sentence 'let there be light' and 'and there was light,' was a process which includes a Project and Quality Manager, a Project Implémenter, a full of set of resources, a well designed project management tool, and an elaborate quality management standards. If you are a tech savvy person, you can see where the input - process - output in the computer system or any other known system originated from. 

I being a chief of those who have naively read this verse, know this particular verse (Gen 1v3) has been lightly read, and not understood by so many (Please note that I am not saying that I know or understood more than anyone). However, if we allow the Author and the Finisher to expose and express the mystery behind this verse we would see and come to the understanding that embedded in this verse are things too marvellous for our human brain to comprehend. 

When God said 'let there be light', that Word was a command directed to Someone else who has the capability of bringing light from darkness or in any situations. Bringing this to the real world sense, this project implementers resume and wealth of experience means He is well capable of executing this command with utmost diligence and quality orientation. His resume depicts that He can bring light from darkness. He is not trying to use the earth project as an opportunity for internship or to practice His unrefined and newly-acquired skills. Meaning His resume shows that He has previously done this and on numerous occasions. If His resume were to be written for any role, I believe it would look something like this

Experience

1. Omnipresent years of bringing light saving the whole world from darkness.
2. Omniscient level of project and program quality orientation and attention to details. Thus doing the will of God Elohim to the uttermost (Heb 7v25). 
3. Omnipotence ability to make the impossible possible. Thus “calling those things which are not as though they were” (Romans 4:17). 

Of course His resume is more impressive and elaborate than what's written here. In short, His resume is so vast, impressive and powerful that it cannot be fully documented by all human hands and heads put together. Back to our discussion, let's explore this Bible verse (Gen 1v3) from a more practical point. This we intend to accomplish by taking a deep look at the definition and synonyms of the word 'let'. 

According to definition (Oxford dictionary), the word 'let' means not prevent or forbid (something or someone); or simply allow (something or someone). Some of the synonyms of the word 'let' are : permit, give permission to, give leave to, authorize, sanction, grant, grant the right to, warrant, license, empower, enable, entitle, assent to, endorse, approve, commission, accredit, etc. 

Looking at the definition of the word and its synonyms shows an interaction between two or more people. The first one is the person giving the decree, the second one is the person implementing the order, and the third one is the one doing the job. Which I firmly believe confirms the existence of the Triune God. God the Father (Project Owner) authorized the earth's project initiation document, which was sent as a direct decree to God the Son, Who I believe doubled as both the Project and Quality Manager, because verse 4 of Genesis 1 shows that God Elohim the Project Owner was totally satisfied with the outcome of the project. Meaning that God the Son is a good and meticulous Project and Quality Manager. Now, God the Holy Spirit being a person known for a godly level of detail orientation was/is the Contractor Who received the project plan from the Project and Quality Manager, and intensely laboured to ensuring that the Project Owners expectations are met and exceeded. Verse 4 of Genesis also confirms this. 

The Holy Spirit is so detail-oriented that even God Elohim the Father had to warn that He the Holy Spirit doesn't forgive any inferior project execution (Matt 12v32, Eph 4v30). We saw the record of Ananias and Sapphira, who had an opportunity to partner with the Holy Spirit on a kingdom project, but connived to deliver a project product of a shambolic and inferior quality (Acts 5v1-11). The good book also highlighted Cains experience (Gen 4v3-5) when he was subcontracted the project of producing the perfume brand which I believe the brand name is Shekinah perfume. He is so detail-oriented that even Moses, despite being awarded the Guinness record as the meekest person on the surface of the earth, a record which still remains unbroken, was disqualified from entering the promise land just by falling short at the quality expectation of the Project Owner, during the water production and purification project at the Desert of Zin (Num 20v8). I hope with these examples I have been able to convince and not confuse you that God in three person, blessed trinity is as real as the brain in your head. You also have the option to prove otherwise. In the human sense, only a person with chronic multipersonality disorder would talk to himself out loud when engaged in a task. Which is different in the case of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. These three exist in ONE, and we know them as Trinity. The mystery of Trinity is beyond human comprehension, but revealed to those who despite not having seen it believed all the same (John 20v29), and counted Him faithful Who said it and Who is also able to perform it (I Thes 5v24).

To wrap up this piece, I think it is good to also show certain people in the history of our earthly existence who have been able to work with the Holy Spirit on some assigned tasks and have heard the words "Well done! You good and faithful servant, come into the joy of the Lord thy God" (Matt 25v23). One is Enoch, who was so detailed-oriented that he was translated and never tasted the sting of death. The other reference is prophet Elijah, who was also detailed about the tasks given that God had to send him heavenly Uber to jet him to Him. The last one is Jesus Christ who during the implementation of the earth emancipation project, despite being the Architect of the same world, had to leave everything behind to come sojourn with us on earth, not to learn the corrupt ways of the world, but to transform it from the kingdom of darkness by once again bringing light through His own death and resurrection.

So brethren, this may sound like a typical hook in most of my posts. You may be having some chronic issues (financial, spiritual, health, career, marital, Etcetera). Whatever they may be, they are nothing but darkness. I just want to let you know that my God, Who I hope and believe is your God is well versed in bringing light to darkness. He is not a god in training! He is a good God Who is very faithful to His words. So you don't have to fret or be dismayed at the insurmountable pressures. Greater is the light in you than the power backing the darkness against you (Psalms 27v1, I John 4v4). For in God is light and there is not a shade of darkness in or around our God (I John 1v5). All you need to do is a total surrender of those things to the hands of our Omnipotent ABBA Father. For only in the act of total surrender would one truly experience His omnipotence in our impotence. 

May God JEHOVAH ‘ORI – The Lord My Light shine the light of His Shekinah glory in and around you for the whole world to see how manifold are His works (Psalms 104v24-25).

Shalom aleichem brothers and sisters.
