DANIEL THE YOUTH THAT PURPOSED TO REMAIN HOLY

God bless you, as you take your time to study 

TOPIC: DANIEL THE YOUTH THAT PURPOSED TO REMAIN HOLY 

TEXT: Daniel 1: 1-6 

TUESDAY JULY 12

Key verse: Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Many eat and drink all manner of food without exercising caution thereby eating and drinking unto damnation. Some of this food or drinks are those sacrificed to idols and some are given to initiate people into Satanism. Some food and drinks are given to people in exchange for their souls at parties, in the neighbourhood, in the offices, in schools, celebrations. Ritualists are on a rampage today, seeking every means to make money. We should exercise care in collecting and eating food from every source that comes our way. 
Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he will not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the Eunuchs that he might not defile himself. 
Daniel requested for only fruits, vegetables and water as against the polluted meals of the king. At the end of ten days, the four Hebrew children looked better than those who ate the king’s meal. God gave Daniel exceptional qualities that made him different from Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams, aside from the knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom that God gave to four of them.
When King Nebuchadnezzar threatened to kill all the wise men of Babylon, he was the one God used to appease the king and save the life of the rest of the wise men by seeking the face of God to bring out the dream and its interpretation. Daniel was also a prayer warrior always facing the location of Jerusalem to pray. He was courageous even at the threat to bow down and worship another god or be thrown into Lion’s den. He continued to serve his God and remained holy.

Thought for the day: Be thou example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Song for the day: O Lord who delivered Daniel (3x) O Lord deliver me.

Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 7-9; Acts 17:1-15

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
