Lesson 3: April 13-19

‘While the earth remaineth’

 

5. What happens every day because God created it like that? Genesis 1:16-19.

NOTE: ‘On the fourth day God created lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night. “And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night;” that they might divide the light from the darkness. Under the rule of God’s great time-keepers, [Deuteronomy 4:19,] day and night have ever since existed, and have come with the utmost regularity to all the inhabitants of the earth. Thus these two great divisions of time, morning and evening, or day and night, which make up the day of twenty-four hours, have come down to us as they were given to Adam.’ James White: Review & Herald, July 2, 1851.

 

6. What happens every year because God ordained it to be like that? Genesis 8:22.

NOTE: ‘It is not because of inherent power that year by year the earth produces her bounties and continues her motion round the sun. The hand of God guides the planets and keeps them in position in their orderly march through the heavens. It is through His power that summer and winter, seedtime and harvest, day and night follow each other in their regular succession. It is by His word that vegetation flourishes, that the leaves appear and the flowers bloom. Every good thing we have, each ray of sunshine and shower of rain, every morsel of food, every moment of life, is a gift of love.’ Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing, page 74.
