“’Thus he said: ‘The
fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different
from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down
and crush it.
“’As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings
will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from
the previous ones and will subdue three kings.
He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the
Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in the law’
and they will be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time.
“But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion
will be taken away, annihilated and destroyed forever [consumed]. Then the sovereignty, the dominion and the
greatness of all the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be given to the
people of the saints of the Highest One; His kingdom will be an everlasting
kingdom, and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.’ At this point, the revelation ended.’” Daniel 7:23-27
No one can know the future except the One who creates it as
He works out His plans for our good and His glory. No one can stop His hand or ask Him for an explanation. Scripture prepares us to be
strong.
Today, we face growing actions
meant to establish a ‘global – one-world government’. This new ‘world order’ will eventually be ruled
by a ruthless and dishonest leader who promotes disinformation. The ruler will lead the world to destroy God’s
principles and pursue, vilify and marginalise God’s children.
Take care with love, especially His! Your servant and friend in Christ, who still
prays for you each morning. Darlene
