Memory Verse<\/strong>: 2 Tim 2:19<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topic: <\/strong> Daniel had a heart for his people<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s Reading:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of the Ministry:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we read chapter 9 of Daniel and would immediately notice the kind of heart Daniel had. From this we can further see why God always answered his prayer. The account said Daniel understood by books that the captivity of Jerusalem as prophesied by Jeremiah was to last 70 years, seeing the time had approached and the children of Israel were still under captivity, Daniel decided to pray, seeking the face of God earnestly despite his comfort and position, an angel was then sent, not only to interpret the prophecy of Jeremiah but that of the end of days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like us to remember that Daniel was a eunuch who served in the palace directly with the king during the days of Nebuchadnezzar, he gained so much fame that he was preferred to all the other wise men especially because of his ability to tell the king\u2019s dream. He occupied same position till Belshazzar the son of the king took over, again Daniel was well placed and favored and he was highly honored. When Belshazzar was overthrown and Darius took over, again Daniel was made the head of all the princes and presidents. One may say Daniel lived in luxury as a political figure all through his youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the life of Daniel, we can therefore see a man who had a heart for his people, the account in chapter 9 said he fasted for the fulfilment of Jeremiah\u2019s prophecy that was to end their captivity, when we look at the status of Daniel we may ask ourselves what does he want again in life, he is influential, rich and old, he had lived all his life in affluence and enjoyed freedom of religion, but that was not enough for Daniel; he could not imagine the house of the Lord and the people of God in desolation, he was bothered about the resting place of God on earth which was Jerusalem in those days. When we come to today\u2019s believers, many care less about the welfare of others once they are comfortable, they don\u2019t mind what happens to the larger body of Christ and the wellbeing of other believers. Nothing bothers them about the heavenly Jerusalem knowing we are but pilgrims on earth, they would rather bother about making more money and connections, their heart is far from God\u2019s economy.  Check yourself today, are you living for the body of Christ or for the fulfillment of your personal ambition? Join us this Saturday and Sunday for Peniel by 4pm. Come with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
