Numerical Expositions: Genesis 1:18

And to rule over the day and the night, and to divide the light from the darkness:  and God saw that it was good.

-- Gen. 1:18 (KJV)

The final purposes given for the sun, the moon, and the stars are to rule over the day and the night and to divide the light from the darkness.  The lights from above are to dictate when it is day and when it is night throughout the entire earth.  These lights in the sky will directly allow for you to know what time it really is.  Without the sun, the moon, and the stars, time would not exist.

Learning the difference between light and darkness is one of the essential elements needed in order to live a successful life.  A con artist can appear to be good on the outside, but that person is definitely evil on the inside.  Cultivate your intuition in order to discern the difference between light and darkness.

Numerical Analysis:  The numerical pattern for this verse is 1,9,8.  (1) Follow God in order to have authority.  (9) To overturn evil, learn the difference between light and darkness.  (8) Choose to have a new beginning in God so that He will be pleased with you.
