Scripture:
"Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever."
Observation:
Daniel says here that people who are wise and who lead many to righteousness will shine like the heavens and like stars forever. We are called to be wise and to lead others to Christ. When we do this, we are going to shine.
Application:
This works both directions, when we shine, people are attracted to us. When those people turn to righteousness, we shine more. It is like a circle of influence that grows larger and larger. Our place i to shine the love of Christ everywhere we go. This is wise, and leading people to Christ should be a normal part of our lives. In both cases, we shine more. We should be going from glory to glory, from shining to greater shining.
Prayer:
Lord God Almighty, You are good and Your mercy endures forever! Your faithfulness reaches the sky and Your love never ends. Thank You for working with us this week in the Dominican Republic. We have seen Your glory and Your goodness. Let those who came to Christ this week grow and develop. Let Your kingdom extend here more and more with each passing day.
Yours Forever,
Jeff
