so often in scripture, in holy scripture the
biblical writers often times will make a general
statement and after that general statement they'll
move into the details so they'll start big picture
and then they'll break big picture down into
segments so verse chapter 1 verse 1 says in the
beginning God created the heavens and earth point
period general statement Now as we move into
verse 2, Moses is giving you the details of just
how God created the heaven and earth. So when
we see verse 2, we have God looking upon the
earth blank and without light, without energy,
without human, without creation void, a blank
canvas. And from that voided canvas or that blank
canvas, God had vision. So something to take
heart here for a timeless principle, a life application
that you can run with from Genesis 1 -2 is that
without vision, there cannot be anything. So
if you want to create something out of nothing,
you have to have vision. And God, with His infinite
knowledge, His infinite wisdom, His infinite
creative powers, He had a vision for when there
was nothing. So as a timeless life application
you can take away from Genesis 1 2 is you got
to have a vision if you want to bring something
out of nothing. Let me explain to you how this
carries over for mankind since mankind is the
very image and reflection of God upon the earth.
When you see an organization that has nothing
going for it and you want to lead such organization
as an imitation of God, you have to have the
vision to bring something out of nothing for
such said organization. The same thing applies
to your marriage. You have to have a vision for
that young lady as a young man who wants to bring
something out of no relationship at right now
that is nothing. You may have had your first
coffee dinner date with her. You're drinking
your coffee. You're talking. You've known her
for a week. You think this is your wife. You
have to show her your vision to bring something
out of a dating scenario that right now is currently
nothing. You have to show her, hey, I'm going
to be the man that has a vision for your life.
You have to be a visionary person with purpose
in this life. If you want to bring something
out of nothing the same thing applies for organization
for marriage for family and as Once again, it's
a timeless principle. Well, thank you for joining
