Daniel 7 and 8: History Revealed
History tends to repeat itself. So do people. Our habits tend to define us. What about our worship? Does worship simply become a habit or is it alive and growing? In history past, worship became dictated by a political/religious power. What about the future? Join us as we explore how this past political and religious power may actually reappear, and force or mandate false worship. Scripture: Daniel 7; Daniel 8; Revelation 5:5-7; Revelation 7:1; Revelation 13:1; Revelation 3:18; John 5:24; 1…
Daniel 5 and 6: Weighed in the Balance
Today, as in ancient times, our society seems to be spinning out of control. In the confusion, God is weighing our action and reaction to both positive and negative events. In the end, when our last day comes, God will weigh our life and make the determination, “Are we in Balance or are we Wanting?” “Have we worshiped Him or worshiped self?” Scripture: Daniel 5; Daniel 6; 1 Samuel 2:30; John 5:23; James 4:17 “Daniel 5 and 6: Weighed in…
Daniel 4: Testimony of a Monarch
Nebuchadnezzar was the monarch of the Golden World Power Babylon and the builder of one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. He had a problem with pride and self-worship. Today we all strive to be the king or queen of our own little kingdoms. We all struggle with pride and self-worship. Just like King Nebuchadnezzar we need to humble ourselves before the King of Kings and ask Him to give humility and love for all people. Scripture: Daniel 4, Revelation…
Daniel 2 and 3: Honor God Above All Else
Scripture clearly states that if we will honor God, He will honor us. Daniel and his three friends are a great case study regarding this promise. Because Daniel honored God in chapter 1, he was given the opportunity to be God’s voice in chapter 2. Because Daniel’s three friends honored God, they were given the opportunity to declare His faithfulness to the world in chapter 3. Today we are being asked to honor God above all else. Is that something you…
Worship God No Matter the Situation
The debate or conflict between true and false worship is as old as the world itself. Some may even say it is older than that. In Daniel, we see the issue of worship played out in the life of one young man and his three friends. This role-play is expanded to include the whole earth and even the heavens. Worship is foundational to our relationship with God. Are the issues of yesteryear confined to the archives of time or do they…
Gotta Get to Jesus
Jesus had compassion on humanity! Over and over again, scripture records that Jesus was moved with compassion and worked on behalf of humanity because of it. People all over the place picked up on that and had to get themselves for others to Jesus. What about you and me? Are we filled with so much compassion for humanity that we work on behalf of the hurting? Do people see so much Jesus in you and me that they Gotta Get…
His Father, My Father, Your Father, Our Father
Father or Abba was the favorite way Jesus referred to the God of heaven. In the gospels, Jesus invites us to also call God, Father or Abba. Abba means Daddy. Jesus invites us to pray, Our Daddy who art in heaven… Sounds strange? Join us Sabbath as we explore this reality.
