Daniel 9:1-3Jeremiah 25:11; 29:10-11 – Daniel must have been reading these verses.We must train ourselves to think about spiritual things and make time to pray.I Thessalonians 5:16-18Daniel 9:4-15God is just.
The Israelites were being punished for their sin – not for no reason.Deuteronomy 28:1-2, 15 – The people knew the arrangement God had made with them.Hosea 4:6Romans 3:3-5; Psalms 51:4Let us revere God!We are guilty.
Daniel 9:5, 8 – We need to be honest like this with ourselves.I John 1:8I Peter 3:21Psalms 51:12It is good for us to feel guilty when we sin because that motivates us to come back to God.“O Lord, forgive!”
