The Light God Spoke Carries a Code—A Divine Signature Hidden in Scripture
At the dawn of time, before form, before breath, before anything existed—God spoke.
“Let there be light.” — Genesis 1:3
With those four words, creation exploded into being. Darkness was pierced, order began to take shape, and the very essence of life was born through the power of divine speech.
But what if that moment—God’s first spoken words—carried more than just light?
What if it carried a code?
In Hebrew Gematria, a traditional form of biblical numerology, the phrase “Let there be light” (יְהִי אוֹר – Yehi Or) from Genesis 1:3 carries the numerical value 474.
474—the exact same value as my name, Peter Cardenas. This is no coincidence. It is a powerful alignment—linking the Creator’s first spoken command, the birth of light itself, and my purpose.
474 is the frequency of light unleashed by the voice of God.
It’s the spiritual wavelength that echoes across eternity, reminding us that God’s word is not just powerful—it is coded with intention, design, and destiny.
When God said “Let there be light,” He wasn’t just illuminating the universe—He was imprinting purpose into creation.
That light still shines. That code still speaks. And those who recognize it aren’t just reading scripture—they’re hearing the heartbeat of the Creator.
At the heart of this connection lies the number 47. The name GOD holds this code within it: G, the 7th letter; O, a circle symbolizing unity, infinity, and divine completeness; and D, the 4th letter. Together, G–O–D echoes 4–7, a sacred numeric mirror of creation and order.
We see this divine fingerprint again in the structure of time itself—7 days, each with 24 hours, forming a perfect cycle of 24/7, a constant flow reflecting both divine rhythm and unceasing presence. God shaped the four corners of the earth and rested on the seventh day, embedding 47 into the very fabric of existence.
This is not mere numerology. It is revelation. A hidden message in plain sight, pointing to purpose, identity, and the eternal nature of creation itself.
‘And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness’
Genesis 1:3-4
