Pray for one another….
Praise is the voice of faith….
With this new round of cancer, I get notes, phone calls, texts, cards, etc saying that they are praying for me…in turn I am doing the same for others…the circle of prayer, concern, praise continues on…
I thought of this while reading Daniel 2…when finding out distressing news, he went to his friends, who in turn prayed with him for answers…he praised God who is in charge of all things…wisdom, power, times, seasons, knows all, sees all, etc…
The chapter may seem to be about the king’s dreams, but it is so much more…it is about the faithfulness of God, the faithfulness of Daniel to God…faithful friends…in the rough times….
Thank YOU….
He asked the king’s officer, “Why did the king issue such a harsh decree?” Arioch then explained the matter to Daniel. At this, Daniel went in to the king and asked for time, so that he might interpret the dream for him.
Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter to his friends Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. He urged them to plead for mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that he and his friends might not be executed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. During the night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision. Then Daniel praised the God of heaven
Dan.2.15-19
and said:“Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever;wisdom and power are his. He changes times and seasons;he deposes kings and raises up others.He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning. He reveals deep and hidden things;he knows what lies in darkness,and light dwells with him. I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors:You have given me wisdom and power,you have made known to me what we asked of you,you have made known to us the dream of the king.”
Dan.2.20-23
We ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love all of you have for one another is increasing.
2Thess.1.3
Faithful One…
