God has completed his work of creation in six days, but he has not finished his work of revelation in this creation event. Indeed, he adds one more formal day to his creation, which begins a cycle of Gospel revelation for God’s people until Jesus should return to fulfill all things.

Longing For That Sixth Day
Tuesday Video Devotion #42: Romans 8:34
Creation is a Candle Compared to Jesus Christ
The first five days seem a setup when the sixth day arrives. Just as life was established in previous days (plants, birds, and fish), so now life is added to (livestock, creeping things, beasts). Where there was no “summer buzz” of bugs in the trees, there is now. Where the sight and smell and sound of cows and sheep and goats were nonexistent a moment before, that moment passed into a new reality.
