What hardships are you willing to endure for the sake of your Christian faith? When the rubber meets the road, will you be a person who is bold for the Lord or bashful about Him? These are the kinds of questions that confronted Hananiah, Azariah, and Mishael when they were asked to bow down to an image of gold. How will you handle similar situations when your faith gets challenged? We have a lot to learn about FAITH, COURAGE, and UNWAVERING DEVOTION from these three men.

Kings come and go. Kingdoms rise and fall. But the Kingdom of our Lord will be established forever. This is the dream that Nebuchadnezzar has, and Daniel interprets, in Daniel 2. It is a reminder for us that God is sovereign over everything—including the nations of the earth; that He is coming again; that we can entrust our lives and our future to Him! Join Pastor Gary for today’s study about the history and prophecy of world kingdoms.

This is a Biblical principle: if we live a life that honors and glorifies God, He will take care of us, bless us, and use us for His glory. Daniel and his three friends certainly found this to be true. When faced with multiple challenges and difficulties, Daniel remained committed to the Lord. As a result, the Lord took care of him, the Lord blessed him, and the Lord used him for His glory. The same is true for us. Follow along in today’s study with Pastor Gary entitled, “Faithfulness Rewarded.”

Our world is constantly trying to squeeze us into its mold. Our faith, our values, and our principles will be regularly challenged by an environment that is often contrary to ours. Daniel was a young man who was thrust into a different culture with different values that conflicted with his relationship with God. But he never wavered in his faith. He knew who he was in the Lord. He lived in Babylon but he would not allow Babylon to live in him. May the same be true for us in our world!

The last nine chapters of Ezekiel deal with the “Kingdom Age” (also known as the “Millennial Reign”) when Christ returns to the Earth to rule and reign for 1000 years. What will life be like during that time? Where will Christians be and what will we be doing? Pastor Gary unpacks the closing chapters of Ezekiel as we look into the future concerning the Second Coming of Christ and the Millennial Reign.
