God's Answer - Daniel 9:20-27

Daniel was a man who prayed, and God is a God who answers. In verses 20-27 of chapter 9, God revealed His six-fold plan to Daniel. Just as He desired Daniel to know and understand, He desires the same for us too.

Daniel's Prayer - Daniel 9:1-19

The prayer of Daniel has been preserved for us by the Holy Spirit to study and be encouraged by. Daniel did the most important thing he could do to help his people and that was to pray. May we follow Daniels example of how to pray.

A Ram, A Goat And God - Daniel 8

Daniel has his second vision of a two-horned ram destroyed by a one-horned goat, followed by the history of the "little horn", which is Daniel's code-word for the Grecian General Antiochus Epiphanes, (foreshadow of the coming Antichrist) who invaded the Beautiful Land and defiled the Holy Temple. Even though Daniel was physically affected and deeply troubled by this vision that he could not understand, he still rose up and went about the king's business and we must rise up and be about our King's business.

How Is Your Vision? Your Spiritual Vision That Is? - Ephesians 1: 17-20

Just as we can have an eye impairment that prohibits us from seeing clearly, we can also have a spiritual impairment that dims our view of Truth, our ability to see who we are to God, and darkens the hope we have within us. Paul gives us the needed  prescription that will cause the eyes of our hearts to be opened.

The Vision - Daniel 7

Daniel chapter seven is the most important chapter dealing with end time prophecy in the Old Testament. Some of the events mentioned have already been fulfilled while other major events are yet to be fulfilled. The vision Daniel had was extremely troubling to him. However, included in his vision was the LORD, the "Ancient of Days" who was seated on His throne, who still is and will always be reigning.  If He reigns in your life you are a part of His eternal Kingdom and will one day rule with Him.

There's Life In The Lions Den - Daniel 6

Standing for the Lord is not always easy as Daniel's life reveals. However, if we choose to not compromise even though our culture may try to silence us and if we live unashamed for our God just as Daniel did, we to will find "life in the lion's den."

The Writing On The Wall - Daniel 5

Proverbs 16:18 tells us, "Pride comes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall."  In Daniel chapter 5 we see this scripture fulfilled in the life of Belshazzar, King of Babylon who refused to repent and humble himself even after he saw, "the writing on the wall", written by the hand of the King of Kings. The question for us is, how will we respond to "the writing on the wall?

The Roar Of Victory

Satan thought he had dealt a fatal and final blow, that he had the final word as Jesus hung dying on the cross. However, the enemy couldn't have been more wrong. The Victim became the Victor, Jesus had the final word. It was a shout, the roar of victory when He said..."It Is Finished!" The power of sin and death was defeated and now we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

A Dream And A Tree=Humility - Daniel 4:19-37 Part 2

Solomon wrote in Proverbs sixteen verse eighteen, "Pride comes before a fall." A lesson King Nebuchadnezzar learned the hard way. May we learn more quickly to live humbly before the God who rules and reigns over the whole earth and over us. In so doing we will live a life of fulfillment and  purpose.
