Today I read this..... Very impactful and encouraging to my own convictions. Christians, Family, friends, get serious! ? Trust God and His True Word. Live for Him.
*"Remember who you are.
The crisis for Daniel was not merely one of personal preference and taste, but of identity itself. His sense of self was in his relationship with the God of Israel and his linkage with His covenant people. Identification with Nebuchadnezzar and the Chaldean worldview would be a violation of Daniel’s personhood."
*"Dig in.
Daniel had “made up his mind” at the outset of his long stay in Babylon not to defile himself. He dug in and maintained that stance all the way.
Toward the end of his life, messengers of God — angels — show Daniel the course of history, and tell him, “go your way to the end; then you will enter into rest and rise again for your allotted portion at the end of the age.”
May it be so for us as well as, like Daniel, we carry out our mission in the present Babylonian world system with its “Chaldeans,” temptations, and trials.". https://www.christianpost.com/....news/how-to-resist-t
