It just came to be.

Note that the Bible says the earth was "formless and desolate."

Darkness is the absence of light. Everywhere is full of darkness until light comes in, then levels change.
@OP the most important thing is to make heaven and all your questions will be answered.

FOLYKAZE:

Isaiah 45:7 KJV

God did not create darkness,

I form the light, and create darkness: I
make peace, and create evil: I the
LORD do all these things. ( Isaiah 45:7,
KJV)
evil is not really a created thing. You can't see, touch, feel, smell or hear evil. It is not one of the fundamental forces of physics, nor does it consist of matter, energy, or the spatial dimensions of the universe. The king James put it as if God created evil,the king James was translated 400 years ago during the England medieval period,Use of this translation is problematic these days,the KJV was produced using a limited number of medieval manuscripts that did not represent the earliest Alexandrian set of manuscripts.

Read the modern translations;
The One forming light and creating
darkness, Causing well-being and
creating calamity; I am the LORD who
does all these. ( Isaiah 45:7, NASB)

I form the light and create darkness, I
bring prosperity and create disaster; I,
the LORD, do all these things. ( Isaiah
45:7, NIV)

Isaiah 45:7 contrasts opposites. Darkness is the opposite of light. However, evil is not the opposite of peace. The Hebrew word translated "peace" is shâlôm, which has many meanings, mostly related to the well being of individuals. Râ‛âh, the Hebrew word translated "evil" in the KJV often refers to adversity or calamity. There are two forms of the word. Strong's H7451a most often refers to moral evil, whereas Strong's H7451b
(the form used here) most often refers to calamity or distress. Obviously,
"calamity" is a better antonym of "peace" than "evil."
God is not the author of evil. However,
God does reward and punish on the
basis of good and bad behavior.
Therefore, God does bring judgment and calamity (either directly or through
human authorities) on those who rebel.
God will ultimately judge all people,
since rebels will not be allowed in the
new, perfect creation.

Op.when God created the heaven and earth, I think that include the water because the water and land have not been separated until God created the universe.genesis was like a summery to the creation story, as you continue to read the bible details will be given to you by the help of the holy spirit,
Infacte genesis say darkness cover the earth but did not give reason Why was the earth dark? Genesis one does not say, but other creation accounts in the Bible do say. In fact, in the book of Job, God Himself tells us the
answer:

"Where were you when I laid the
foundation of the earth? ...When I
made a cloud its garment, And thick
darkness its swaddling band" ( Job
38:4-9)

You have only got to read Isaiah 45:7. It talks about God creating and darkness. What do you think?
Did anything exist before God

By saying "WHO" you have committed a logical fallacy known as "Begging the question" because the "WHO" in your question implies the answer must be a "who" whether it really was a "who" in the first place.

The better and clear way to put it should be "How?" that way the question is open to every possible explanation, answer, argument and possibly study...

light and dark - simply occur by the rotation of the earth, as it spins around its axis while revolving around the sun.
water - it takes molecules of the diatomic hydrogen and diatomic oxygen gas to produce water

wake up Africa, save your future, you need more schools than churches, more libraries than sunday schools.

Who is god? And who created him after darkness and water?

Darkness is the absence of light. Our natural light is generated by the Sun, a star that was formed by gravity 4.6 billion years ago. Our earth is just one of the clumps of matters that failed to unify with other matters that formed the sun. But it happens to rotate around the sun by the action of sun's gravity and spins around its axis. These effects create the darkness we experience.

Water, on the other hand, has two possible origins that are being investigated: through the cooling of the earth 4.6 billion years ago or from alien planetary bodies like comets and asteroid.

It is not darkness. There are different types of darkness. Darkness is a matter on its own. It is ether or plasma or melanin or dark matter, It is not darkness.

It isn't not sci-fi. There is nothing called darkness. Except when we mean nothingness which also never existed. We are only taught 3 matters in chemistry in our europeanized/devolved education which is gas, water and solid. Well, there are four more; Magnetism, Electricity, Light.

Magnetism- Electricity- Light- Ether- Gas- Liquid - Solid. As you can see, Ether is directly in the middle and the 4th condensed matter, It hold together everything. Each matter is furtherly divided into 7. Like there are 7 levels of liquid, each levels is also furtherly divided into 7 and it goes like that without end.

There is nothing called Darkness. Your Mother's womb is dark too without which you won't be here. Where is the source of that womb? or the womb that carried her?
