Day 232 - Daniel Friday (chapters 7-12)
“And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” (Daniel 12:2 ESV)
Daniel’s vision focuses on the end of time. This is a topic most people don’t want to consider. They would rather mimic an ostrich and bury their heads in the sand. And what is the result of such foolishness?
While the popular notion about ostriches is a myth, the results of burying our heads in the sand when it comes to the things of God is extremely foolish. The facts are these:
● Either you trust in Jesus for forgiveness and heaven, or you don’t.
● Either you will die and go to heaven (Luke 6:23; Philippians 3:20),
or you will wind up in hell (Matthew 10:28) .
● Either you will believe the truths of God or the myths of man.
Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Jesus to the cruel cross as payment for my sins. Help me to live the rest of my with an eye on the future. Help me to not ignore and deny Your gracious gift of heaven for all who believe. Have mercy on me, and take me to heaven in Your time, Amen.
Pastor David Paape
