Unlocking the First Spoken Word in the Bible as a Mirror of Your Awakening
Before the stars, before the sun, before man was formed from dust…
The very first thing God said in Scripture was:
“Let there be light.” — Genesis 1:3
But this was not sunlight — the sun wasn’t created until verse 16.
So what was this light?
It was awareness.
It was understanding.
It was the awakening of divine consciousness.
1. The First Word Was Light
Light, in scripture, always symbolizes truth, wisdom, clarity, revelation.
This first spoken word — “Let there be light” —
is not a historical act of God creating photons.
It is God within you awakening from sleep.
It is the moment you go from:
“I don’t know who I am…”
to
“I AM.”
That’s light. That’s Logos.
2. From Darkness to Revelation
Verse 2 says:
“Darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” — Genesis 1:2
Darkness = ignorance, confusion, ego-mind, unconscious living
The deep = the subconscious realm
The Spirit hovering = awareness ready to awaken
Then comes the Word:
“Let there be light.”
This is not external light. This is inner recognition —
“I am more than this body. I am Spirit. I am the image of God.”
3. The Light Was Already There
Notice: God didn’t say, “Create light.”
He said, “Let there be light.”
Which means: The light was already present, just not seen.
This is your story.
The divine light has always been in you — but ego, fear, trauma, and tradition veiled it.
The light wasn’t born — it was revealed.
4. The True You Is Light
Jesus said:
“You are the light of the world.” — Matthew 5:14
“While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” — John 9:5
Why?
Because He was speaking from the awakened I AM.
You are not trying to become the light.
You ARE the light when you awaken to who you truly are.
5. Light Separates from Darkness
Genesis 1:4 says:
“God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.”
This is symbolic of the inner division that takes place when you awaken.
You begin to discern truth from tradition
You separate identity from illusion
You no longer live from ego, but from Spirit
The light of your divine mind shines on the lies, and they disappear.
6. Light Is the First Step in Manifestation
Nothing is created until light appears.
You cannot manifest health, wealth, peace, or joy until you first say:
“Let there be light in my thinking.”
“Let me see who I truly am.”
Revelation comes before manifestation.
Identity comes before reality.
Consciousness comes before creation.
Affirmation:
“Let there be light in my mind.
Let there be light in my heart.
Let there be light in my thoughts.
I AM the light of the world.
I shine with divine wisdom, truth, and awareness.”
