Handwriting On The Wall

Today’s Feast Sep. 13, 2014- Daniel 5 Handwriting On The Wall 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! “24 "Then from his presence the hand was sent, and this writing was inscribed.”  Daniel 5:24 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Daniel Chapter 5; “Belshazzar's impious feast; the hand-writing on the wall. (1-9) Daniel is sent for to interpret it. (10-17)Daniel warns the king of his destruction. (18-31) Verses 1-9 Belshazzar bade defiance to the judgments of God. Most historians consider that Cyrus then besieged Babylon…  The ignorance and uncertainty concerning the Holy Scriptures, shown by many who call themselves wise, only tend to drive sinners to despair, as the ignorance of these wise men did. Verses 10-17 Daniel was forgotten at court; he lived privately, and was then ninety years of age… We should despise all the gifts and rewards this world can give, did we see, as we may by faith, its end hastening on; but let us do our duty in the world, and do it all the real service we can. Verses 18-31 Daniel reads Belshazzar's doom. He had not taken warning by the judgments upon Nebuchadnezzar… Soon will every impenitent sinner find the writing of God's word brought to pass upon him, whether he is weighed in the balance of the law as a self-righteous Pharisee, or in that of the gospel as a painted hypocrite” - Matthew Henry Concise.  Daniel told the king that the days of his reign were ending; (see Daniel 5:18-31 ) he made Daniel the third most powerful man in the kingdom, Daniel was dressed in a purple robe and a gold chain. “30 That very night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed. 31 And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.” Daniel 5:30-31 English Standard Version (ESV).  Daniel didn’t ask for or want a reward (see 2 Kings 5:16) because his reward was serving God. “8 Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.” 1 Peter 3:8 ESV. God’s will for us is to live in harmony with and love our neighbors (see Romans 12:16) never thinking we are better or smarter than others.  The writing is in God’s Word Jesus’ sacrifice (see Romans 3:24) paid everything for our reward.

Nebuchadnezzar Praises God

Today’s Feast Sep. 12, 2014- Daniel 4 Nebuchadnezzar Praises God 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! “2 May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.”  2 Peter 1:2 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Daniel Chapter 4; “Nebuchadnezzar acknowledges the power of Jehovah. (1-18) Daniel interprets his dream. (19-27)The fulfilment of it. (28-37) Verses 1-18 The beginning and end of this chapter lead us to hope, that Nebuchadnezzar was a monument of the power of Divine grace, and of the riches of Divine mercy… Let us diligently seek blessings which can never be taken from us, and especially beware of pride and forgetfulness of God. Verses 19-27 Daniel was struck with amazement and terror at so heavy a judgment coming upon so great a prince, and gives advice with tenderness and respect… And everlasting misery will be escaped by all who repent and turn to God. Verses 28-37 Pride and self-conceit are sins that beset great men. They are apt to take that glory to themselves which is due to God only… Thus the Lord knows how to abase those that walk in pride, but gives grace and consolation to the humble, broken-hearted sinner who calls upon Him.” - Matthew Henry Concise.  King Nebuchadnezzar speaking of his second dream (see Daniel 4:28-37) was humbled and his kingdom was restored; “37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are right and his ways are just; and those who walk in pride he is able to humble.” Daniel 4:37 English Standard Version (ESV).  It is plain to see (see Psalm 75:5-7) all promotions come from God. “4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.” Philippians 4:4 ESV. Our righteousness is a gift from faith in Jesus (see Philippians 3:1) in ourselves without Jesus we would fall short.  We are justified by our faith in Jesus (see Romans 3:24) and not by any other works.  One day we will all fall down on our knees before the Judgment seat of God (see Revelation 4:10) and give Jesus all the glory.

Golden Image

Today’s Feast Sep. 11, 2014- Daniel 3 Golden Image 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! “4 "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.” Exodus 20:4   Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Daniel Chapter 3; “Nebuchadnezzar's golden image. (1-7) Shadrach and his companions refuse to worship it. (8-18)They are cast into a furnace, but are miraculously preserved. (19-27) Nebuchadnezzar gives glory to Jehovah. (28-30)   Verses 1-7 In the height of the image, about thirty yards, probably is included a pedestal, and most likely it was only covered with plates of gold, not a solid mass of that precious metal… By such methods, false worship has been set up and maintained. Verses 8-18 True devotion calms the spirit, quiets and softens it, but superstition and devotion to false gods inflame men's passions… We are to be meek in our replies, but we must be decided that we will obey God rather than man. Verses 19-27 Let Nebuchadnezzar heat his furnace as hot as he can, a few minutes will finish the torment of those cast into it; but hell-fire tortures, and yet does not kill…  Could we but see into the eternal world, we should behold the persecuted believer safe from the malice of his foes, while they are exposed to the wrath of God, and tormented in unquenchable fires. Verses 28-30 What God did for these his servants, would help to keep the Jews to their religion while in captivity, and to cure them of idolatry... He who preserved these pious Jews in the fiery furnace, is able to uphold us in the hour of temptation, and to keep us from falling into sin.“ - Matthew Henry Concise.  God uses King Nebuchadnezzar’s own edict to worship a golden image (see Daniel 3) to show him the true God; “29 Therefore I make a decree: Any people, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego shall be torn limb from limb, and their houses laid in ruins, for there is no other god who is able to rescue in this way." 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.” Daniel 3:28-29 English Standard Version (ESV).  There is only one God (see John 14:6) and we must approach Him in Jesus name. Our help comes from the Lord; “1 I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? 2 My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1-2 ESV. Who do you choose to serve?  There are only two choices (see Matthew 6:24) which one will you choose? Is Jesus calling you? Do you want to answer God’s call?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast is intended to encourage Saints to pray and read every word in the bible!  Let me know if you have any questions or comments, by replying here on the blog or in an email to mike@admenu.com.
