Today's Reading: Daniel 7
►Click HERE to view today's "Word from the Word"
Our lives
are not merely a series of temporal victories and struggles, but rather, they
are an integral part of the eternal reign of our Lord Jesus Christ! Just as
Daniel's vision in chapter 7 so beautifully illustrates, Jesus is not just a
historical figure or a religious leader, but the sovereign ruler of all
creation - now and forevermore!
This
glorious verse declares that to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom,
so that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is
an everlasting one, never to pass away, and His kingdom is one that shall not
be destroyed. Oh, the majesty and splendor of our King!
As we
anchor our faith in this unshakable truth, let us not be swayed by the
tumultuous winds of change that buffet our lives. For in the midst of chaos and
uncertainty, we can find secure refuge in the knowledge that Jesus holds all
power and authority.
Let us
examine our hearts and minds and ask ourselves if we have been placing our
trust in temporary things, such as worldly success, relationships, or
possessions. May we redirect our focus to the One who truly matters,
recognizing that His kingdom surpasses all others.
As we
navigate the challenges and uncertainties of life, let us hold fast to the
comforting truth of today’s key verse. Let us share this hope with others,
inviting them to join us in the eternal kingdom of Christ. May our lives bear
witness to His reign, drawing others to the love and salvation found only in
Him.
If we face
opposition or doubt, let us remember that Jesus is the ultimate victor, and His
kingdom will never be destroyed. Just as Daniel remained faithful in Babylon,
despite the prevailing culture, let us stand firm in our faith, trusting in the
eternal dominion of our King.
Soon, the
day will come when the seventh angel will blow his trumpet, and the voices in
heaven will cry out, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of
our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever."
(Revelation 11:15) Oh, what a glorious day that will be! Let us live each day
with the anticipation and assurance of that coming day, and may our lives be a
testament to the eternal reign of our King, Jesus Christ.
