Numerical Expositions: Genesis 1:4

And God saw the light, that it was good:  and God divided the light from the darkness.

-- Gen. 1:4 (KJV)

When God saw the light shining down, then he determined that light was good.  The reason as to why light is good is because everything is fully exposed in light.  Nothing can be hidden once it is under the light.  If you are doing the right things on a daily basis, then you do not need to hide what you are doing from everyone else.  If you are doing the wrong thing, then you will attempt to hide what you are doing from others so that you will not be caught.

Next, God divided the light from the darkness because light is at a higher level than darkness.  When you turn on a light in a room, notice that the darkness goes away.  Light always dispels darkness.  For you to reach the next level within your life, do things that are right instead of living a double life behind the scenes.

Numerical Analysis:  The numerical pattern for this verse is 1,4,5.  (1) To stay in the anointing, focus on the light.  (4) To stay in God's Word, realize that light is good.  (5) To stay in God's presence, realize that light is at a higher level than darkness.
