Good Morning Monday...
FATHER thank You for this NEW DAY. We ask that you cover us with YOUR MIGHTY HAND. Let us understand YOUR MIGHTY WILL so that we may see YOUR INFINITE GLORY. We ask this in YOUR PERFECT SON YESHUA, JESUS CHRIST's NAME, Amen. - Daniel: An Example King Nebachanezzer of Babylon was on the warpath. He wanted his dream told to him and interpreted. The false prophets, magicians, soothsayers, fortune tellers, and the like said no man could. The king said he would put everyone of them, and the rest of the "wise men," to death if it could not be done. If they couldn't grant the kings request, it meant they were fakes. He had enough, the order went out to execute all the "wise men." When the guards came to Daniel, he asked for time so that he and his companions may seek The "Mercies" from God. Let's take a look: “that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.” Daniel 2:18 NKJV Daniel and friends sought those Mercies and they received. No doubt they were righteous and faithful. We can see the fruit in Daniel's Prayer after the Mercies he sought had been granted by Our Father. Just listen to this: “So Daniel blessed the God of heaven. Daniel answered and said: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His. And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, And light dwells with Him. “I thank You and praise You, O God of my fathers; You have given me wisdom and might, And have now made known to me what we asked of You, For You have made known to us the king’s demand.”” Daniel 2:20-23 NKJV What a beautiful prayer Our Father Has Daniel Teach us. Packed with Truth and overflowing with Praise for The One True God. Daniel and friends knew they could request from Our Father and Yeshua, Jesus Christ, and He Would Deliver them. How did Daniel know? Because Daniel and friends knew this: “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:16 NKJV This is just what Daniel and Friends did. They trusted in The One Who Can Save. No doubt they confessed to one another, lived righteously, knew The Scriptures, and most importantly they obeyed and never took credit for The Wisdom endowed to them. Let's take a look: “Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, “The secret which the king has demanded, the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, and the soothsayers cannot declare to the king. But there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head upon your bed, were these: As for you, O king, thoughts came to your mind while on your bed, about what would come to pass after this; and He who reveals secrets has made known to you what will be.” Daniel 2:27-29 NKJV Daniel gives credit where credit is due... All to God Almighty, Our Father, "He Who Revels Secrets." Daniel obviously prayed for and received: Truth, Discernment, Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding. Let's see what came of his faithfulness in this chapter: “Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, prostrate before Daniel, and commanded that they should present an offering and incense to him. The king answered Daniel, and said, “Truly your God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you could reveal this secret.” Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many great gifts; and he made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief administrator over all the wise men of Babylon. Also Daniel petitioned the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego over the affairs of the province of Babylon; but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.” Daniel 2:46-49 NKJV Our Father is showing us a model here. Daniel does it right. Is he perfect? No, only Our Messiah was. But despite being imperfect like all of us, he disciplined his mind, body, and spirit to be able to Commune With God Almighty and The One True God "made his Paths straight." Pretty awesome, right? I agree and I would like to prepose something. We can all have that Communion! Yahweh, Our Father used His Son, Our LORD and King Yeshua Ha'Mashiach, Jesus Christ, to let us know. He is The Way, The Life, and The Truth. If you Seek Wisdom, Seek Him. And because we know we have access to Him and it is a Free Gift, we say.......HalleluYah!!! Daily Bread Bonus: I think Daniel and Friends had this Proverb memorized and to them it became prophecy. This is what happens when we "Take Instruction" and Live The Word. When we become not just speakers of The Word, but also doers of The Word... Amazing things happen. Let's Take a Look at what Daniel and Friends obviously knew. They got Wisdom, and with that Wisdom... They got Understanding: “He also taught me, and said to me: “Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you.” Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many. I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hindered, And when you run, you will not stumble. Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; Keep her, for she is your life.” Proverbs 4:4-13 NKJV God Bless Everyone and have a Wonderful Yahweh Yeshua Ha'Mashiach Filled Week!!! 😃🙌🔥
