Certain times of the year the moon’s orbit comes closer to the earth. These are the times it looks the largest and shines the brightest. We all admire its dreamy beauty and the moonlight shadows which it creates.
In the book of Genesis we are told that God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years…….let them be for lights to give light on the earth; and it was so.” (Gen. 1:14-15)
The moon is a mighty player in God’s creation. Throughout the stories of the Bible we are told of its role in the marking of time -the designating of the seasons – the signaling of prophetic events. For thousands of years, for ancient cultures all the way to our own modern times, the moon has served as a beacon of God’s almighty power and majesty.
When the “Day of the Lord” is at hand, the moon once more will again take part in what could possibly be the most significant event in all creation:
“The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and notable day of the Lord.” (Acts 2:20)
We will “all” then bear witness of the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ – King of Kings————Judgment Day………
It’s not just “moon light” –
– it’s the “Almighty” light !
