He is humble. He sees, hears, and understands. He controls.
He rescues. He’s trustworthy. He endures.
He is everlasting. 
He rules. He loves us and sets us free. He is the Alpha and Omega. He is alive. 
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, “Fear not, I am the first and the last, 18 and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades. – Revelations 1:17-18
What beautiful and glorious glimpses of Christ the Son of Man we have in these texts. How the Israelites long to see their Messiah, how John longed to see His Lord, and yet how glorious He is and will be when He comes, that we would fall as though dead before Him. May we have a high and holy view of the Lord Jesus Christ, who holds the key to death and Hades and has been given all dominion and authority and power.
I love this so much! Almost every time Christ appears in the Bible, those who see him faint or fall over which is kind of funny but also signals how overwhelming it must be to see him in person. It’s exciting and nerve-wracking to think about!!
I absolutely love the parallel between Daniel’s vision and John’s vision. With the busyness of this season, it’s easy to lose track and not put God as our main priority. Stay prayerful and remain steadfast, for we do not know when our Lord will come back. I cannot wait for that day when light will defeat darkness forever!
Nebuchadnezzar was humbled until he understood that it is the Most High God is ruler over all mankind and that he sets over it whomever he wishes. What pride can do to me is devastating in its consequences! I pray that my Father keeps me humble. May we all realize that God is sovereign and does whatever he chooses to set up and tear down rulers and kingdoms and ultimately does whatever he chooses with our lives.
welcome Hailey! and Jennifer, we serve a mighty awesome God that produces a reverent fear! praying for you and congratulations on your pregnancy!!!! have a blessed day in the Lord .❇
How action-packed these words are, as much as any modern movie.
24 And the king commanded, and those men who had maliciously accused Daniel were brought and cast into the den of lions—they, their children, and their wives. And before they reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and broke all their bones in pieces.
I feel how Daniel did as he saw these revelations. Any time I read these prophecies my thoughts disturb me, my heart races, almost in a fearful way. It’s silly – anyone else experience this? It’s just so awesome I can’t comprehend it. Perhaps the pregnancy hormones? :[
Please pray I have peace and continue to read with an open mind and joyful heart.
Rev. 1:7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.
Come Lord Jesus, come!

Very much looking forward to the lords coming!

I love the parallel between Daniels vision of the Son if Man (Jesus) and John’s vision of Jesus in Revelation!
5and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth.
To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood

I thought I was the only one lol. I have to read and re-read and ask God to open my mind so that I may understand his word.
So glad to be joining you ladies. I am new to all this.
Rev. 1:7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.
Come Lord Jesus, come!
I’m loving Daniel and excited to dive more into revelations!
I hope everybody has a blessed day! I am continually amazed at how powerful and wonderful our God is!
Bless the Lord! Have a wonderful week.
