The Time of the End

Scripture:

 “But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.”” ‭‭Daniel‬ ‭12‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

Daniel was given his messages from the Lord and was told to seal up his book until the time of the end. He was told several times that at the end of time, understanding would come of everything Daniel had seen. Today I want to focus on the words, “when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.” This simple description of the end is powerful when we look at it today, but probably didn’t mean much to those of Daniel’s time. Now, people are rushing here and there continually and knowledge is increasing at incredible rates. We are most definitely living in the days Daniel prophesied about.

Application:

As we see the signs of the times we are living in, we must focus more in on God and His mission in the world. Now is not the time for halfheartedness. Now is the time for full surrender to the call and cause of Jesus. We must get active concerning the things of God and give ourselves to the accomplishment of His purposes in the world around us.

Prayer:

Father, as we all in these last days, I ask You to walk with me daily. Let my heart be pure before You and let me hear Your voice each and every day. Let my steps be ordered of You. Let me now waste away the days I live in but let me be used for Your purposes and Your kingdom in the earth. Show me things to come as You did with Daniel. Let me be prepared for everything coming on the earth in these days Daniel described so accurately.

Yours,

Jeff
