The Greatness of Daniel: Additional Qualities of Daniel          

Saturday, March 2nd
 
Text: Daniel 1: 3-6
Key verse: Daniel 1:21 And Daniel continued even unto the first year of King Cyrus
Daniel possessed moral powers. What Nebuchadnezzar never knew was moral power. He didn’t have moral powers. Daniel was above others in moral powers. Daniel was great in godliness. What Nebuchadnezzar never knew was godliness. Daniel was above others in godliness. As we go on in our studies, there are other things Nebuchadnezzar never knew of Daniel. He had additional qualities. His own university said children with five credits but Daniel had nine credits. Above the required five credits. So, this is the man called Daniel.  Daniel was great in humility. This is the man with additional qualities of humility. Daniel was a great lover of God. Additional qualities; love for God, were in Daniel. 
Does God make a man like that? Sure. Now the question is, if a common king needs people of these qualities, what about the King of kings?¬¬¬¬ What qualities of people would He desire to stand before Him? But you are not building up yourself, you are not creative, you are not adding to yourself, you are not acquiring more for yourself to stand before this God. You are not applying your intelligence to Christianity. You are not productive. You are not inventive in the life of holiness. Do you know the qualities of the men that will enter heaven, to stand before the eternal King? These are qualities requested by a mortal king, what about the immortal King? Do you think you qualify actually to stand before the great God?  Do you think that He is taking everybody? Now even these qualities were not enough. 
Reading from Daniel 1:5, we discover that even these inherent, natural, self-developed qualities were not enough. Additional work had to be done on them to qualify them to stand before the king; teaching them the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans. I want to teach them not only the language and learning of Babylon, but I will also teach unto them the ancient things to qualify them to rule with me. 

Thought for the day: Are you in God’s school of training for heaven? 

Song for the day: I want to be like Daniel (3x), to follow Jesus Christ

Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 28-29

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
