Without getting too technical in study of the first heaven, it can be noted of the
atmospheric condition which we see and area of air we breathe. With the beauty
of sky we observe, the layers of what is high above us is necessary for life to thrive
on earth. God blessed the human race with the ability to both enjoy and have
dominion over what He created to the extent that was fitting for humans to reside
healthy on this earth. God’s ways in the purpose of nature were meant to the sus-
tenance of provision by His standards. What He sent down in the form of rain, dew,
snow, and frost was intended to the exact reason He designed it to have its part in
whatever would be needed at whatever time necessary, so what we call weather is
actually the conditions of the air surrounding the earth. Acknowledging what God
has placed in these elements, we must furher understand that His Sovereignty is
much greater in proportion to any human endeavor to explain how or why He
assembled it together. Keeping in mind His infinite authority over nature and the
divine care that supplies nutrition for all, His Word of Himself states how fruitful
and prosperous in accomplishment to the pleasing of His will would be to the
plan of salvation in a covenant greater than what was marred due to disobedience.
No human mind would be able to even scratch the surface of knowledge without
God’s Almighty hand in what He has placed for one to know. Even the observation
of bird’s flying swiftly to the sky may appear to the eyes as an upward movement to
the height of air that permits the wind current to the stretching out of wings to soar
in expanse. In the affirmation of God’s presence, His work was sure to bless in the
abundance of His love as freely as birds are carried about with wings in the beauty
of motion. Sadly, humans misused what God bestowed for good in exchange for
gain of earthly pleasures that caused harm affecting the right relationship God
intended between Himself and others. God gave humans free choice to either
accept His love in the command of what He considered healthy, or else reject it
and face the consequences of judgment. He forseen the fallen state; howbeit,
His grace would propel a time ahead to the saving of the soul to the extent of
the raising up of the body to a life that reaches far beyond what is known of
this earthly life filled with sorrow. Riches of this life is fleeting; however, the
joy that awaits those who trust in Jesus is much more in perception than what
these earthly eyes could contain. Take notice to “Blessings And Cursings From The First Heaven”
