Daniel’s Prayer

Today’s Feast Sep. 17, 2014- Daniel 9 Daniel’s Prayer clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily.  We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.  Gods Not Dead! “14 "But when you see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.”  Mark 13:14 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Daniel Chapter 9; “Daniel considers the time of the captivity. (1-3) His confession of sin, and prayer. (4-19) The revelation concerning the coming of the Messiah. (20-27) Verses 1-3 Daniel learned from the books of the prophets, especially from Jeremiah, that the desolation of Jerusalem would continue seventy years, which were drawing to a close. God's promises are to encourage our prayers, not to make them needless; and when we see the performance of them approaching, we should more earnestly plead them with God. Verses 4-19 In every prayer we must make confession, not only of the sins we have been guilty of, but of our faith in God, and dependence upon him, our sorrow for sin, and our resolutions against it… The humble, fervent, believing earnestness of this prayer should ever be followed by us. Verses 20-27 An answer was immediately sent to Daniel's prayer, and it is a very memorable one… This seals the sum of prophecy, and confirms the covenant with many; and while we rejoice in the blessings of salvation, we should remember what they cost the Redeemer. How can those escape who neglect so great salvation!.” - Matthew Henry Concise.  Gabriel tells Daniel the Chosen Leader will be broken and killed (see Daniel 9:20-27) then a foreign rulers army will leave the city and the temple in ruins; “26 And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed. 27 And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator."” Daniel 9:26-27 English Standard Versions (ESV).  The Holy Spirit still speaks to believers today (see John 14:26) through God’s Word and our conscience. We are to walk in love and imitate Jesus as we carry the good news; “1 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.” Ephesians 5:1 ESV. We must turn away from sinful talk (see 1 Timothy 1:19) and keep faith in Jesus with a good conscience.  No matter where or how you serve our Lord (see 1 Corinthians 13:1) we must do so in love with a good conscience.  Keep prayerfully reading God’s Word as often as you can (see Romans 10:17) because this is how we grow stronger in our faith.
