The morning is frequently mentioned in both the Old and New Testaments, serving as a time of renewal, hope, and the fulfillment of God's promises.<br><br><b>Creation and Order</b><br><br>The morning is first introduced in the creation narrative. In <a href="/genesis/1-5.htm">Genesis 1:5</a>, the cycle of evening and morning marks the completion of the first day: "God called the light 'day,' and the darkness He called 'night.' And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day." This pattern continues throughout the creation account, establishing the morning as a symbol of God's orderly design and the rhythm of life.<br><br><b>Divine Encounters and Revelations</b><br><br>Mornings are often depicted as times when God reveals Himself or His will to His people. In <a href="/exodus/34-2.htm">Exodus 34:2</a>, God instructs Moses, "Be ready in the morning, and come up on Mount Sinai to present yourself to Me there on the top of the mountain." This encounter underscores the morning as a time of divine revelation and covenant renewal.<br><br>Similarly, in the New Testament, the resurrection of Jesus Christ is discovered in the morning. In <a href="/matthew/28.htm">Matthew 28:1</a>, it is written, "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb." The morning of the resurrection signifies the dawn of a new era and the ultimate victory over sin and death.<br><br><b>Worship and Devotion</b><br><br>The morning is also a time for worship and seeking God's presence. <a href="/psalms/5-3.htm">Psalm 5:3</a> reflects this practice: "In the morning, O LORD, You hear my voice; at daybreak I lay my plea before You and wait in expectation." The psalmist emphasizes the importance of beginning the day with prayer and reliance on God.<br><br>In <a href="/lamentations/3-22.htm">Lamentations 3:22-23</a>, the morning is associated with God's steadfast love and mercy: "Because of the LORD’s loving devotion we are not consumed, for His mercies never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness!" This passage highlights the renewal and hope that each morning brings, reminding believers of God's unchanging faithfulness.<br><br><b>Judgment and Deliverance</b><br><br>The morning can also symbolize judgment and deliverance. In <a href="/exodus/14-27.htm">Exodus 14:27</a>, the morning brings deliverance for the Israelites as Moses stretches out his hand over the sea: "So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to its normal state." The morning light reveals the salvation of God's people and the defeat of their enemies.<br><br>Conversely, in <a href="/isaiah/17-14.htm">Isaiah 17:14</a>, the morning can bring judgment: "In the evening, there is sudden terror! Before morning, they are gone. This is the portion of those who loot us, the lot of those who plunder us." Here, the morning light exposes the consequences of wickedness and the swift justice of God.<br><br><b>Symbol of Christ</b><br><br>In Christian theology, the morning star is a title attributed to Jesus Christ, symbolizing His role as the bringer of light and hope. <a href="/revelation/22-16.htm">Revelation 22:16</a> states, "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the bright Morning Star." This imagery connects the morning with the advent of Christ's eternal kingdom and His guiding presence in the lives of believers.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The morning in the Bible is a multifaceted symbol, representing God's creation, revelation, faithfulness, and the hope of new beginnings. It serves as a reminder of the divine order, the importance of daily devotion, and the ultimate triumph of light over darkness through Jesus Christ.</div></div><div id="centbox"><div
