Genesis - Chapter 1

God Creates the Universe

Day 1:

  • God created the universe.

  • At first, there was nothing but darkness and chaos.

  • God created light, separating it from darkness.

  • This is when day and night began.

Day 2:

  • God created the sky — the atmosphere that separates water on Earth from water in clouds above.

Day 3:

  • God gathered the water into seas and oceans.

  • Dry land appeared.

  • Plants, trees, and crops were created on the land so Earth could support life.

Day 4:

  • God created the Sun, Moon, and stars to give light, mark seasons, days, and years.

  • The Sun lights the day; the Moon lights the night.

  • Stars are in the sky to help track time and guide people.

Day 5:

  • God created sea creatures and birds.

  • Life in water and air was made to fill the Earth.

Day 6:

  • God created land animals, including livestock, wild animals, and humans.

  • Humans were made in God’s image, capable of thinking, making choices, and caring for the Earth.

  • Humans were given responsibility to take care of all living things.

Day 7:

  • God rested.

  • This established the concept of rest and reflection, showing that rest is important for life.

Key Points in Today’s Language

  1. It’s a story of order being created from chaos — light, sky, land, plants, animals, humans.

  2. Humans have a special role: to think, create, and care for the Earth.

  3. The seven-day structure emphasizes planning, work, and rest, which is still relevant today.

Health - 1 - Health Through God’s Eyes

Health Through God’s Eyes When we talk about health today, most people immediately think about diets, gyms, or supplements. And while those things matter, the Bible shows us that true health goes way beyond just the body. Your health is body, mind, and spirit all working together , and God cares about every part of you. In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, the Bible says: “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you…? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.” This means that taking care of yourself isn’t just about looking good or feeling better—it’s a way to honor God . Every choice you make about food, rest, or even your thoughts is an act of stewardship over the life God has given you. In today’s fast-paced world, we often ignore this truth. We eat on the go, skip sleep, let stress run wild, and push our minds and bodies past their limits. It’s no surprise that sickness, burnout, and emotional struggles are e...

Finance - 3 - Be Wise with What You Have

  Be Wise with What You Have God doesn’t just bless us with resources — He calls us to manage them wisely . Wisdom in finances isn’t about how much you have but how you use what’s been trusted to you. The Bible says in Proverbs 21:20 , “The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down.” In today’s language, that means: smart people save and plan ahead, but careless spending leads to stress and regret. In today’s world, it’s easy to fall into the trap of instant gratification — the latest phone, new clothes, fancy coffee, or online impulse buys. But God invites us to live differently. He teaches us to think long-term , to plan, and to avoid being controlled by money or possessions. True wisdom isn’t about chasing wealth; it’s about using what you already have with purpose . Financial wisdom includes budgeting, saving, giving, and staying away from unnecessary debt. It’s about saying, “God, how do You want me to use what You’ve given me?” When we manage mone...

Relationships - 1 - God’s Blueprint for Relationships

God’s Blueprint for Relationships Relationships are one of the most beautiful parts of life—but also one of the hardest. Whether it’s marriage, friendship, or family, we’ve all faced moments when love gets complicated, trust is broken, or forgiveness feels impossible. In a world full of mixed messages about love and connection, it’s easy to forget that God actually gave us a clear blueprint for how to build healthy, lasting relationships. From the very beginning, God said, “It’s not good for man to be alone.” (Genesis 2:18) We were created for connection—not just romantic relationships, but real, meaningful ones built on love, honesty, and faith. The problem is, society often teaches us to focus on what we can get from others, while God’s Word teaches us to focus on what we can give. When we step back and look at relationships through God’s eyes, everything changes. Love becomes more than a feeling—it becomes a daily choice. Marriage becomes more than a piece of paper—it becomes a ...
