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

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
