"And the evening and the morning were the first day."

"And the evening and the morning were the first day." 
 Genesis 1:5

The evening was "darkness" and the morning was "light," 
and yet the two together are called by the name that is given to the light alone! This is somewhat remarkable, 
but it has an exact analogy in spiritual experience. 

In every believer there is darkness and light, 
and yet he is not to be named a sinner because there is sin in him, 
but he is to be named a saint because he possesses some degree of holiness. 

This will be a most comforting thought to those who are mourning their infirmities, and who ask, "Can I be a child of God while there is so much darkness in me?" 
Yes; for you, like the day, take not your name from the evening, 
but from the morning; and you are spoken of in the word of God as if you were even now perfectly holy as you will be soon. 

You are called the child of light, though there is darkness in you still.
 You are named after what is the predominating quality in the sight of God, which will one day be the only principle remaining. 
Observe that the evening comes first. 
Naturally we are darkness first in order of time, and the gloom is often first in our mournful apprehension, driving us to cry out in deep humiliation, "God be merciful to me, a sinner." 

The place of the morning is second, it dawns when grace overcomes nature.
 It is a blessed aphorism of John Bunyan, "That which is last, lasts for ever."

 That which is first, yields in due season to the last; but nothing comes after the last. 
So that though you are naturally darkness, when once you become light in the Lord, there is no evening to follow; 
"thy sun shall no more go down. " 
The first day in this life is an evening and a morning; 
but the second day, when we shall be with God, for ever, 
shall be a day with no evening, but one, sacred, high, eternal noon.

"Let your thoughts be psalms, 
your prayers incense, 
and your breath praise." 
(Charles H Spurgeon)

 If you are NOT a believer in Jesus Christ,
 you can be accepted into his kingdom.
 I invite you to let him to make of you,
what He always wanted.

 "PRAYER" 
 Marvelous God Almighty,
 I come to you in the precious name of Jesus,
 who died for me to make me free of sin,
 I want Jesus to enter into my heart and make me free,
 I confess that He is the son of God.
 I ask to change my heart and to give me wisdom to understand 
your Holy Word full of promises of eternal value,
 not only to live on this earth,
 but to be expectant of my life in heaven.
 In the precious name of Jesus I ask.
Amen..

 “The true minister of Christ knows
that the true value of a sermon must lie,
 not in its fashion and manner,
 but in the truth which it contains.

Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy..

Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs.
