Scripture:
Daniel 2:21 "He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning".
Observation:
Daniel is worshiping after God gives him the revelation about King Nebuchadnezzar's dream. While he is worshiping, he makes this powerful statement. He declares that it is God who changes times and seasons and that He removes and sets up kings. Basically, God can do whatever God wants to do. He is in control of everything and has all knowledge.
Application:
If God raises up kings, changes times and seasons, and gives wisdom to the wise, then why do we stress out about whether He can answer our prayers or not? He is the All-Powerful God who holds the universe in His hands. Our problems are nothing for Him. He is able to change every detail of our lives in a split second if He so desires. Imagine the fact that we have the all-powerful God as our heavenly father who loves us as His own children. We are blessed!
Prayer:
Lord, You are amazing! You are the all-powerful God. You raise up kings and they serve at your pleasure. Nothing is beyond you. Help me to pray like someone who believes His Father has unlimited resources and can use them at will. Help me to believe You more for the little things in my life.
Yours,
Jeff
