KEY ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR GOD- 'AIR' (PART 1)

We continue with our series
KEY ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR GOD.

'AIR' is our focus today. (PART 1)

So far we've looked at  WATER and LIGHT and how key they are, in their apt and perfect description of God.

As has been the format, we look at Air in its generality before we submerge ourselves into its spirituality and source.
AIR from the scientific angle)-The mixture of invisible odourless, colourless, tasteless gases (as nitrogen and oxygen) that  surrounds the earth.

The sky-the firmament, A giant void, of nothingness.

An atmospheric movement; a breeze or wind.

Other definitions relate to:
To express an opinion. A tune or short melodious song.

Okayyy, I love  the first scientific definition about the INVISIBLE MIXTURE OF GASEOUS SUBSTANCES.

Hear me here, does that suggest to you of its supernatural source.

Obviously, the naturally cool, breathless indescribable feel that AIR brings can never be made by man  but by God himself. (Chrck its artificial counterpart FAN)

The Bible doesn't specifically tell us of the creation of AIR but  then he created the Sky and its firmament.
(Gen 1:1-6)

Naturally and obviously in-built in it is the AIR we feel and overabuse all the time.
It's around us 24/7 even in the darkest part but we mostly fail to recognise, appreciate its true meaning and essence till...

Take this...till by some unfortunate circumstances,you find yourself stuck in a very enclosed area where AIR is fast fading out.

Until your screams& your shouts meet the helping hand of a good samaritan; you really get to understand that THE AIR WE BREATHE IS LIFE.

Remember, this song
THE AIR WE BREATHE, IT ALL BELONGS TO YOU

Gen 2:7
Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and BREATHED INTO HIS NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE, and the MAN BECAME a LIVING BEING.
(Our focal passage)

Air appears few times in the Bible but its key essence of revealing God's nature is intact.

Join me for Part 2 as we dig deeper into the Scriptures for more.

SO I SAY:
'AIR IS A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD'
