God's all inclusive vision

Sunday November 22nd, Daniel 7: As I looked, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him. Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened. This is one of the visions of the end times in Daniel. It was a vision that helped put in perspective the power and force of one of the mightiest nations in the world. This nation had power, and weapons and might, and was to be feared by all on earth and it ruled by use of that power, military might, influence and money, does that sound the least bit familiar? Compared to the Ancient of Days, the Lord God Almighty however, its power is nothing. This section of Daniel is a call to place ones focus not on the power of this world, but where this world will ultimately be when God is through with it. It is a call to catch the vision of the future and live in that vision now. All of scripture can be summed up in the words, love God, love others. That is the good advice and the God advice for today. What is God’s all inclusive vision for your future? Now live it in your life today.
