The 7 Days of Creation
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. – Genesis 1:1
For a long time, I’ve wanted to read through the Bible in chronological
time order. Reading in time order will help me understand the stories
on a deeper level so I’ll gain a better understanding of Biblical truths
all the way through from the 7 days of creation in Genesis to the book
of Revelation. I have several different versions of the Bible. I loved
my Ryrie Study Bible in the NASB version through high school and college. I still have that Bible (and several childhood Bibles). Now, I use a large print NASB version, a single column ESV journaling Bible, a Message version, a Chronological Bible, and most recently, a Large Print Beautiful Word NIV version.
I enjoy my time in all of these versions, but I like the way the
Beautiful Word version draws me into the scriptures and makes me want to
spend more time in God’s Word. If you’re an adult who enjoys coloring,
you’ll love the Beautiful Word Bible.Image Credit: Abundant Family Living (Tina Truelove) |

On the first day, God created light. He created night and day.
On the second day, God created the sky.
On the third day, God created land and vegetation.
On the fourth day, God created the sun, moon, and stars.
On the fifth day, God created birds and sea animals.
On the sixth day, God created animals and humans.
On the seventh day, God rested.
7 Days of Creation: Adam and Eve
It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him. Genesis 2:18
In Genesis 2, we learn that God brought all the animals to Adam so that Adam could name them, animals of all kinds. This is when God saw that it was not good for Adam to be alone so He created Eve.
Now we have the first marriage.So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. Genesis 2:21-22
That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh. Genesis 2:24
If you would like a Beautiful Word Bible, this is the one I have.
