ANGLICAN COMMUNION DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.
The Topic of Daily Fountain Devotional for 8th November 2024 Is “Revelation, Wisdom And Might Come From God ”
Read: Daniel 2: 14-23(NKJV)
14 Then with counsel and wisdom Daniel answered Arioch, the captain of the king’s guard, who had gone out to kill the wise men of Babylon;
15 he answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, “Why is the decree from the king so urgent?” Then Arioch made the decision known to Daniel.
16 So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him time, that he might tell the king the interpretation.
17 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the decision known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions,
18 that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19 Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
20 Daniel answered and said: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His.
21 And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding.
22 He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, And light dwells with Him.
23 “I thank You and praise You, O God of my fathers; You have given me wisdom and might, And have now made known to me what we asked of You, For You have made known to us the king’s demand.”
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 8TH NOVEMBER 2024.
Daniel and his companions were faced with a very challenging and life-threatening situation. Nebuchadnezzar had ordered the execution of all the wise men in Babylon because they could not tell or interpret his mystery dream. Daniel and his colleagues, as part of the wise men in Babylon, were to be executed.
To avoid this, Daniel, by counsel and wisdom from God, engaged Arioch the king’s chief guard in a conversation. He (Daniel)requested for more time to seek the Lord for intervention. After this, Daniel, together with his companions and prayer partners, earnestly sought the mercies of God in prayers. Like Daniel and his companions, we face challenges in our Christian journey.
We must learn from Daniel who sought the face of God for revelation and how God in His mercy revealed the secrets. You need to have prayer partners for spiritual support. Daniel acknowledged that the revelation came from God, hence he returned praise and glory to Him. It was not an opportunity for him to boast of his spiritual gifts and prowess. Indeed, revelation, wisdom and might come from God.
PRAYER: Help me, O Lord, to continually seek your mercies and be a faithful intercessor
