The First Day

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.  5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night.  So the evening and the morning were the first day. (Gen 1:1-5)

The word for day is the Hebrew word “yom”. When it is used in conjunction with a number, in this case the first day (“yom”), it means one 24 hour day. That first day when God created the heavens and the earth from nothing was a literal 24-hour day.

The intent of this blog is to bring glory, honor and praise to Our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ.

I call it “The Day” because this is the day that the LORD has made and we shall rejoice and be glad in it.
