Genesis 1:11,12

Genesis1:11,12: Then God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with seed in them, on the earth”; and it was so. And the earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

This is the first instance of God showing His care and love for His creation. He established reproduction in the plant kingdom and saw to it that it was self-propagating. Each type of vegetation or plant produced seeds for its own kind. These seeds would become plants that in turn produced seed and the cyclical process in the plant world was well in place. As originally intended, God’s design of the plant world was such that it would go on eternally. What the plants yielded and what the trees bore would soon have other uses for what was later to become His most beloved act of creation – mankind. In the meantime, our God was preparing the most suitable environment for us.
