People have worshipped and praised God’s name “forever and ever.” People always will. Daniel said God is worthy of all praise because he is—and owns—all things. God owns and authors every word of wisdom this world will ever need. God is mighty and able to accomplish his will and his ultimate plan for this world. 

Times change and, like the seasons, come and go. The “kings” of this world are allowed power and then their power is removed. Their authority is temporary and God’s is eternal. The God that has been worshipped and praised throughout history is the God we will worship and praise in heaven. 

If we are wise, we will seek to receive God’s wisdom. When we want understanding, we will ask God to give us his thoughts. Wisdom, might, and understanding belong to God, and because of his love and mercy he wants to give those things to his children. 

Blessed is the name of the Lord, forever and ever. Blessed are those who walk in the name of the Lord because they will be blessed forever. Everything in our earthly life is temporary, except the things of God. Maybe that’s why God created the seasons as he did. 

February is the shortest month, and for most of us that’s a good thing. Februarys never last forever. Somewhere under the frozen ground are the flowers we will enjoy in the spring. God controls the seasons, and he always brings the next one. We don’t have to see God’s promises to know they will come, in his timing. 

The Lord gives wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Bless the name of the Lord, trusting his wisdom and power are always enough for each day and every season of our lives.
