Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me

Monday November 27th, Daniel 7: Then I continued to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. The other beasts had been stripped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period of time. The horn is the mouthpiece of the power of this world, the mouthpiece of military might. God's vision is that there is no place for it in the kingdom of God, the kingdom of the future. Other temptations are still around, but their time is limited also. When we catch this vision for God's future world, it is hard to get all caught up in the power plays of this world. God's future is a world of peace; perhaps we should start living that now.
