Scripture:
Daniel 7:27 "Then the sovereignty, power, and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be given to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will last forever, and all rulers will serve and obey Him".
Observation:
Daniel is having visions of the end of time. In this one we see a great picture of what will happen at the end. It basically says that all the kingdoms will be given to the holy people of the Most high. That is us as believers! His Kingdom will then last forever and all the rulers will serve Him. There is a day when things will be different in teh world. Things will not always continue the way they are right now. One day King Jesus will come again with an army following Him on white horses. he will establish His kingdom and rule forever.
Application:
I attended a conference once entitled "Training for Reigning". One day we will rule the earth under the leadership of our Savior. The way we live our lives now will directly affect how we live in eternity. Jesus said that the one who is faithful in a little will be made ruler over much. Training for Reigning really is this: be faithful to do all the Lord has called you to do. Follow Him completely and walk in the Spirit and you will one day rule with Him. What we do now affect how we will spend eternity, let's live lives that will be blessed by our Father.
Prayer:
Lord, I can't wait for Your kingdom to come in it's fulness. I want to see this earth when you reign and rule in righteousness. I am excited about the day you establish your eternal kingdom. You are amazing and this earth will be a different place when You are in charge. Help me to be faithful in every little thing You ask me to do. I want to finish the work You have called me to and not my own work.
Training for Reigning,
Jeff
