In the beginning it was not so

IN THE BEGINNING, IT WAS NOT SO

n order to understand
what should be and what should not be, we need to go back to the beginning.
Gen.1:1-3
In
the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. The earth was without form,
and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was
hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light”; and
there was light.
The scripture above, made it clear that from
the beginning God created and completed the heaven and the earth, and it was
beautiful.
In the beginning, God created, God
initiated, God gave birth to an idea, called the heaven and the earth. Two
different realms were birthed, the spiritual realm and the physical realm. The
spiritual realm is a timeless zone while the physical realm is a time zone. The
spiritual realm controls the physical realm. The physical realm is an extension
of the spiritual realm. It is a reflection of what has happened in the
spiritual realm.
God cannot begin a project with failure
in mind, so when God created the heaven and the earth, it was a huge
success, it was perfect and beautiful, good to look upon.
Heaven: is a place of peace, harmony, joy, good health, long live, rejoicing
and anything good. And the earth is meant to be heavens embassy, God’s extension.
Everything enjoyed in heaven is supposed to be enjoyed here on earth, according
to God’s blue print for creation.
But something
happened along the line, and that which was once beautiful and good, was now without
form and void and darkness was upon the surface of the deep
Between chapter one
and chapter two was a very long time, there was war in heaven and the devil was
cast down to earth, because he rebelled against the Lord. Remember, nothing
happened to the heaven, but the earth was in chaos because the devil was cast
down.
Rev.12:7-13
And there was war in heaven: Michael
and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
And
prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon
was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth
the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out
with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and
strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the
accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and
night. And
they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony;
and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice ye heavens,
and ye that dwell in them. Woe to t he inhabiters of the earth and of the sea!
for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth
that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he
persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
The
devil knew that he has lost heaven completely; hence when he was cast down to
the earth, he made up his mind to hinder man from enjoying the best of the Lord
here on earth. That is why woe was announced to the inhabitants of the earth.
For the thief(devil) cometh not, but to steal, kill and destroy, when the devil
invades a place, his mission is to steal from you all that pertain to life and
godliness, which has been given to you, to kill, your dreams,vision,family,
ministry, marriage etc. and to destroy what so ever is left completely.
