You can count on God

You can count on God. Here’s one more way you can know that… One fifth of the books of the Bible are prophetic in nature. God tells us things that will happen, before they happen and what He will do before He does it. Many of the events His prophets have described have already happenedContinue reading “You can count on God”

“My god” always agrees with me

Daniel supernaturally described Nebuchadnezzar‘s dream down to the toes of the image Nebuchadnezzar had seen, and then Daniel interprets all that the dream meant. He tells Nebuchadnezzar that the dream and its meaning had been revealed to him by God. (Daniel 2:27-49) Before we talk about the dream itself, let’s think about Nebuchadnezzar’s reaction.

For three years, they would be given the best of the best of the king’s delicacies and wine. But Daniel. He purposed in his heart not to defileContinue reading “Purpose in Your Heart”

Who are you?

Perhaps now, more than any other time in our lives, we have to remember who we are because of Jesus. Just after their capture, the chief eunuch changed the names of Daniel and his three friends. This name change was part of the enemy’s ploy to change their hearts and turn them from the OneContinue reading “Who are you?”

The book of Daniel

Six hundred years before the birth of Jesus, the Mayan culture is flourishing in Mexico, construction begins on the Acropolis in Athens, Aesop writes his fables, Confucius and Buddha live, and Italy is introduced to the olive tree by the Greeks (personally, I love Italian food and I’m happy for this introduction). During this time,Continue reading “The book of Daniel”
